It's a....BOY!!

We had our 20 week ultrasound last Friday and low and behold, we are sticking to team blue because it's a BOY!!

First, let me back up. Mark, Trent and I arrived at the doctor's office at 12:30, per the time listed on my appointment card. We walk into the office and it is nearly empty...there are no patients waiting and only one receptionist. Finding this odd, I checked in and we were not listed in the computer. They didn't have us down as having an appointment with the ultrasound tech or with the doctor. Good thing I kept my appointment card stating the time and date because they were going to make me schedule another appointment. For a split second, I thought I was going to have to go all Carrie on their bums because there was no way that I was not going to find out the sex of the baby. Thankfully, they snuck us in with the ultrasound tech first.

As soon as the woman put the wand on my belly, she asked me what I thought I was having. I answered that I wanted a girl but figured it was a boy. She started laughing because she said that although she hadn't seen the sex yet, the baby had its hands between its legs, so she was 99% sure it was a boy. She explained that boys in utero usually are always grabbing their junk while girls mouths are usually opening and closing constantly. A few minutes later, she turned the machine toward me and it was more than obvious that there was a wank in between those little legs.

Mark was complete smiles. He couldn't stop saying how excited he was that Trent would have a buddy to wrestle around with. Although I was hoping for a girl, I am thrilled it's a boy because I love my little Trent monster.

As we were leaving the appointment, I kindly reminded Mark of "our deal." We've always said that if we had two of the same sex first, we would go for a third baby. That quickly wiped the smirk off of his face! Who knows what we'll feel like doing in a few years but I have a sneaking suspicion that my desire for a girl won't go away. After all, who am I going to get pedicures with when Mark takes his boys hunting?! Hah! I need a little girl!

So, it looks like I will be in a house full of boys but I have no doubt that I will love every minute of it!
