It's a boy, boy, boy!!!


Here HE is...no more referring to him as a girl. Despite all the girlie vibes, high, high hopes on my part and being totally convinced it was indeed a girl, it just wasn't meant to be! Eric apparently is only capable of producing Y chromosomes....errr....hehe...

There is NO mistaking this baby is a boy in case any of you are wondering. I MADE the ultrasound tech show me THREE times that it definitely was a boy. Then continued to ask, "So are you SURE I might not be surprised in the delivery room?!" Nope, there really was no denying it. So after a few seconds of shock and a teensy bit of disappointment since this really IS our last baby, we're VERY happy to be having yet another boy. But let me tell you, if and when we get a dog, it's going to be a female!!!

Cal has been only talking about a brother for the last couple weeks. So when we got home and told him he got his wish it's a brother we thought he'd be thrilled. Instead he whined, "But mommy, NOOOO, I want a sister!!" Well, you and me both, Cal, but it ain't happening. Keep on asking daddy if we can adopt a sister now maybe he'll cave :)

Getting back to baby boy #3 though. He's kicking up a storm. I swear he doesn't sleep. I guess I should have known it was a boy with all the activity. All my babes have had their own little circus act in utero! He's weighing in at a good 10 ounces and growing as he should be.

So now on to the tortuous naming process, ESPECIALLY for a boy. There just aren't that many boys names out there especially when you've already used two of them!! And NO we aren't specifically seeking out 3-letter names folks. No, we don't have a definitive name yet; no, we're not telling what we're thinking of naming him; and DEFINITELY NO, we aren't telling when we decide on a name! I'm very superstitious about this, even the OB doesn't know the baby's name in the delivery room until he's actually BORN! and I'm not even kidding. Now you know so don't even ask.

I've been thinking I better be a super cool mom forever and always so my boys LOVE me forever and want to include me in everything! I'll do my best to make them total momma's boys and milk the "come on, I don't have a daughter" for as long as they'll let me :) I'm taking all suggestions to make this happen! haha...
