It’s a girl!
by Megan on Tuesday, February 2, 2010 14:24Mark and I are thrilled to announce we are expecting a baby girl this summer! Mark had his surgeries 2 years ago, and we wanted to share this news that after surgery life does go on. We are so excited to have Mark healthy to enjoy the birth of first child. And for those jpoucher’s curious, we were able to conceive naturally without infertility issues (Mark is 34 years old). Below is our ultrasound at 18 Wks that shows us a healthy girl 6″ long and she weighs 1/2 pound. We joked at the ultrasound that it was okay if she didn’t have her colon to just get it out of the way. Oddly enough the doctor didn’t find our humor as funny! Then we explained that Mark doesn’t have his colon, blah, blah, blah and we realized how uncommon it is to not have a colon and that colon humor is just not the funny other than to likes of us!

M&M: Big time congrats! And yes, sometimes humor (especially colon humor) is lost to the rest of the world! I say, embrace it! Doesn’t everybody poop?

Okay, Brevin – since we’ve all gotten personal on this site bowels so Mark and I will guide you about where babies come from. However, we highly recommend you visit this website and read this German picture book from the 1970s that explains the process http://www.thereheis.com/nucleus3.22/?itemid=630 –
