It's a.......

Boy!!

Well we got a good picture of the baby today at my ultrasound--and sure enough it's a boy! I can't believe it-I am going to have a son! It will be a whole new world for me and I have to admit I am a little nervous about it. I know boys are great and sweet and generally Momma's boys and I am looking forward to raising a son but I was a little disappointed as well-I hate admitting that but I guess my blog that hardly anyone reads is the place to be honest. I have a great relationship with my sisters and want Natalie to have that sisterly bond--don't get me wrong I wanted a little boy too-but I was hoping that it would be a girl and then my third to be a boy. So that is the big news and I promise I am really excited and Steven is thrilled! He is so excited and shocked-he thought the baby was a girl-it will be great for him to have someone that he can teach and coach sports to (not that he can't with Natalie either but boys are typically more involved in sports), watch UK sports with (can you tell that I am not that into sports!--I am sure I will be if my children play them) and have that father/son bond with. I look forward to watching those moments with the two of them and building memories with my family.

I understand the sisterly bond thing - but I PROMISE - boys are awesome. Just think you are going to be raising a little man that will one day be the head of a family. I am very excited for you - but I know what you mean about the sisterly bond... but they could grow to be very close themselves and have a sibling bond that cannot be broken.

Kim!!!! I can't believe you are going to have a boy :) I am sure that in due time you will be team mommy and super involved in all the sports. Tell Steven I said congrats! And... I know I don't have a sisterly bond but I am super super close with my mom!
