On Monday I had my ultrasound to find out if the baby is a boy or girl as well as to make sure everything is developing normally. It went well; so far everything looks good. She did have trouble getting a good look at the face, so I am scheduled for another ultrasound in a month to look at that again. The baby will be a good bit bigger and so it will be hard for him to hide then! :) They want to check for cleft lip and palate, but she said she doesn't suspect anything, it's just routine to check it. Anyway, during the ultrasound the baby was moving all around and I was thinking to myself that it probably was a boy because of how active he was. But I asked the ultrasound technician to write the gender down in an envelope and put the pictures in another envelope for me to keep. I then took the envelope to Bi-Lo where I got them to make a cake with white icing and either a blue or pink inside. They don't technically do that, but when they heard what it was about, one of the ladies in the bakery said she would bring her own stuff from home to make the cake since she thought it was such a fun idea. She did a great job, and it was funny because all the ladies in the bakery were telling me to come back with pictures so they could see the reactions. They really got into it!

The next night my parents and Rich's parents and us all went out to dinner at Sesame Burgers & Beer. If you've never been, you should try it! Tuesday night is $3 burger night, so it's a great deal for a huge, really good burger. And they let you choose how you want it cooked, so it's not a well-done dried out burger. I always get sweet potato fries to go with it, and they are so good! Anyway, after eating, we cut open the cake to find out all together what this next baby will be. It was a fun and exciting way to discover it was a boy!

yea! boys are so much fun. actually, both genders are. you might be like me... i don't really care what we get now that we have "one of each", but i pray for a girl for emory's sake. if this is a boy, i think we'd definately have to go 'round one more time :)
James needs a playmate that can appreciate his way of playing....boy stuff!!!!! YEA!!!!
