Lizzy & I went to the hospital for a baby ultrasound scan yesterday. We thought we'd be in and out in a couple of minutes but apparently they take hundreds of photos and dozens of measurements for first the radiographer, then the midwife to check, and that takes an hour. It was a dimly lit and warm room, so on a cold winter's afternoon we both just wanted to fall asleep! We didn't really understand what was going on, apart from not just one, but two sonographers telling us the gender of the baby.
Yes, it's Terry not Terri. They seemed very sure about that.
Psalm 127:3 reads: Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him. So that's cool.
Obviously, I'm already hoping Terry's a cricketer. Opening bat preferably, but any position is fine. And my mum has kindly said England or the Black Caps is fine! Good on ya mum!
Here's Terry with his head on the left, facing upwards, and belly on the right, spine at the bottom, and right arm over his mouth (apparently):
But I do need to clear up one matter which has become a confusion for some - 'Terry' is only a code-name. Seems a lot better than 'bump' (one of our friends has 'Percy the Parasite'!?!) We don't actually like the name Terry that much, (no offence to Terry readers) and he'll have a new name come the summer. Of course, we're open to sponsorship rights for the naming of our child......

Tim (and Lizzy!) glad to hear all is going well. Careful about what you say on the sponsorship deals for the name... someone might take you up on it - this guy sold his future child's name for a us$100 petrol voucher!!! http://www.cfnews13.com/News/Local/2008/7/11/man_sells_unborn_childs_name_for_gas_card.html
Warning duly noted!
But let me turn it around and say 'what's it worth to have 'Andy''?!!
Ahhh he looks just like you ;o)
It's so exciting!
