Preggie Tummy!!

Baby G's Room

So we haven't done ANYTHING for G's room yet. At all. We have a crib that my friend gave us but she can't find the brackets so it's in pieces in the garage. I bought one onesie at Wal-Mart when we were visiting C's parents for Mother's Day and that's it...until today.

On Saturday C and I were at a kid's resale shop and found this:

Octopus chair!!!! We LOVED it but for some reason didn't get it. So today I was driving by and stopped to see if it was gone (I was sure it would be) But it was there! Score! So now we have SOMETHING for his room!

Yep, It's a Boy!

I found out as part of my Mother's Day present. We went to a great pregnancy spa near our house and took the boys too. I really wanted to find out as a family.

Well...the second she moved the wand under the goods I saw: TESTICLES. The tech said: 'Maybe you can get a girl dog?'

At first I was stunned. I had been so sure it was a girl. I thought. We drove to C's parents' house to celebrate Mother's Day and I sulked the whole five hours. I think most of what fueled my annoyance was the fact that C was SO HAPPY about it. I had NO IDEA that he wanted a boy. He always said he hoped it would be a girl but he was in-the-closet Team Blue the whole time.

So I think a lot of my irritation was the fact that a) I was wrong, wrong wrong (so much for my 'mother's intuition' ;) and b) I was NOT getting my way. *Sigh*

So I struggled through the weekend and then got over it. I was able to FINALLY call him by his name. Then, one day he started moving like crazy and I completely fell in love with him. Now I wake up each morning and fall asleep each evening to his happy little thumps and wiggles. I love having my boys now and I know I will love having another.

It HAS been annoying though when I tell people I'm having a third boy they always give me a pity face. I hate that! I'm fine with having another boy, it's worked out well so far. OR they say 'better luck next time.' Like a boy is such terrible luck AND as if I am doing this again--I'm NOT!
