DRUM ROLL PLEASE..........

We are happy to announce that everything at our appointment looked great. The doctor looked and found all the vital organs, and everything was on track and healthy. Everything measured how it was supposed to as well. That was nice to hear. With Gabe we had to get another ultrasound cause they weren't sure about her heart. It was nice to hear and "see" (I can't tell what they are pointing at half the time) that everything looked good the first time. With Gabe as soon as she put the machine on my stomach, she asked if we wanted to know the sex, cause that was the first shot we were seeing was her legs spread wide eagle. With this baby she waiting until the very end to even venture down in that area. This child wasn't quite as cooperative as Gabe, but we still got our answer. Looks like we're about to venture into the world of.................


BOY!!!!


If I knew how my scanner works, I'd put the actually ultrasound pics- Oh well. I'll see if Adam knows when he gets home.

We couldn't be more excited! It looks like a lot of you were better at guessing than we were. I thought we'd have another girl. Looks like I always need to guess opposite of that motherly instinct. Ha! We took Gabe with us to the appointment and she kept us all entertained the whole time. We talked it up before we got there. We told her we were going to watch a show of the baby in mommy's tummy. She felt the need to repeat to Adam, everything that the doctor was saying with much enthusiasm. "Daddy, baby's head. Daddy baby's feetsies!, Daddy baby's heart! Cute baby. Fun! Happy!" As long as she doesn't repeat penis, and testicles when she's at church or something, it definitely was worth having her there. The doctor said, "She sounds like she is going to be a helpful big sister." I sure hope she has that excitement when the baby actually arrives. She had to check a few angles to make sure she was telling us the right sex. He kept his legs tucked in most of the time. I've heard people say when it's a boy you can tell. I found that to be true. With Gabe it was like, "see those three lines....," UM NO we didn't, but we took her word for it. With this little guy of ours, it was a lot more obvious. They gave us a cute blue bracelet that says, "It's a boy!" on it. Gabe hasn't takin it off. It's her fun souvenir from the appointment. Our world revolves so much around everything girl right now, I think it'll take some getting used to boy stuff. It's kinda like trying to figure it out all over again. What an adventure! Adam now has a reason to venture into the boy toy aisles when we're at a toy store, other than his own fascination for the swords, cars, and balls. :) BRING ON THE BLUE!!! (In celebration of the boy- I figured It'd color scheme the blog)
