As of yesterday, I only have one more month to go before Joshua is due. Hopefully, he will come a little before his due date of October 29th, because I am getting really uncomfortable these days.
Most of you might have noticed Joshua's title to his blog. Yes, it is currently Joshua "Fenway" Park. For those of you who don't know...Fenway Park is the name of the Boston Red Sox's baseball stadium. Song wanted to have Joshua's middle name be Fenway, but of course, I had to veto that. Joshua's middle name is going to be his Korean name, just like how Emma's middle name is her Korean name. We have yet to finalize that; therefore, to make Song happy until we decide the Korean name...I have temporarily used "Fenway" in the title of his blog.
I can't wait to post the weekly updates of our son when he arrives. Hopefully, I will have time to. It was much easier with Emma since she was the only child, but I will do my best to take lots of pictures of Joshua to be fair.

It's a BOY!!!
On June 18th, we went to have our 20 week sonogram. This was the first time we were going to be able to see Baby Park #2. We didn't see Emma until her 20 week sonogram either. We were all very anxious to see the baby.
When we were trying to conceive our 2nd child, I wanted to try for a boy since we already had a little girl. My girlfriend, Vivi, told me the methods of how to have a girl and how to have a boy. I guess we were lucky with both babies since we got our wish both times...well, I got my wish. Song wanted the 2nd baby to be another girl. He's worried about..."what goes around, comes around." I think he's also worried that I'm going to ask him for baby #3, since I always wanted Emma to have a little sister. At any rate, we were all pleased to find out that the baby is healthy. That is the most important thing.
I sort of had a feeling that this baby was going to be a boy. The pregnancy so far has been different than when I was pregnant with Emma. Emma didn't give me any trouble, even the birth. Baby Boy Park, however, has given me some trouble already. I have experienced morning sickness (not severe like some women), heartburn and indigestion. I haven't gained too much weight though. Some people can't tell that I'm 21 weeks pregnant. Baby Boy Park was also very stubborn when we went for the sonogram because he didn't want to show his side profile, so I had to go back a 2nd time. I guess he just wanted me to see him again. Don't worry...he's not going to be a Mama's Boy. No way! haha.
Anyway, we can't wait to see him. His due date is Oct. 29th. He will make our family 100%. There is a saying in Korea...they say that if you have a girl and then a boy, you have a 100% family; however, if you have a boy and then a girl, you have a 90% family. It's funny because Korean people used to only want boys. Anyway, the Park family can't wait to have a "boys vs. girls" golf outting.
"Hi Everyone! I'm Baby Boy Park. I've heard that my American name is going to be Joshua. My Grandma Park picked that name. I'm still waiting to hear what my Korean name is going to be. I can't wait to meet everyone especially my big sister, Emma."
"I wonder if my profile is going to look the same. Mommy and Daddy say that Emma nuna's side profile looks the same as her sonogram picture. I guess we'll have to wait and see."
"Here is my arm and hand."
"Daddy can never tell what he is looking at in the sonograms. He didn't believe the technician when she said that I was a boy. Mommy knew that I was a boy before the technician even told them. I guess I have to remember that for the future...Mommy is always right. But as you can see, I'm a boy. The technician and doctor said...100% BOY."

"Can you see the side of my face? Yeah, it's pretty cramp in here."
