It's A Boy!


I can't believe it! I'm SOOOOO excited!
As you all know, I was FOR SURE it was a girl. I just knew it.
Obviously I am like the worst gender selector of all times as I just knew Lyric was a boy.

So we are sitting in the sonogram room and my sister, mom, Abby, Mabrie, Jon and Lyric are in there. We are all chatting and looking at him move his legs and such and then she says,
"Well, it's a boy!"
and a cheer went up!

I couldn't believe it. She said she had seen it almost immediately and then she shows us, and it was VERY obvious he was indeed a boy.

Actually, to put it nicely, he was standing at attention :)

I honestly was in shock, but soooo happy! I wanted a girl, but having a boy is amazing! I now have my 'set'!

For future babies I won't be wishing for a particular gender (yes, I'm already thinking about more babies).

I am just SO stinkin' excited!!

We've decided on the boy's first name, however Jonathan wants to think a little more about the full name, so I am going to wait to announce the name till we have his FULL NAME so I can give you the full meaning and why we picked it. (I know, I know... blame Jonathan not me)

AHHH! I just can't believe it! I can't get this smile off of my face!

We are going to decorate the entire room in original trilogy star wars paraphernalia! It's going to be awesome!! Though Jon now has to give up his office, but I think he is happy to do it.

Speaking of Jonathan, he is ridiculously excited! When I was leaving for work he told me to be very careful driving because I was carrying his boy "in there". He just knew it was a boy the entire time and always referred to the baby as a he. Even when he was praying over me and the baby this morning on the way to the doctor, he called him a he. I kept interrupting his prayer saying, "Or she", but indeed Jon was right! It's a he!!!

AHHH!

I am so not going to be able to concentrate on work today. I want to be out there shopping!

So here is my baby boy! (I can't believe I can say MY baby boy!)



And here is his "stuff"
I'm having a boy!!!!!!!
AHHH!!!!!!!!!!

I am beyond thrilled! Abby and I have been talking about it all day! Korbin and Judah will have your little guy in so much trouble all the time! Maybe we will luck out and they will all be nerds.
