Right!!!! Correct!!!! Right on the mark!!!!

Kaleigh, the two Michelles, and Caroline all thought boy, and we are having.....a little boy

When I heard we were having a boy, I was shocked because I had it in my head that we are having a girl ever since our doctor predicted we were having a girl based on the heartbeats per minute and symptoms (which are old wives' tales). Before the technician even said boy, my husband and I got a good view and saw his "boy parts" as well. The technician believes that she is over 90% sure that it's a boy.

I am so excited!!!! I'm having an adorable little boy....although I do wonder how I am going to raise a different gender. Let me just say this....drinking sugar before an ultrasound isn't always the best idea. I had a cup of cranberry juice before the ultrasound, and the little guy was all over the place!!!! He was moving around so much that the technician actually had a hard time getting good pictures, and so we didn't get a good look at the face or body. The wonderful news is that our little boy appears healthy......what was really cool was when he gave a good kick on the ultrasound, I actually felt it! I have been feeling "muscle" spasms" and "popping bubbles" in my belly for about a week or so, but I was never 100% sure that they were the baby kicking. But now that I saw the kick on the ultrasound and felt the same thing, I know now that those are the baby's kicks. I can't wait to show you guys the pictures, but my husband needs to find the power charger on our camera so that I could transfer the pictures onto photobucket. I'll get them up this week, and then I'll post some belly pictures of myself because my last ones were back at 9 weeks.....I can't believe that almost 3 months went by and I didn't post any pictures! Thank you for all the good vibes and well wishes you guys, it was awesome sharing this with all of you
