Soooo...I'm going to have a son!!! Yesterday morning I was soo nervous for my ultrasound yet so excited at the same time! My appointment was at 11:30 and my mother and I were there just in time! The lady called my name and I went into the dark room, laid on the bed, and exposed my daily growing belly! The cold jelly goes on, and POP..there my little baby was on the screen! So much bigger than the last time! My last ultrasound was at 11 weeks, and this one I was 21 weeks, so a 10 whole week difference! The whole reason I was getting an ultrasound was to check the baby for birth defects..and just make sure everything was normal. The lady was scanning over my belly for about a half an hour! She looked at every organ possible in every viewing position possible as well as checking measurements of all the different parts of the brain and such! She asked if I wanted to know the gender and I said...Yes...but I want you to write it on this card. We are going to put it in the envelope and open it up tonight with the whole family around. So she wrote it down. Then she said that she just needed one more view of the baby's face to make sure he didn't have a cleft pallet. She could not get a good picture because baby was laying face down! She had me empty my bladder, move around from side to side and it just wasn't doing any good! She then goes...oh well it looks like we did some good, look he's rubbing his eyes! <----SPILLED THE BEANS!!! I totally caught it, and so did my mom. I knew my sister was going to be sad...but it was not my fault!! So when we left, I called her right away and told her that the nurse lady spilled the beans. I wanted to double check to make sure she wasn't pullin our chain so we opened the envelope and sure enough it said boy. So I'm going to have a little baby boy!!! Now I don't have to wonder if I'm going to have a son or daughter in a couple months, I can just know that I'll have a son! I can't wait to meet him, kiss him, and show him how much I love him! I hope he looks like me, that would make things that much more special :) The ultrasound lady had to write a full report on the ultrasound and give it to the doctor for my monthly appointment this morning. I got there and he said, your baby is beautiful! Everything was normal! Which makes me very very happy! I have some pictures I want to show, but I can't figure out how to make it so when I add a picture (if I was to add one right now) how to make it so it doesn't automatically just go to the top?

I am so happy for you my Boppergirl.
I really want to have a chance to hold that little guy as much as possible!
Congratulations!
Oh, and click and drag the pic to the bottom.
Congratulations again, Caitlin!
Lots of people say that Shirley looks like me, but I can't see it. One of the funnest parts of having a baby is guessing what s/he will look like!
