BABY BROXTON IS A BOY!!!
Our 20 week ultra sound went GREAT!!
Obadiah Douglass is healthy and looking good!!
Obadiah is at about 13oz and about 10 inches!!
The due date they are giving us is October 17!!
We are just so blessed by God to have a healthy baby boy!!!
It was SO amazing to see how much Obadiah has grown!!!
We have some GREAT ultra sound pictures that I will be working on getting up on here for you all to view!!
I took Kristi Long's advice about drinking a sugary drink, BUT it did NOT work....the baby was curled up in a ball (Obadiah is like his father, sugar just makes him sleep!)
The nurse was pushing on my belly trying to get him to move!! It was very funny how stubborn our little boy was being (definently a broxton child!)
When the nurse said, "It Is a Boy!" I Responded, "100% boy and 0% girl, or what?!?" The nurse said, "500% boy FULL boy, NO dening that that is NOT a boy!!"
~~~
We were thinking about changing Obadiah's name because we did not have very good comments when we told people what we were thinking about naming our child IF it was a boy (everyone was hoping that our baby would be a girl!), but you know what, it is our baby not anyone else's (besides God) and Obadiah means Servent of God. That is what we hope and pray our child will be, A Servent Of the One and Only True God!!

Thank you all, for your continued prayers for Obadiah and I!!
I just thought I would share this exciting news with you all!!

Ah Praise the Lord that your little Obadiah looks healthy. What an exciting time. And my sweet friend...with the ultrasound giving a due date of only 1 day off of your actual due date.....way to go Mommy....you are doing great!! That is about as near perfect as you can get. Shows even more that you and baby are doing well thus far. We are soo excited for you guys. And as for his name....IN NO WAY would I change it based off of others comments. You have chosen a precious name..and I bet he will fit it perfectly. God has plans for your little boy.....amazing isnt it. You are having a SON....congratulations to you both!! Love ya tons!!
A boy! Yippee! Praise the Lord for a healthy baby! Congratulations!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful news! And I totally agree...don't change his name off of others' opinions/comments. How exciting for you to get some great pictures of your little one.
Great name!!!!Congrats!!!! Keep it up with the gaining weight. It so IMPORTANT you keep gaining. Your babies development depends on it. Praying for You....
I like your name!! I am so happy for you. Boys are a great blessing! We of course did not find out what we are having, but looks like we will end up in the hospital at the same time- seeing as I always go 2-3 weeks over my due date(which is Sept. 29). Ha, anyway, that will be fun! You are looking really cute, that little belly is adorable!!! Love ya!
(my word verification for this: swells! does that mean anything preggo lady?! Lol!!)
