It's A Boy!!!!

Despite everyone's countless attempts in trying to guess the gender of our unborn child, today we found it, our baby is indeed a baby boy!!!

Everyone, literally, thought the baby was a girl, including Justin! For some reason I had my mind set on it being a boy for a while now.

 

Anyway, WE'RE HAVING A LITTLE BOY!!!!

 

Other then that, the ultrasound went well. Baby was a little stubborn for the tech, but all in all, everything looked, measured and came out normal with our little babe :-)

We do have a name picked out for our little man. I'm not sure why, but we have been having the HARDEST time agreeing on a boy name, up until today actually! His name will be Isaac Christopher Reid. Isaac, after a famous musician and Christopher, after my father.

So we are very, very excited and happy for our little guy who's on his way :) only about 22 more weeks and we'll get to meet him!

I also started my registries today which has been fun! Since we knew we were going to find out the sex today, Katie and I decided that she'd help me start registering for baby stuff. And funny enough, again, before knowing he was a boy, I could not find a nursery bedding set that I even liked to save my life for a boy! Yet, today, I found the perfect one! It is a chocolate and green stripped set that Justin and I both love. So I will be registering for that soon.

Just ironic I 'spose. Couldn't find anything boy-related I liked before, couldn't agree on a name... then all of a sudden, BAM... everything fell into place. :)

 

WE'RE HAVING A SON!!!!

Well they told my daughter ti was a girl..... well he is 8. they wouldn't put him back and get the girl out... Glad your having a boy though
Heather Reid Dec 22, 2011, 7:59pm UTC
haha that's funny! Yes, we're excited it's a boy :) but we would've been happy either way

everyone got her girl things because they said it was going to be a girl. Then everyone had to take things back to get boy things.

That's so exciting that you were able to find out.
Heather Reid Dec 22, 2011, 10:46pm UTC
We almost were not able to, but then the tech had me go to the bathroom and Justin's mom told me to jump up and down a little to see if we could get him to uncross him little legs, which worked! lol
