It's All in the Name

So lately we have been really thinking about what we are going to name our precious little man. We love the name Koen Wesley Blue and I think we have finally settled on the spelling. Koen in German and means bold, daring, and a wise counselor. I think he can be all of those things. He is also being named after Wes' grandfather, Wesley Fetgatter, whom we just lost and love very much. I look forward to telling him where his name came from and about the wonderful man he is named after. Oh, and Koen is also named after his father, my husband, who is also a very wonderful man and a great husband!

The Strangest Feeling

On Wednesday I had the strangest feeling. I have been feeling my little guy kick for quite a while, in fact I think he may be a martial artist. On Wednesday, however, I experienced a first because I had never seen him kick and feel him at the same time. Is was amazing to watch him kick on the ultrasound monitor and feel it. Wes and I were laughing at him because his legs were hinged back the whole time ready to send me kicks. We also laughed because at the beginning of the ultrasound he was moving around like a crazy man and then suddenly stopped and fell asleep. It is amazing how much you can love someone without seeing them on anything but a black and white blurry monitor. Here is a picture of his precious profile and a video from that ultrasound.
