Elijah Zion Murphy, first appearance!

Here are the actual ultrasound pictures.....Elijah makes his first appearance. He was being quite a show off. Only a few more months and I can hold him in my arms. And dress him in all of his adorable outfitts. Fun!

What is it!?

It's a boy!! Hoooooray! All I can say is it was the most amazing thing to see my lil man running all over. He kicked at the tech because he didn't like her invading his lil space. It was so life altering to see his little bones all formed and his pretty lips opening and closing. The best part was watching him move his little hand up to his face and try to suck his thumb. God is amazing! And, well, let's just say that he likes so show off what he has. Ha. Spread eagle...waiting to show mommy that he is indeed a lil boy!
Elijah Zion Murphy will be here soon....I can't wait to meet him. Oh, and of course Shawn is exstatic to have a lil buddy.

p.s. i'll post better pictures as soon as i have time to scan them. these are from grandma fox's cell phone!

Here Today Gone To Maui

Well, I have to say that spending your 21st birthday in Hawaii was a-maz-ing! I loved every minute of it! Baby really started moving a lot on the plane ride over and as the days went by I felt the kicking stronger and stronger. I can now say that baby HATES it when I lay on my tummy.

Shawn felt baby kick for the first time in Hawaii. Alie and Mom also got in on the action. Strong lil sucker.

For my birthday we went snorkling...yeah, almost did make it back to land, parasailed, and saw so many dolphins!! It made my birthday! Well, having Shawn there really made it, the dolphins were just a plus. It wasn't too disappointing coming home because the next day we knew we would find out if we were having a boy or a girl. Fun!
