IT"S A . . .

Yesterday was my ultrasound. It was so fun and exciting. Trent, his mom, and my mom all came. This was a total first for me since it has always just been Trent and I in Utah.
It was so exciting to see my darling baby. It's perfect spine, beautiful profile (which was also a first as both of my other babies wouldn't turn their heads and were looking head on for a scary kind of skeleton face shot), and cute little hands and feet.

He started out with his legs crossed beneath his bum, concealing everything, but with a little prodding. . . We are so excited!
As track records go and inklings, I'll tell you I always get it wrong. With Tucker I had convinced myself it was a girl. With almost all the grandkids on both sides being boys, I thought it would be great to have a special little girl to get spoiled rotten. Turns out having a boy was so perfect and wonderful and I would never change it! With Charlotte, I had thought that while having a girl would be great, what would be better than two little boys in a row. Well who would know that the only thing better would be having a big brother who adores his little sister. This time around was no different. Since this baby will be only 19 months younger than Charlotte I thought that another girl would be just perfect. But it turns out that the moment I found out it was a boy, tears came to my eyes and I knew it was just how our family should be! I can't wait to meet my handsome little guy!

Yay! I am so excited! I had a feeling, but it's a 50/50 chance, so you just never know! I can't wait to meet him either! Let me know what names you start listing out for Trent. We are looking forward to seeing him this weekend.

Yea for boys! I mean, I don't have any personal experience in that category, but I have this cousin and she has a 3-year-old boy, and he's really cute and funny. I'm sure yours will be quite similar.

YAY! I am so excited for y'all. And for the record- I am always right- with mine and everyone elses. And when you announced your pregnancy on your blog I wrote "I think it's a boy" for my comment" and then decided not to post it for fear THIS would be the time I was wrong. But I wasn't- even if it was just in my head.
Boys are awesome. Congrats!!

Well, at least all the spoiling will still go to Charlotte.

How are you 20 weeks pregnant already? Is this pregnancy going fast? Maybe your pregnancy with Charlotte went slower for me because I was pregnant too...
I'm a dork.
