Drumroll, please.

And it's a BOY!

That's right, Kirk will get his little surfing buddy!  We are so, so excited and can't believe it's really a little boy in there, not just some gender-ambiguous being.  With this being our first, we really weren't hoping for one or the other, and now we are just getting excited for all kinds of fun boy stuff in the future.  

The ultrasound was fun - it seemed like the second the technician touched the probe to my stomach, she said, "Oh, it's a boy!  Definitely!"  It happened so quickly, Kirk and I were both a little caught off guard.  But we recovered quickly and were happy our little guy was so cooperative!  That being said, he was moving around all over the place, and quickly!  The technician got all the pictures she wanted, but remarked that she had to take them quickly or he would move the next second.  He's going to be an active one, that's for sure.  

 Uh, yep.  Definitely a boy in there!

He's just adorable already.

We are overjoyed and can't wait to welcome this little guy into our family.  Kirk is already planning his first surf sesh.  Welcome little man Lindahl!  We can't wait to meet you.
