Boy or Girl??

What a week it has been. The first of the month we went in to see our dr. and he told us to schedule our sonogram for four weeks out. He said to bring a DVD because they would be able to tell us if we were having baby Kate or baby Jackson!! Oh boy was I excited!!! I have a really hard time waiting for things (Ryan will tell you that!) it was ten times worse then waiting for Christmas morning. 

Everyone I talked to said "oh that's too early". "How will they be able to tell?" "Who is your dr?" I started to second guess this whole sono thing and was trying not to get my hopes up, but it was too late...they were through the roof!

The morning came and our appointments was at 9:30. Taking the advice of all I had a glass of orange juice with breakfast, a bottle of water and a large coke from McDonald's on our way to the office.  This baby was going to be dancing if I had anything to say about it! 




Some say it helps to have a full bladder so I thought why not?
Well I found out why not when the lady at the desk let us know they were running just a few minutes behind. She said about 25 to 30 to 45 minutes. Whatever that means. So we waited. And not very patiently either...I was dying.




Well an hour later we were called back and the sono tech asked why we were there. "it's probably too early to see the sex but I will take my best look". WHAT? I was about in tears but there was not much we could do. After only a few short minutes she had evidence! IT'S A BOY!!!




We were thrilled! Ryan even did a little dance in his chair!! A moment I hope to never forget. She has not been wrong in 15 years of work and I would say that's a pretty good track record so we will go with it!

It was party time! We had the family over and everyone had to choose team girl or team boy with a bow tie or lips. Brooke made cupcakes and while she ran to the store I filled them with blue! My mom and dad took the first big bite. It was a great way to celebrate!












Baby Jackson Ryan will join us in December!!!
