Our modest baby decided not to be so modest this time around. We found out on Tuesday that we are having a little boy. He is no longer breech and currently has one of his cute little feet in my rib cage. It doesn't feel so hot. It is always so cool to have an ultrasound. I just can't get over it. I think I could watch all day. He was hiccuping while we were at the doctor's appointment, which was cute. We apparently have lots of umbilical cord, which almost obscured the view, but our doctor was able to find the vital parts to determine that we are in fact having a little Shane. Now we have a picture of his little scrotum and penis to show the world. We also got to see his sweet little face and between this ultrasound and the last one, we are able to determine that he does have both eyes. He has chubby little cheeks and is just so adorably precious.

Tomorrow marks 30 weeks for us. I can't believe how fast it is going. Today I went out and got my fix, buying plenty of little boy clothes. I have been waiting all these months and now that I know, I just can't contain myself. I got him some jeans and some courdoroy pants and of course little onsies to go with them. He will have a lot of clothes and will look precious. I also found the crib. I have been looking and looking and today I found it. It's at Babies R Us, but it looks a lot like one I was drooling over in the Pottery Barn catalogue. It is blue and it is so very cute. I am confident I can make it girlie if I ever need to. It was a fun, relaxing day. It's back to work tomorrow and Saturday. Gotta be able to pay for the crib and the clothes.
