The secret is out- Tiny Tuttle is a beautiful, healthy baby boy! At 16 weeks we weren't scheduled to find out the sex until November 1st but after a blood screen last week revealed elevated AFP levels, we were asked to come in for a level two ultrasound. After a 45 minute ultrasound that checked every inch of the baby from his head to his toes and everything in between, the doctors concluded that Nugget is completely healthy and in fact a male. Of course I needed verification so after some poking and prodding, he finally turned over so we could see him in all of his glory. While I thought my heart was set on a girl, I didn't feel a smidge of disappointment and in fact, I'm absolutely thrilled! As the ultrasound showed, he's an active little guy and we're already talking about what sports he'll play (right now we're leaning towards golf and soccer). The ultrasound tech also mentioned that he has a 'beautiful brain' so I believe he'll be the total package- sorry ladies, he's already spoken for as we're in talks with the Smith's about an arranged marriage to their sweet Charlotte Ives. As for a name, we decided on Friday- Jackson Stephen Tuttle. Jackson is a nod to my dad's dad Jack and Stephen is Marcus's middle name as well as his dad's so it's a nice blend of both families. Hope you like it but if you don't, keep it to yourself! :)
