20 Weeks

Wednesday was a good day. I got a free blender, three boxes of Special K on sale (YES!!!), and we found out that this little baby is.....

Another BOY!!!

I'm not gonna lie though, I was kinda hoping for a girl. But for some reason (probably just because we already have two), I thought it was a boy and it turns out I was right! Even though we were expecting a boy, I'm still feeling a little intimidated at the thought of our home being overrun by little boys! Yikes! We are very excited though. I love being the mom of two crazy boys already, and thankful that I get to do it again :-) What an exciting, fun and chaotic few years we have ahead of us!

Besides finding out that it's a boy, the doctor also told us that everything looks great, the baby is healthy and growing right on track. He is measuring in at exactly 20 weeks and was moving around a lot during the ultrasound. We actually didn't get any good pictures because he of his position and all the wiggling around.

I am still feeling great, no complaints here! I expect the last couple months to be a little hard, mainly because my last trimester will take place in the extreme heat/humidity that I have previously expressed my hatred for each and every summer, but until then I am hopeful that this will continue to be a super easy pregnancy. I've gained 12 pounds so far and I started feeling the little guy moving about three weeks ago. I forgot how fun/weird that feeling is!

Jackson and Cullen seem excited to have another brother joining them soon too. Although, Cullen's initial reaction when he heard it was a boy was to frown and protest "But I wanted a baby sister!" He got over his disappointment quickly though, with the help of an ice cream sundae from McDonald's, and has been excitedly telling people that he's going to have a baby brother ever since. Jack likes to come up and snuggle against my belly, rub it, kiss it, etc. He says he loves the baby and can't wait to hold him. I am so excited to see them as big brothers!

Alright, now I'm off to enjoy a bowl (or two... or three) of Special K.
