And we are having.....

A BOY!

Sorry, I have been totally slacking lately and have been averaging about 1 post per month. This was not intended, but it's just what has happened. And sorry to say, but I don't even have pictures to post on this post. I mean I have pictures, but I only have so much time right now and it's easier just to write a quick something. We have been busy, and when we aren't busy, I'm exhausted. So I nap when Izzy naps. Sometimes, not a whole lot gets done, but I'd rather be rested than very tired and grouchy. I'm sure my husband would rather have that as well.
Bud has also been very busy as well. Not working at his job, which is a bummer (stupid economy) but he has been working day and night basically rebuilding our trailer before we leave camping for thanksgiving. So we don't get to see a lot of each other lately. Maybe once we get him back I will have some more time to sit and blog properly and post lots of pictures.

So yes, we found out we are having a boy! I'm not going to lie, at first I wasn't too excited. After having a girl, and an awesome one at that, the though of having a boy, just was not exciting at all. I knew the whole time that this baby could really go either way (a boy or another girl) but a part of me was hoping it was another girl for these reasons: one, because we have EVERYTHING and I wouldn't need to change anything, and two because I never had a sister and the thought of Izzy having a sister so close in age sounded so cute and fun!!
So, for the first day I was a little disappointed, but the next day I was over it and after talking with a few friends who had experienced the same thing, I felt better.
So now all we really need is boy clothes. Which I have been lucky to have some friends say they will give me what they have. So that is a blessing.
I also feel, so far, like this little guy is going to be smaller than what izzy was. My belly in general is bigger this time around, but it's mostly NOT baby bump belly. Which is weird because I have yet to gain an ounce in this pregnancy and I'm already half way through! But anyway, my actual baby bump is quite small compared to what it was at this point with Izzy. But we will see how it progresses in the next 20 weeks. Maybe I will get a smaller baby this time. (Don't worry people, remember Izzy was almost 10 lbs, so when I say smaller, I just mean a normal sized baby!)
So far, again, my pregnancy is the same as with Izzy. However I am more tired, but hey, I am chasing a toddler around all the time!!!
ok, I guess Izzy isn't going to nap, so now is my cue to get off the computer. Picture posts coming soon! (hopefully)
