Since having a baby, I don't always have time to blog about what's happening in my life. However, I always have my iPhone with me to capture some of life's most precious moments. Subscribe to our family YouTube channel to see these events unfold in real time.

    The BIG Ultrasound!

    There are certain things you dream about when you're a little girl. At the top of that list are your future children. First, you say how many you want, then how many boys versus girls... and finally, you list your favorite names.

    I've always wanted at least one of each, a boy and a girl. Preferably in that order.

    As you grow older, your list starts to evolve. You realize how precious life really is, and you begin praying for more selfless things... like the health of your baby.

    All these thoughts were racing through my mind today during our BIG ultrasound. Please God, let there be five fingers and five toes. Please let the baby's heartbeat be normal and its brain be functioning well.

    And God, if it's not too much to ask, can you please give us a healthy baby, that's also a boy?

    That would be perfect.

    I am so happy!!!I knew Sunny was having a boy. He's beautiful and I can't wait to meet him. Congratulations Ryan & Sunny. He looks like a football playing, baseball throwing, mini fisherman to me. I also noticed he got my "car gene", so grandma will help him decide what car he wants her to buy him when he graduates from law school. No pressure Sayer Ryan Gault. XOXO

    When I asked Jack if he wanted a baby girl cousin or a baby boy cousin he replied " I want a Jack". So I quess that meant he wanted a boy cousin. I asked Jack this morning what he wants to say to baby Sayer and he wanted to know "if Sayer could come to Kalahari and go swimming with him?"

    Ryan and Sunny,
    We are so happy for you both. We are glad the baby is healthy! He looks so cute on the ultrasound pictures. With all the boys in the family we almost have enough for a basketball team. Maybe next baby I will be able to buy girl's clothes. Boys are so much fun and very active. Sunny you look great!!! Can't wait to meet Sayer.
    Love,
    Aunt Christi

    I asked Jake this morning what he wanted to show or say to Baby Sayer and Jake's reply was "I want to show him how to do kartwheels when he gets bigger".
    We will see what Joey says when he gets home from school today.

    Love,

    Hey you guys! I'm so happy for the both of you. Uncle James can't wait to see him come into this world. God has truly answered your prayers. Ryan and Sunny, I know that you are going to be the best parents in the world. I love you guys and God bless all three of you.

    Love, James

    P.S. I thought we agreed that if the baby was a boy, his name would be ( James Ryan Gault )

    Thank you for sharing that moment in your life with us!!! It was so exciting to be a part of it! You look adorable pregnant! You are going to LOVE having a little boy. And don't even worry about baby proofing your house because little boys like to do things that you will never even think of. It's quite a wild ride!!

    Hi to you both! Nick and I were talking about the two of you the other day and thought about whether or not the sex of the baby was known. I logged on to your site and clicked on the big ultrasound and there it was..... a boy! We are so excited for the both of you, enjoy this wonderful blessing.
