It's A BOY!!!!

We are so excited to share our big news!

#1 I have a healthy, kicking, active baby growing!

#2 IT'S A BOY!

Denny and I were both shocked because we were expecting to hear "girl."  But we are totally thrilled and couldn't be more excited to have a little boy joining our family.  The ultrasound went great and then doctor was pleased to see a healthy heart, bladder, skull, brains, kicking feet, and two hands curled up by his face.

Here are some pictures from our ultrasound!

Thursday evening we drove to Perrysburg to have a GENDER REVEAL dinner with our families.  It was a blast!  We didn't get many pictures that night but here are a few!

I had fun making chocolate cupcakes for the big surprise.  I filled the center with BLUE frosting!  Everyone had to cut into their cupcake to find out the gender.

Yay for healthy baby boy! If you think that party was hectic, wait until you have two babies... We had a wonderful holiday with you and miss you so much already. Keep the pictures coming. xo

Mimi, you're right. I'm already telling myself, if this is tough, try three (or more)! Alas, two for now is tough enough! We can't wait to see baby Ehrmin rock the house! I'm already so curious about him....will he be the calm one or will he make Lucy look calm (like Anneliese did for us)? Will he be blue or brown eyed? Will he grow big like his Daddy's baby stats or be tiny like Lucy and Frances? There are so many differences between each child that the mystery keeps me thinking about this little guy. I can't wait to know him by name....will you be sharing? Love to you, little boy!
