So.... we had our ultrasound today.
And we found out what we're having!
I thought it was a girl and Ben thought it was a boy.
But of course we had to tell Lily and Skyler first (Ella was napping). Oh, and my mom was babysitting. I think her reaction is the best.
Here are their reactions:
Lily was crushed and Skyler was elated. We weren't surprised by their reactions. We're still trying to get Lily excited about getting a little brother.
But how weird is it that growing up I always wanted to have 2 boys and 2 girls and I wanted the genders alternating? I mean, what are the odds? And I shouldn't have been stupid enough to guess girl because my sister Becca (who has a 100% perfect record of guessing all the genders of all the grand kids in our family) told me that it was going to be a boy. Never doubt Becca's abilities, people!
We are excited! We are looking forward to having a completely balanced (at least gender-wise) family! Now to pray that Ben and I can choose a name without WWIII erupting. We do not agree on boy names at all. Heaven help us.

AGhhhhh!!! The movie is NOT working! I wanna see mom's face! Again I suggest the name Elijah Andrew named after his favorite auntie!
3rd times the charm. Finally got it to work :) Poor Lily. She'll love him to pieces when he arrives :)
Yay! A little boy! That is so exciting! I was looking forward to you posting about this.
I loved Lily's reaction. The dreadful crying and protest she's going to have another brother. ha! Congrats!
All of their reactions were priceless! We're super excited to have another nephew!!! :D
Your mom is so, so cute!! Congratulations on a boy! How fun. And Becca is amazing. She should be the "Baby Predicting Whisperer", :).
