B is for…

I’m a BOY!

Looking at us

Boy Feet

1st Outfit

Yesterday we had our big ultrasound appointment and are VERY HAPPY to announce that we’re having a little BOY! So if you voted for a boy (and it looks like 52% of you did), give yourself 10 gold stars:)

Our little man gave us a really good show (sorry, I won’t post that pic– I don’t want that to bite me in the butt later.)  Here’s how the first 3 seconds of the appointment went:

Tech:  Do you guys want to know the sex of the baby?
J & J:  Yes!!!
Tech:  You are having a boy!!!
J & J:  (looking at the ultrasound screen)… oh, Yes, yes, yes, that’s a BOY all right :)
J & J:  (BIG SMILES on their faces)… YAY, the nut is a little boy!!!

We couldn’t believe how fast the news came!  My biggest fear was that we were going to walk away from this appointment not knowing what we are having.  For the remaining 29 minutes of the appointment (besides not thinking about needing to pee really badly) we got to watch our little man wiggle around; we saw his heart beating, the top view of his brain, fingers, toes, knees, and tummy.  It was the best show I saw all day!  And, I was very proud of myself for being able to hold it for so long!  (Ladies, if you’ve been through this you know what I’m talking about!)

After the appointment we had to go to the mall and get our boy his very first outfit.  Check out the pic… we found a little onesie with acorns on it.  Get it?  Because we’ve been calling him our little nut.  His 1st outfit- complete with socks, a hat, and pants.  It’s sooo cute!  Next mission… we have to start working on some boy names.  And hubby is starting to plot on how soon we can enroll our son in soccer camp.

We are soooo excited to finally know what this nut is!!!
