It's a boy!!!

So I gave in and we decided to find out what the sex of the baby is....... BUT if/when we have any more kids we are definitely NOT finding out. I figured since now I will have everything needed for either a girl or a boy, then there will be no need to find out! Anyway..... I was 99% sure it was a boy before the ultrasound. This pregnancy has been soooooo different from my first one. A few of the differences are:

• I'm craving beef and sugar- not enough bacon cheeseburgers or chocolate sundaes in the world to satisfy these cravings!
  
• My belly is much more pointy and lower this time than I was with Madison.
• Ridiculous lower back pain (I don't remember having any with Madison)
• I was only sick the first 8 weeks, where I was sick 12 with Madison
• My "stretching ligament pains" as the doctor calls them, are sharp stabbing pains, where with Madison it was more of a cramping feeling.

So...... I was pretty sure this baby was going to have penis and not a vagina! I'm happy to say I was right (never doubt a Mommy). Here are the ultrasound pictures :)

Little dude is sucking his thumb already!












There's a wiener!!! So this view is looking up at his crotch with his legs spread and his wee-wee sticking out. No modesty yet... Funny thing is I have the same angle of Madison when she was in my tummy! My kids definitely wanted us to know what they were!

Daddy's Little Helper

How freakin' cute is this!? I thought I would have to wait until we had a son to see him helping Daddy mow the lawn, but nope! Madison is such a Daddy's girl that she would do anything as long as it means spending valuable time with Daddy! So sweet <3








This is her "cheese" smile. Any time she sees a camera she stops whatever she's doing to say cheese. It's very funny, but kinda ruins the moment when you want to catch an action shot! Madison is definitely not camera shy though. She loves to have her picture taken and then run over and look at it right away. The cutest part of the "cheese" smile is that she stands on her tippy toes while she is doing it. I still haven't figured out why, but she has to be on her toes to say cheese!
