Boy Or Girl: Finally Revealed!

Posted by: Confessions From A Work-At-Home Mom in C, pregnancy

They have been the longest two weeks of my life... the days since our ultrasound to determine if our little addition was a boy or a girl! With the secret envelop stored securely in DH's gun safe (the only place in the house to which I don't have--and don't want--access), I didn't even attempt peaking at the ultrasound results. But when yesterday rolled around--officially Christmas (well, Christmas Eve, but who needs to be picky?)--I begged DH to let me open it. I expected him to be a rock, and make us at least wait until after church... but he was as anxious as I was!

Before I reveal OUR results, here are the final results from my blog poll:

60% voted GIRL
40% voted BOY

And the baby is...

A BOY!!!

I can't tell you how THRILLED (really, beyond thrilled) DH is at the news. I really thought G was a boy when I was pregnant with her, and I set DH up for some real disappointment back then. This time--once again--I thought I was having a boy, and DH was nervous to really believe my mom's intuition. I can already see him plotting out his son's Little League and Pop Warner career.... ahhh, boys.

As for me, I am exuberant at the thought of having one of each. I'll delve into this a little bit more in a later post (one that I'm not writing in haste on Christmas morning!), but I just think it is truly God's work at hand here. Our perfect little family... sounds trite, but today, it rings so blessedly true.

I hope you're all having a wonderful holiday spent with family and friends. Merry Christmas!
