What we've all been waiting for

Well, today was the big sonogram. And I have to say, it was pretty great. The baby looks perfect, big and healthy, everything growing as it should. We even got some of the sonogram done in 3D, and that was super cool. We could see baby's facial features very clearly, and even watch the little hands and arms move. I'll try to post some of the pictures in the next day or so.

And oh yeah, it's a boy! I know, Mike and I were kind of shocked too. We had a feeling this was a girl, everyone had guessed girl, every chart and old wives tale and Draino test said girl, and everyone was wrong (except cousin Linda). I will admit to being a little disappointed, as I've always wanted a daughter and this is going to be our last child. But I'm excited too--it will be great for Ev to have a little brother, and fun to have another little guy around the house. So we definitely feel blessed to be having a little boy, but it might be a few days before we get used to the idea! I'm just so relieved that he looks healthy and everything is growing as it should.

So that's the big news of the day. I'm exhausted after all the excitement, so I'm going to have a snack and head to bed. We're going to have two sons! Amazing. I just hope this doesn't mean the Steelers aren't going to win the Super Bowl.
