A boy!





We had the ultrasound on February 3rd and found out we're having a boy (let the record show that I knew it all along!). Mom and Dad drove up to be there with us, and Debbie came too. Chris and I went in first alone, and it took over 20 minutes before the ultrasound tech could see enough to tell us the gender. He had his legs crossed most of the time. Big surprise that our child would be difficult!

Then we brought in our moms and made them wait to see evidence before we told them the big news. Again, he had his hands between his legs, so we couldn't see anything again for quite a while. Hmmm...wonder where he inherited that trait? Finally, he cooperated, and they saw their grandson for the first time.

Mom had been hoping for a boy to help even out the numbers in her grandkids, and she brought in three giant bags of clothes and all kinds of gifts for our little guy. Debbie brought over all the blankets she had crocheted for Chris as well as the one she brought him home from the hospital in and the one Mamaw Baker made for him when he was born. This is going to be one warm baby!
