Moving around...

So I felt little Asher moving for the first time in the last couple of days. It was really subtle and small, but it was legit and really cool. What an amazing experience to feel him moving. I can't believe a small human is growing inside me. God is good.

I haven't taken any photos of my growing belly yet, but we will soon and will post them. I am really not showing very much, it's there, but not real obvious. Love to all! -Kim

IT'S A .....

Monkey!!!!!Well actually, this is a picture from our ultrasound at 12 weeks (He's 17 weeks now).
It does look like a monkey though doesn't it? Anyway, drum roll please.......

IT'S A BOY!!!!

The doctor said that he's 95% sure and we think he knows what he's talking about. Apparently that's his little wiener there by that + sign. We are so excited for our son! The Zakaryan name and a legacy of chest hair will live on!!!

His name is
Asher Stephen Zakaryan

The name Asher means happy or blessed. Over a year ago, the Lord put this name especially on our hearts and we believe that this is the destiny that He has for this child.
Stephen is my middle name (and my dad's) and it means crown.

It looks like Asher is doing great.
We saw him movin' around like crazy, all swimmin' and what not.
We saw him react when Kim was laughing. He's getting filled with the joy of the Lord already!

Here's another picture from our 12 week ultrasound. You can see him so clearly in this one.

Thank you all so much for being excited with us! What an amazing feeling it is to have you all so happy for us and eager to hear the news. We are so blessed by friends and family!!!

TOMORROW...

For most I know that tomorrow is election day. And, of course, that's true. But for the Zakaryan's it is also "BABY DAY!" Tomorrow, we find out whether our baby is a girl or a boy. And we are SOOOOO excited. I would like to know what everyone thinks so PLEASE... put in your votes now as to BOY or GIRL. You can do it in the comments section just below this post! Hope to hear from all the "Zakaryan Life" fans! We will make the announcement in the next couple of days so stay tuned... Love, Kim (and Brent) :)
