It's a baby BOY!

We found out yesterday that we are having a boy! We were both pleasantly surprised. We have thought all along that we were going to have a girl first. Funny how that happens. It was so fun to see him moving around during the ultrasound. It's still weird to think that there is a little baby inside me. I'm so so so excited! It made it so much more real and so much more fun now that we know its a boy and now that I can go buy stuff. I got the cutest little outfits from my friend Whitney. It's so fun!

I finally figured out that I can feel him moving around all the time now. At first, I didn't know what I was feeling, but after talking to the cute nurse at the doctor, I realized I have been feeling him for a while. He has been moving all day and it makes me happy every time I feel him. I'm only 20 weeks and I just can't wait for our little boy to get here. It is going faster than I thought it would but it still needs to go by faster. It seems like everyone I know who is pregnant is having a boy. One of my best friends Steph and my cousin Jess are both having boy too. That makes it so fun to share stories and get some advise since they are both ahead of me. Now they both need to move closer to me!!! PLEASE GUYS!!! :)

One of my favorite parts about finding out the gender was watching Larry. I think he has been wanting a boy but just telling himself that it was a girl so he wasn't disappointed. When she said it was a boy, he was SOOOOOO happy. His face just lit up with excitement. Just pretty much yelled, "IT'S A BOY!!!" and he couldn't wait to call his parents. It made me really happy.

Once I get my pictures loaded and have a few more minutes I will post some pictures. We are so excited for our little baby boy to arrive. We are still thinking about names so any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

That's exactly our first experience when we were having Reed! We both convinced ourselves our first baby was going to be a girl so we wouldn't be disappointed if it actually was. So when they told us it was a boy, we were SO excited (because that's what we really wanted anyway). Is that bad to have a preference?
