We decided to get a genetic testing done with this one. The test checks the thickness of the spinal cord. If it's too think it is an indication the baby might have Down Syndrome. Thankfully, the spinal cord was the right size. With that testing, the technician wanted to try to look at the anatomy of the baby to make sure everything looked good. When the tech put the wand over its 'private part', it was no guessing game to say the least. As clear as day, my baby had wankie- a penis! Kevin, Noah, and I were SO excited! We couldn't stop smiling for days!
Kevin and I are going to have the best of both worlds- A beautiful daughter and a handsome son. :)

Coronado Beach and Laguna Beach (May 2011)
I know, it has been forever since I have blogged! Shame on me! Let me start where I left off from my blog 2.5 months ago!
On our last two days of vacation we decided to hit the beach. The beach we went to that day was Coronado Beach. Let me tell you, it is the most gorgeous place I have ever been to in my entire life. Since it was FREEZING. We spent most of the time playing in the sand and running from the waves. We played for hours. Since you can see Mexico from the beach, we decided to drive down to see how close we could get. Everything on the other side of the boarder looked so beautiful and completely blew my mind that on the other side of a fence how different our cultures are. On our way back to downtown Coronado, Kevin wanted to stop at a Pizza shop he had when he went on a duty here a year or so back. It was the most delicious pizza I had ever had with the most expensive price I had seen for a pizza! - $55 for a large pepperoni! That evening we were wore out and decided to head back to the hotel where my dad and grandparents were to go to sleep since the next day was our last day and we wanted to visit one more beach before our drive.
The next day my dad and grandparents decided to head back to Tennessee which meant Kevin, Noah, and I would be headed to Laguna Beach by ourselves. Oh, what another beautiful place to be. Those waves were killer compared to the day before. The temperature was a good 15 degrees higher which made the beach experience for a 3 year old very enjoyable. After playing, we decided to hit the shopping malls on the other side of the beach. Ahhhh what is there not to love about shopping and the beach atmosphere?! Noah loved every minute of it as did I. Spending quality time with my sweet husband and daughter is always such a blessing! After shopping for a couple hours, we decided we HAD to hit the road to head back to Phoenix. We stopped at a Del Taco for a quick and easy supper before getting on the interstate that was amazing. We had never ate there before and we were quite surprised how good it was. It put Taco Bell to shame actually! It took Noah no time to pass out for the night- this vacation wore her out! We got home around 12am and Kevin and I both passed out as soon as we got into bed!
The next day we were supposed to go to a Diamond Backs/Braves game, but Kevin came down with a 24 hour stomach virus or food poisioning so we gave those tickets away. I was so bummed for him because he was so excited about going and those tickets were his ALS graduation present from Noah and I. Bless his heart, I still feel bad he had to miss it. :(
