...and it's a boy!

Naturally since I was pretty sure that I wanted a girl....I thought it would be fun to have two little girls. I also figured with only 1 kid bedroom right now in our house, we could get along with out a major remodel longer with another girl, but no such luck. Oh well, it's going to be fun regardless and interesting as usual! This ultrasound wasn't nearly as much fun as Carter's. The tech was grouchy and pushed really hard with the wand so it REALLY hurt. She also wasn't very good about explaining what she was doing or trying to get pictures where we could just look at the baby. However, I got to find out what I wanted to know. It's very healthy and it's a boy. The picture below shows him with his hand in front of his face.

The doctor who came in after to let me know that everything looked fine, said he weighed about a pound right now. (Hmmm, so how come I've managed to gain 17? ...right on schedule for my 40 pounds gain by September. Sigh) Robert came in with Carter who fell asleep during the exam, so she was a very good little girl! My mom and Gramma Betty also came. Gramma Betty had never seen an ultrasound before and was very excited to come so I was sorry that the tech wasn't better for her. Robert took Carter home after the appointment while I quick ran some errands. I was almost surprised that Robert hadn't already starting cutting off the top of the house by the time I got home from the appointment to start on the remodel to add another bedroom. He's pretty sure he wants to add another story to the house for two kid bedrooms and a bathroom...I'm trying not to faint when I think of the mess! He did have a whole page of names written down already that he liked. I think he might be just a little excited. Below is a picture of Number 2's foot digging into momma--looking for a good kicking spot I'm sure.

Anyway, just wanted to get this posted. I do have the picture that proves it's a boy but I figured everyone out there reading this probably already knows what a little boy looks like and it's not terribly clear in the picture. I also have a bunch of back posts just waiting to be finished from branding, my new garden and oh yes, more damn bunnies!
