It's a BOY!!

It felt like forever waiting to find out if we were going to have a boy or a girl, and i was pretty convinced it was going to be a girl. I don't know why, that is just what i thought. I wasn't the only one either. Dennis was calling my tummy Lucy the whole time. Watching the ultrasound was an incredible experience! And i was definitely wrong we were going to have a boy! We were excited for either, but as soon as we knew it was a boy we were ecstatic. And now we could stop calling my tummy it and start calling him a he.

We are having a BABY!



I know I am way behind as usual, but i want to post this any way. At thanksgiving time Brandon and I went to California to spend the holiday with our families. During that break we found out we were pregnant! I was late so Brandon decided to go to the 99 cent store to by some pregnancy tests. He bought 2 of them. We went into the bathroom at his parents house and did the tests. Both of them said positive in less than 3 seconds. We were so excited but we didn't want to make any noise because we didn't want people in the house to hear us. at the same time it almost didn't feel real because the tests were from the 99 cent store....long story short they were right!
We decided to tell our parents that week because I was staying in California to work for my dad and Brandon was going back to Idaho to finish the last 3 weeks of school. To tell them we made them think we just wanted to have a family BBQ before everyone left, then we pulled out two little gift bags for each of our parents to open. They were very confused at first, then they opened the bags and saw the diapers, bottles and pacifiers and very quickly understood what we were telling them. We were all soo happy and some of us were even crying.
