It's a boy!

Today we went for the ultrasound and the baby is going to be a boy!

Deep down inside, I kinda knew it was a boy but everyone kept saying that it was a girl. Since we had both kinda convinced ourselves (and everyone around us was convinced it was girl) we were somewhat shocked when the tech said, "boy." However, we are very excited!

After several hours of Analayne continuing to tell me she was having a sister, she suddenly started verbalizing she was going to have a brother. Right before I put her down for her nap she started up one of her sweet conversations with me. She began by saying, "Were going to be a big sister. I am going to have a brother." I said, "yes, your going to have a baby brother." She said, "just like Hadley." Then she continued on to say, Mom, what are WE going to name him, Snack?" I said, "no we can't name him snack but we will think of a new and better name for him." She looked puzzled and then said, "can we name the boat snack?" (the boat she is referring to is in our garage being worked on and just the other day Russ asked her what he should name his boat). I called Russ at work to give him a play by play of this conversation and his heart melted. He might just let her name the boat, S-N-A-C-K!

Tell me what you think?

As most young women of child bearing age know the BIG ultrasound usually occurs sometime around the 19th week of pregnancy. This ultrasound screens for all sorts of health related issues but it is also the ultrasound that can reveal your baby's sex! Guess what? my big ultrasound is quickly approaching (Oct 29th) and I will reveal my news as soon as I find out. I say lets take a poll... do you think I am having a girl or boy?
