Solomon it is!

We had our first 'official' ultrasound today. I am happy to report that the results actually caused a sense of real excitement in me ... a thing I haven't experienced in a LONG while. We are having a boy! (as you may have guessed from the title of this blog) We chose the name Solomon Honour as soon as we found out we were expecting (it would have been Harmony Honour had it been another girl). Today we also decided to add Jon as a second middle name in honour of my brother Jon whom Garron and I spent so much time with down at school. I would LOVE to be able to show my respect for all of my brothers by naming our son after them but that would get a tad long. Let's see just for fun:

Solomon Honour Mark David Jon Peter Rish.

Yep, too long. Oh, and we can't forget Garron's brother Darren! Phew. That WOULD be a mouthful.
Anyways, we are very pleased to be carrying the last hope for preserving the Rish last name. There are no other boys. Our due date is still around the 12th of June. (I was hoping to be told it would be much earlier ... but no such luck) This really puts a strain on being able to get to Pete's wedding! But I'm not giving up Pete. I definitely will do ALL I can to be there!

Ok, I've gotta go back to the ultrasound place to have get my 4D cd of today's appointment fixed. The tech only copied the view of the 'proof' of the baby's gender and forgot to put the view of the head and body on too. Without the rest of the picture it just doesn't seem quite right!

yay! now that is exciting! garron will be pretty glad to have another man around the house i bet.:) june 12th seems far away but it will go fast. i really should have sent char home with our little boy clothes....someone needs to come visit and bring them home for you, wish it was us but i don't think it would work out... someday though. maybe when solomon is 1, huddy is 2 and jo is 3.

Congratulations Amy and Garron! That's awesome your hope for a boy came true. I hope he's early, though, so all of you can make it to the Dominican! So happy for you both. Kate
