Okay, I admit that I photoshopped the violin in there. ;) Still, there was a smudge in the right spot...

Yes, we know that he's actually a he now, and yep, Sydney, I'm expecting him to pop out sometime in early August. Thanks! Now that I've actually seen him squirming around in there and started getting kicked a little, I'm starting to really get excited. And scared! But in a good way, now.

That's a great photo, Patty. Thanks for posting it. I think a lot of people on v.com consider themselves godmothers or godfathers for your baby. I'm one of them.
