It's a Boy!

It's a boy and we're so excited!  Micah is so much fun that I couldn't even imagine anything other than a boy.  I had thought it would be fun to have a girl, but two boys two years apart is going to be a blast.  Nathan and I went to lunch today before the appointment and we were talking about "what if it's aboy, what if it's a girl" and Nathan made an excellent point.  He said, "wouldn't a little boy be fun for Micah.  They'll be so close and such buddies."  I hadn't really thought of it that way.  I knew Micah would be great with little brother or sister, but I can't imagine the fun he'll have with a little brother to romp around with.  He's a pretty rough and tumble little boy.  I can't imagine what the two will get into.  I'm sure I'll never sit down once baby boy gets here!  Most importantly baby is healthy.  It has a 4 chamber heart, 3 vessel cord, 2 kidneys, and 1 little boy part (he wasn't shy). 
Micah doesn't quite get the concept of mommy having a baby, but we're getting there.  We talk about it often.  When we mention "baby" or he sees a picture of a baby he quietly says "shush" and puts one finger over his lips.  He'll grab his baby pictures and give them kisses when we talk about the baby in the picture.  I can't wait to see how much love he'll have for his new baby brother!
