The wait is OVER!!!

Well, it's been a long time since October 10th! (The day we found out we were expecting)

We've prayed for health and we've received that. The ultrasound today looked amazing from what the tech said. The heart was beating beautifully, the skeletal system looked great as well. 

The baby is very active and has been on every ultra sound that we've had. You could see the little hands moving and even appeared as if it was trying to get the thumb in the mouth. It's truly a miracle. I question someone's logic and sanity to say that this isn't life. 

We did find out the gender of the baby! To my knowledge the last time we celebrated the birth of a baby boy that will carry the last name Young was February 9th, 1981. That was my brother Derek. (Correct me if I'm wrong family!)

However around the last part of May or the 1st part of June we will welcome a baby boy into our lives and family! Yes, I'm one excited Papa!

We do covet your prayers throughout the pregnancy. Up to now everything has been extremely well other than some significant sickness that's being experienced from my wife. She's such a trooper and has taken it like a champ! To say I love her is an understatement. She has helped to ground me in so many ways. She's endured mental & emotional turmoil to get to this point. 

19 weeks to go! Thanks for your continued prayers!
