Bouncing Baby Boy!

Last week we had our big ultrasound and found out that this little babe is a boy! It was an extremely exciting day and we couldn't be happier. As I have said many times before, we would have loved to have another girl. Mckinley is amazing and sisters would have been fun to experience. At the same time however, Kevin and I both really wanted to be able to experience a boy too--and obviously Kevin is a little extra excited by this boy news! :)  It just seems so unreal that we are actually having a boy. It is almost like it is our first child again because boys and girls are so different. It was funny because throughout this pregnancy I was hoping for a boy, but I felt so guilty for feeling that way. I honestly would have been happy with a second girl, but the thought that I could have had even an ounce of disappointment, no matter how short lived it would be, was really unnerving to me. I had a feeling this baby was a boy though (I also felt that way with Mckinley too though so apparently my "feelings" don't really mean much). Really all I had to go on was that this pregnancy has been really different than with Mckinley. No we know though--BOY!!

So on to other exciting news...this little baby has a name! We had debated back and forth since almost the moment we found out I was pregnant. With Mckinley we knew what her name would be the day we had the ultrasound. With this baby it took us until the night of the ultrasound to really nail down what name we wanted. So, without further ado, this little baby will be Kyan Dane Hinton. The name Kyan because we love it and do not know anyone named Kyan, and Dane because it is a combination of both grandpa's middle names (Dean and Wayne). Hopefully other people like the name as much as we do, but really I don't care...we like it! :)

Kyan has brought on blog issue though---what to do about this blog name. I do not know if I really even thought about this issue when I originally named it, but it does now seem to present a problem. So sometime soon I will have to address this issue...stay tuned I guess!


And....here he is in black and white:

Also, here is a short video that I took at the ultrasound with my phone. You aren't suppose to bring in cameras, but when the tech was out of the room I stole this anyways! The video is a little weird since it is looking face on at the baby. It is also pretty cool though because you can watch him opening and closing his mouth--you can even see his tongue!
