And it's a...

BOY!!!
That's a little tinky-winky you're lookin' at folks!

We are just coming home from an amazing anniversary celebration. We stayed downtown at the Conrad Hotel and had dinner at St. Elmos. Doug & I decided to eat at the local landmark, because we can't call ourselves bona fide Hoosiers and not have eaten there before. Doug opened the sealed envelope at dinner and we have just been on cloud 9 since.

We slept in this morning and walked to breakfast at Cafe Patachou. From there we headed to Keystone at the Crossing for some shopping and lunch at the Cheesecake Factory.

We have decided on a name, in case you are interested... With all of the Lebron hype this weekend, we were leaning towards Lebron James Reusser, but have opted for Elijah Stone Reusser. Elijah means the Lord is my God, I just love this! We will call him Eli. Stone is for Phyllis's father, Grandpa John.

It's still so hard to wrap my head around this pregnancy and knowing I'm brewing a little champ inside me right now. I feel so blessed to be healthy and to know that in a few short months, we will be welcoming our son into our family. Thank you for your continued prayers.
