A Sweet Bonus

We are thrilled that baby is doing so well, and that the ultrasounds have shown a healthy baby so far!

That being said, we found out a sweet little bonus the other day....





That's right!!!  It's a boy!!!  What a pleasant surprise!
 
I have to back up a little bit and explain why we had a gender ultrasound at 14/15 weeks...a little early for that.  Nana Sue and Mimi have said all along that we were having a boy.  I didn't think so because I really haven't felt very different from my pregnancies with the girls. 
 
At our 12 week ultrasound, the tech guessed boy, but she said that both boys and girls look very similar at that point.  Well, Mimi started calling him a boy.  Matt and I did not, and she got tired of our "unbelief" and calling him an "it." So funny!  So, she drove me to baby impressions a couple of days ago, and sure enough, there it was!!
 
It just goes to show that sometimes you have to trust Nana Sue and Mimi's gut feelings. 
Thanks, Mimi, for a fun outing.  The girls and I loved getting to see HIM on the big screen!

That is so fun! Boys are so different from girls and it is fun to have both experiences. Plus boys really love their mamas! :) By the way, when I first read the title of the post I thought you were going to say you were having twins!! :)

Hooray! Why am I not surprised that the first outfit you bought for him is smocked?! Enjoy it while you can, before he doesn't want anymore of those sissy clothes :) One day he will dig up a worm and bring it to you and it will be better than any bouquet of flowers.
