It's a Boy!!!
So, surprise to many of you who didn't know. We are expecting baby #3 and we found today we are having a boy. Ryan knew all along, or at least was hoping, and he was right. I've been so lucky to be free of sickness, and although we had a few scares early on, everything now is well. We are due Oct. 16th and realizing that it not only means one more body around the house, sleep deprivation, more noise, but it also means where do I put him?, we need a new car, etc. My trusty Honda Accord will need to find a new home, and we look forward to a bigger car. Caden is excited. Avery loves babies. And Ryan and I hope for the best. Caden and Avery were each on opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of everything one could imagine, so we'd be happy somewhere in between with this one. If you know any cute boy names, please pass them along. We definitely need help!
Wow, those pictures of your baby are amazing! Congratulations - you look great!. I can't believe you went to Disneyland in your condition (ha ha). I went when I was 7 months along with Kaleb & it was sad not to go on most of the rides. I'm not good with boy names, that's why it was easier to stick to one letter, so there's less to choose from (ha ha).
I'm happy for you & glad you have felt so good up to now. I still wonder where that baby is--he's not poking your belly out. Are you still wearing regular clothes?
K- so didn't know you were pregnant again! YAY! Congrats, we are so excited for you guys! How are you feeling? Hope you are doing well! Congrats again!
congrats, martha! amazing that you could keep it a secret for so long. i could barely keep quiet about this one till 11 weeks! yay for sweet little mama's boys!
Those pictures are amazing! They didn't have ultra sound pictures like that when I was having babies! I am very happy for you guys, boys are sooo easy I think! I with Becca, are you ever going to show????
I live with my husband of almost 6 years, Ryan, and our three kids - Caden, Avery and Lucas. I love going to the gym, working on my blog, secret shopping and going to the pool with the kids.
9-23-08: Caden asked me today why Tom liked the girl Jeffy (referring to the cartoon Tom & Jerry)...I told him I wasn't sure, and he asked if it was because the girl Jerry was as pretty as me. Not sure if that is good to be compared to a rat, but it was cute.
9-5-0-8: Caden has been really nervous at school, so he told us when he got off the bus "I was a little sad at school, and I didn't have a picture of you, so I said a little prayer to Heavenly Father that I could be happy at recess and I was".
6-25-08: Ryan and Caden were out playing baseball. Ryan told Caden he was getting a lot better at hitting the ball, and Caden said to Ryan, "There are dreamers and there are do-ers. I'm a do-er." I guess he learned that from Gopher on Winnie the pooh
5-14-08: I was trying to copy a picture for Caden to put in his pocket. He found one he wanted, but I explained it was too big. He said "We could just put it in the dryer and make it shrink."
4-23-08: Caden and I were out planting flowers in our pots. He wanted to know the names of the flowers and I told him they were pansies. He said, "Hey, that's what little girls wear."
4-7-08: Avery got in trouble tonight for hitting Caden on the head. Ryan asked her to come sit by him for a time out. She ran straight to Caden, squeezing his head as hard as she could, and kept yelling "I'm sorry Caden, I'm sorry Caden."
4-7-08: After telling Ryan "I don't like you" for not doing something, we took Caden to bed and asked him to say his personal prayers. He told me he didn't need to, he already did. I asked when, and he said "When I told dad I didn't like him, I felt bad, so said a prayer and asked Heavenly Father to help me feel happy."
4-4-08: When putting Caden to bed tonight, he yelled to us from his room, "In the morning, when Conference starts, if I'm not awake and you have the remote, will you pause it until I get up...or just wake me?"
2-9-08: Caden blew in my face and asked how his breath smelled. I told him clean. He asked, "Clean like a toilet?"
2-10-08: A little girl at church told Caden she didn't like his new tie. He quickly responded "Well, I don't like your dress"...maybe we should work on manners?
2-10-08: Today when saying the prayer, he said "Bless Avery that she will close her eyes RIGHT NOW!!!"
2-10-08: He also blesses that his and Avery's testimonies will grow in every prayer. Kind of sweet, that he remembers and thinks to ask for that. Oh, the faith of a child
2-14-08: Caden asked me tonight if dogs are just reindeer without their antlers
