Chris and I had our long ultrasound appointment and don't worry he is still a boy! Not a huge surprise considering how open he was in our last appointment but he is measuring right on schedule however he is a little heavier than I was expecting, but again they are just rough estimates.
Here are our 3D ultrasound pics, in all of them they are his face but his fist was in his face so you can't really see his whole face.
He is also quite the active fellow! usually in the afternoons and early evenings he starts doing, what feels like, a tap dancing routine around my belly and the fun part is you can kind of start feeling it from the outside! The first time Chris felt a little movement was when we were in Park City for my birthday get-away that he surprised me with and we were trying to find out hotel in the dark and I grabbed Chris's hand and put it on my belly and he said that he was feeling something. It seems like everyday he is getting stronger too!
Chris has also been a really great sport and very patient with me and my changing emotions and body. It is so cute to me how concerned he is about my health and the baby's health. I'm no longer allowed to try to climb on the counters to reach mixing bowls anymore and he is always worried about whether or not I'm comfortable.
It's also been fun because I'm quite a bit bigger and I'm finally out of the "kind of looks bigger, but no one knows its because I'm pregnant, not that I just ate a large dinner" phase. People are now asking questions about the growing bump under my shirts. Like when I was first pregnant, I get a few comments that aren't exactly on the kind side, but I have been trying my hardest to just ignore them (girl at bank "o my heck, aren't you due like really soon?" me "umm, no I have about 5 more months...") and just be excited that I still have a few more months for my baby to grow (and get baby's room ready).
So far we have a few names we like, tell me what you think:
Jacob (after Chris's Grandpa)
Jacob (after Chris's Grandpa)
Sawyer
there are more but those are our top two..

The names are good. My personal feeling are if you like the name go with it. It shouldn't matter what others think because its your child. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
Mallory is right; name him whatever you like best. We had thought about names "in tribute", but decided we wanted Keira to be an individual, and I didn't want to think of someone else when I looked at her. Between the two, I would go with Sawyer, as long as you don't give him a middle name like Travis so his initials are STD! :) And I already have a nephew named Jacob. :) But he's YOUR child and we will love him all the same whether you name him Jacob, Sawyer, Christian, Bob, or Sharkbait!
I like them both. Obviously, I am partial to Jacob. I think that is a neat idea!
