It's A . . .

We had our Ultrasound on Tuesday May 25 at 8:15 a.m. The whole family came as the kids have been so excited to find out what is in mommy's tummy. They did such a great job being quiet and patient while we waited. Me at 19 weeks

Here's our pictures. Can you tell what it is?Looks like Skeletor!!
Oh . . . first feetie picture!

Hello!!
Oh look at that face!!
The perfect face of a baby BOY!!!!

When the tech told us it was a boy, Coralee and Landon got very upset!! Landon wanted three boys and three girls in our family and Coralee wanted a sister. Coralee said, "He can be wrong". The tech answered, "Yes, we can be".

But the more he looked around the more angles proved it was definitely a boy.

The only thing Steve said to me was, "I'm sorry". I had to call him afterwards and tell him he didn't have to be sorry and that I'm just happy the baby is healthy. That is really all that I want, however, I did really want another girl to dress up and put bows in her hair!!
Also, I thought for sure it was a girl because this pregnancy has been so similar to my pregnancy with Coralee and so different from the pregnancies with my boys. I guess it proves that pregnancies aren't the same.

But, I will say that as soon as we walked back into the room and I laid down on the little bed, I knew it was going to be a boy. My first thought wasn't one of disappointment, it was that we need more righteous men in our world and I am so glad that Heavenly Father has the confidence in me to raise so many fine men.

I'm not sure if I have the confidence yet, but I am working on it and am so excited for the challenge!
