In case you haven't heard...

In case you didn't already hear via phone call or text or facebook or through the grapevine....

It's a 
B-O-Y!!!

That was both Jason's and my guess. And even though I would have actually been shocked to hear otherwise, I now am kind of shocked that we a little boy coming! I'm so used to a girl now (not to mention I've only ever had sisters), that I don't even know what I'm going to do with a little boy.  But we are really excited to have one of each! Jason of course is excited to have a little boy - and is especially excited to get all our nephews hand-me-downs.  No names yet. I'm sure we'll tell the world once we decide on one. Maybe :-)

Here are some ultrasound pics! Not quite as good as the ones we had with Adelaide. Little guy had his arms up over his head so it made it hard to see his face. The important thing was that he was not hiding what we needed to see to know that he was a boy :-)

And what does Adelaide think of a little brother??

What?! a BOY?!?

 YAYYYY!!!!

 

 

So exciting!!!

Ummm.... turn that camera around so i can see myself.

19.5 weeks

Okay so for those who feel they can make a more "educated" guess based on a picture, I now present to you "A Portrait of 19.5 Weeks" (well, 2 portraits, actually).

 

And, just as a basis of comparison, here I am at 20 weeks with Adelaide.

Also, while I'm here, a few thoughts:

- Has anyone else felt like with #2 (and I'm sure with subsequent babes), you kind of forget you're pregnant? I mean, besides all the puking, which I am still lucky enough to have around of course... I just am not always thinking about nursery decorating and registries and names and everything. We don't even know where this kid is going to sleep yet. Maybe that will come more after we know what we're having and can plan more?

- That reminds me... To share a room or not to share a room?? That is the question. Any thoughts? We have heard from people who had problems with the kids waking each other up, but on the other hand, I feel like people have to do it all the time, right?  We do have an extra room, but I am just hesitant to give up a guest room. Really what would be ideal is if Schub didn't have to work at home and we could just use his office :-) (just kidding, schuby. i love that you work at home). Thoughts?

- It is way better to be at home as opposed to working while pregnant.  1.) I can puke without strangers in the bathroom hearing me. 2.) I can nap. which I do.

- I feel like I had more to say, but now all I can think about is American Idol and kicking a soccer ball on Bowman field because it's so nice outside (Oh Clemson, how I miss thee) and how funny I think my girlfriends from college are.

Guesses anyone??

Alright people. Please forgive me for being rather absent lately. Just believe me - we have been doing lots of fun things, Adelaide is as cute (and difficult?) as ever, and my belly is most definitely growing. I just have no pictures to prove it. Sorry.

On that note, Friday is our big ultrasound!  Jason and I have never been good at keeping surprises - not to be confused with keeping secrets.  If you tell us a secret, we can keep it. We just aren't good at keeping surprises.  We usually end up giving each other our Christmas presents a week early.  So anyway, assuming this baby cooperates, we will definitely find out what we are having, and we will definitely announce it to the world.

SO - we are asking everyone to leave a comment a tell us what YOU think we are having!  Jason and I both our guesses (they are the same guess, by the way), but we thought it'd be fun to hear what everyone else thinks!
