It's a Boy!!!!


Two days ago Nick and I went in to find out what our little baby is. This pregnancy has been 100% different than what i went through with Landon. I haven't been sick once, I have actually been able to RIDE in a car instead of drive it all the time, no foods have sounded awful to me and I have been sleeping as well as any pregnant woman can sleep. So naturally I was CONVINCED that we had a little girl on the way. By this point in the pregnancy I also think I had Nick convinced as well. :)
We went into the sonogram room and our tech asked us if we wanted to know and we told her we did so she immediately starting searching. The one thing about having boys is that when you see the goods on the screen-there's no mistaking it! Our tech was scanning my growing belly and all of a sudden (before she even stops the machine) I see our little boy.... I look at Nick and the look on his face also told me he had seen him too! Nick's face was absolutely priceless!
For those of you that are frequently around Landon you would agree with me in saying that he is a very "spirited" little boy. He definitely keeps us moving and on our toes. For those of you who might know Nick and his older brother Nathan (2 1/2 years older- same as our boys) I would also guess thier mother would say they were "spirited" as well!
So at this point I wish I could have jumped inside my husband's head. I'm almost sure I could see his childhood years flashing through his mind.... and I don't think they were the memories of Christmas morning, Easter egg hunts and watching movies together with a big bowl of popcorn! :)
Needless to say- we might have our hands full for the next few years, but we are definitely EXCITED! Two boys will be the best... the energy and excitement will never stop. They will keep us young at heart and laughing until we drop. I'm also very excited about how close in age they are. It will we an amazing experience to see them grow up together and (hopefully) become best friends like I see when I look at Nick and his brother Nathan. I think the bond between two siblings that close in age is something very special.
We now get to start preparing for this little guy. We have to rearrange some rooms, turn our office into a cozy little nursery and I get to look through all of Landon's baby clothes again. I'm so glad I don't have to part with them yet-I don't think I could have done it anyways. We have bought the baby one new shirt since we found out that it was going to be a He and we can't wait until he's here to wear it!
