FOUR Rowes and a Boo

Ava is having a baby BROTHER! We are so thankful and super excited to have a little boy!

I had been counting the days until today. I remember seeing Ava at her 2nd trimester ultrasound and just falling even more in love with her then. I felt the exact same way for this little baby. At first he was curled up for a few minutes and then he decided to stretch out which made it easier for the technician to do the organ measurements.

It was so funny because the second he was on the screen Greg and I were looking for the gender. At first Greg and I thought we saw a little boy, but then we couldn’t figure out if it was the cord. The ultrasound technician could tell we were really wanted to know so she did the gender bit right away. Greg’s face LIT up when she said that the baby was a boy. He high fived me and after a few "It’s a b-o-y!” exclaims he looked at the technician and said “are you sure?” She was so sweet and got that close up pictured above just to prove to us that us that she was sure.

We feel so thankful that God has blessed us with another baby and can’t wait to meet him! (due date is Jan. 6th)

Oh, I was thinking about how this blog has come first circle in an ironic way. In our first post when we found out we were pregnant with Ava, Greg got to buy a new boat as his end of the “ baby deal." Yes, I know that sounds pretty crazy to barter a baby for a boat but I REALLY wanted to start our family and Greg really wanted a new boat so that reasoning worked for us! (And of course Greg was so in love with his baby girl the day she was born, with or without a boat) Anyways, when Greg found out we were pregnant with baby #2 he decided that it would be wise to sell the boat. Bye Bye boat and hello BABY BOY!! We wouldn’t have it any other way!!
