BOY! Woohoo! The little squirmer in my belly is a mini-Mark!
We actually found out the day I turned 16 weeks, almost 2 weeks ago. It was the weekend of our 1 year wedding anniversary, and I wanted to surprise Mark. We weren't sure due to his work schedule if he would be able to come to the 20 week ultrasound, so we had talked about doing an elective US early to find out. I called a few days before and found a "pregnancy spa" with an opening. On Saturday I fibbed and told Mark we had lunch plans with some friends, but really drove to the US place! He was pretty shocked but excited! We got a good look at our little guy, and I saw pretty early on before the tech announced it that we would be having a little dude :)
We were both so excited, although I'll admit it took about an hour for it to sink in with me. All I've known is little girls since I have two nieces, and my brother is 5 years older and wasn't a "typical boy" (he was always super nice growing up and pretty quiet). We called our parents that day and told them the good news, everyone seemed to guess boy to begin with :) After church the next day we went to babies r'us and bought a couple of boy outfits and the same weekend we ordered the crib (which arrived today)!
Little man already has a name, I'll do a separate post on that, but below enjoy some pics and our "gender reveal photo"!
