The Gender Announcement: It's A......

.
Thanks to everyone who participated in my party yesterday. I thought it was a lot of fun. I've yet to see a blog Gender Reveal Party so I hope that I've started a new trend for some of you who see a baby in your future!
.
And now what you have all been waiting for!!!!
.
The Big Reveal
.

I'm having a........


HEALTHY baby!

.
Having been a Special Education teacher, I know some of the things that can be "wrong" with babies that can be picked up at an ultrasound. Spina Bifida, Cleft palate, heart defects, etc. I was paranoid with my first two babies that something might be "wrong" and relieved when I was told they were healthy!

.
So this baby I decided not to worry about those things and it was really nice to just relax. Everything physically looks great with my fetus!

.
Ok! I've teased long enough.

.
For those of you who guessed a GIRL like I did, you were...

INCORRECT!

.
I'm having a darling little baby

BOY!!!!

.

That little guy gets to look forward to siblings that LOVE to get dirty and play crazy!

.
My son and husband are so excited. Cooper keeps telling people, "I'm getting a baby brover." And of course, Cadence and I are thrilled too. I just had it in my mind that I was going to break out the bows and headbands and lace and ruffles and pink. And my husband won't let me do that now!!!!
.

So now for the winners and their "door" prizes!

  12. I won?!? I won two free crochet patterns? DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT?

    Well, I guess it does. Having a healthy baby boy growing inside of you is probably about as good as it gets. Congrats to you.

    I'm still all kinds of excited about my patterns though.

    Thanks!
