The BIG Day!!

Well, today was supposed to be a big day on two accounts. First, Nicholas was supposed to start preschool today but he started to get sick yesterday. And then last night he woke up at 1 am throwing up. So I had to keep him home today. That led to a hiccup with the second big thing...the ultrasound. After making some last minute calls, my dad was able to drive down and stay with Nicholas while Mike and I went to my appt. That's our son for you...never sick except for the first day of school (oh well, his teacher was nice when I talked to her and said he wouldn't miss anything).

So for our next big news...we did make it to my appt and got to see our next baby for the next hour or so onscreen. While we waited to find out the sex with Nicholas, we knew we couldn't do that again so we were definitely ready for the ultrasound today. And we got lots of good views : )...it's a boy!!! YEAH!! We're so excited and deep down in our hearts (while we would've been happy either way) we really wanted a boy. A brother for Nicholas and what we can say, boys are so fun!! So we're thrilled that another sweet boy will be joining our family in January. I'm outnumbered for sure now, but I couldn't be more thrilled : ) Heavenly Father has blessed us with such sweet spirits.

PS.
I will post pics of Nicholas' "first day" next week!!
