The BIG Reveal... It's A...

So... I know you are all dying to know what the gender of our baby is... Drum roll please...


IT'S A BOY!
Profile picture... I think he looks like his daddy!

See the arrow?!  That means its a boy... although I'm still trying to figure out the angle of this shot!

We're so in love with this little guy already!  Last night we had the big gender reveal with a small group of good friends here in Boise.  And our families joined in via google+ Hangout (my new favorite thing!) and Skype.  It was really great to be able to share this moment with so many people who mean so much to us.  Our good friend Tammy Rice got the call from the doctor's office about the gender and then she baked this amazing cake for us... and when we cut into it... it was filled with blue!  I'm actually surprised I didn't start crying... it was such a lovely moment.

So everyone who picked "girl" is now out of the running for contest winner... better luck next time... the boys have it!  Thanks all for participating... it made the wait so much fun!

At almost 20+ weeks I'm being told I've "popped" again.  Suddenly I don't have to tell people I'm pregnant (rather than chubby), they know it from looking at me, which I have to say is actually a bit of a relief.  Asking people what their gender guess is has been hysterical though... I've been practically molested by a few people in an effort to make their guess.  Thank God I don't have personal space issues!

Now for the fun part... planning for the little munchkin... despite how silly it may sound, knowing the gender has made everything more real for me. There's a little guy just waiting to meet us and we can't wait to meet this little man and watch him grow.  AND now I can actually plan for his arrival accordingly... hahaha!

More soon!
