January 4th we found out our baby is ANOTHER BOY. I took this news MUCH better than I did with Syler. It helped that Spencer and I talked the night before and both of us thought another boy was joining us.
Noel went with me to the ultrasound. The lady didn't even give us warning. "This is the first boy we've had all day!" (This was said before we even realized we were looking at a baby, let alone his gender.) She seemed very excited. Noel was shocked, and I was, well, lets just say not surprised. It was nice that the lady kept reinforcing the gender and how all the previous day's women were having girls. (Sarcasm intended.)
Well, I've decided I'm not in a hurry to name this baby. All our other children had their names practically before conception--except Baxter, which I won the fight over after we found out he was indeed a boy. Syler's name was chosen 7 years before birth. That's just the kinda girl I am--usually. However, I didn't exactly plan on more than 3 boys so we ran out of names.
It's actually Spencer's turn to pick, but I reserve the right to veto. So far we have a long list of -er names, but no decisions have been made. I'm tempted to wait until the birth. How unlike me!
My other boys are excited just to have a new baby in the house. Of course, Syler doesn't entirely understand. I guess he will soon enough! I've taken the opportunity to post a baby countdown on my blog so we can share the countdown with anyone reading this blog.
128 days to go!!
