It's a........

BOY! 


I guess my mother's intuition was right. Sorry I have been late on my weekly update but we have been so busy this weekend - car shopping = not fun. Plus, we were really in the clouds with finding out we are having a little boy yesterday morning! We are so excited and I think everyone else is, too. Matt hasn't stopped smiling since yesterday at 8:40 AM. For those of you who don't know, he had convinced himself it was a girl. So, it was a great reaction that had me laughing and crying at the same time. Think: "hit by a bus but really happy about it".

I'll update with photos later and a little synopsis!


By the way, we are a cantaloupe this week! And I am starting to look like it.

Baby gulps down several ounces of amniotic fluid every day, both for nutrition and to practice swallowing and digesting. And, these days, those taste buds actually work! Studies show that after birth, babies respond best to tastes they've already had via amniotic fluid. Meaning, think about what you'd like your future child to eat as you prepare your own lunch. *From The Bump.com
