I had my ultrasound this morning and was just dying to know if we were having a boy or girl. I had all these weird dreams last night about the ultrasound, so I didn't sleep that well. One consisted of me having my ultrasound at work, and all these people kept coming in the room to bug me about doing things. In the other, BSC didn't show up but the rest of my entire family did. Needless to say, I'm tired and want to go home.
I didn't have a preference either way, but I have consistently thought through this whole process that we were having a boy. Just based on BSC's family history (no girls ever born into the family) and maternal instinct. I have always called the baby "him" or "he" when talking about it.
Well, today it was confirmed that we are in fact having a BOY!!! The little guy is very active and was constantly moving around so it took them a while to get a good view of whatever they were trying to see. Apparently some grey blob on the screen was the penis and scrotum ... could have been a hand for all I could tell. We had the entire ultrasound recorded on a video tape so all the family in Oklahoma could see it.
Anyway, I am SO excited. I have always wanted a little boy. I can't wait for pee-wee football and baseball. But if he wants to dance ballet, then that's just fine with me too.
Now the next big project is turning my ultra-girlie guest bedroom into a testosterone-appropriate nursery. It's time to return to the Home Deposit (name stolen from Nytro) for paint samples and blue tape. Once again I will post before and after pictures when we get the nursery done.
IT'S A BOY!
