It's a...

BOY !!!

 

I've already announced this pretty much everywhere else, but I thought I should record it here too.

Paul and I were over the moon excited that this one is a boy. I didn't have any gut feelings what the baby would be, but Paul's been so confident of a boy that he's been calling him "dragon". 

Jenna was a bit disappointed. We put blue cotton candy in a gift bag for her when she got home from school. After she opened it, the conversation went like this:

Jenna: Blue.

Me: What does that mean?

Jenna: Boy.

Me: Yay!! Are you so excited?

Jenna: Why is it a boy?

Grandma: Because that's what Heavenly Father sent us.

Jenna: But I always wanted a sister.

Me: We're getting a fun little brother, just like Liam! Hurray!

Jenna: Can I eat the cotton candy?

I think she was mostly disappointed because she was sure that the pattern should be girl, boy, girl, boy. Now that she's used to the idea, she is telling everyone and is really excited to have a new baby again!

Liam and his brother will only be 20 months apart, and hopefully the best of friends! The best part for me is that as soon as Liam grows out of his clothes, I'll just scoot them over to little brother's side of the closet :)
