Ultrasound Day!

Today was an exciting day for us, we got to take a peek at our growing baby BOY! Yup that's right, IT'S A BOY!!! We took Brinley with us to the appointment and she was so excited to see her baby on the screen,Unfortunately the little guy would not cooperate (had his legs crossed) so even though the tech thought she saw boy parts in there she didn't feel sure enough & had me come back later for another peek. Luckily he gave her a nice shot & she said she was 100% sure it was a boy! She also said that he looked very healthy which is always great news!!

So what does this news mean for us... For Shane it means his dreams of having a Basketball star are that much closer to being fulfilled, and also that the Estrogen/Testosterone ratio in our house is even again! For me it means I get to do some serious shopping(since everything we have is pink) and I get to start on my blue & brown nursery!! For Brinley it means no little sister, every time we ask her if she wants a brother or a sister she says "no bruder, I want a sister" I think she'll just be happy to have a baby in the house. but MOSTLY it means we are just thrilled and can't wait for our little boy to join our family!!
