Baby….

Boy! Yep, it’s true. Last week we found out that we are having a baby boy. We are very excited! On the ultrasound we could see him kicking and punching and moving his lips like he was talking! He is quite the active little guy even at such an early age. We are bracing ourselves for a very energetic boy. His most active time is in the evenings. Last night Seth laid his head on my tummy and talked to the baby. The baby got all excited and kicked around in there for a good 10 minutes or so.  At least we know he’ll be able to kick and punch his way out of a kidnapping in Bogota!

Over the last week we have been adjusting to the thought of having a boy. Most of my baby experience has been with girls although I did speech therapy with many sweet little boys. Buying some blue clothes has helped make it all a little more real.  We were at a supper club last week and a friend informed us that there is now a product called a “pee pee tee pee”.  Needless to say the whole table went silent at dinner when she announced this. I never expected to be chatting about pee pee tee pees at a dinner party. We are buckling up for this new adventure! Seth has agreed to change all diapers and is strongly considering investing in tee pee company stocks! What a great husband!

  1. So what’s a pee pee tee pee? I suppose I’ll be looking it up.

  3. Let’s just say that the pictures I found of the pee pee teepee were pretty self-explanatory :) Looks like a good idea!

    I was helping in the church nursery Sunday and Wade (6 months) was on the floor nearby. While no one was looking, a toddler pulled on his head and made little Wade cry. The regular nursery worker felt very guilty and picked him up to comfort him. Then she decided he had a wet diaper and stripped him down to change him. But he got his revenge for the neglect. The tee pee would have been helpful….

    This is Joe. As one with considerable experience, I think pee pee tee pee is scandalous. I mean this is one of the great early adventures of a boy. Mismanagement at this stage is like warping a kid by bad potty training. I’m sure Dr. Spock would agree with me.

  11. SO excited for you guys too!! I can’t wait to hear more about the little munchkin. It is so hard to believe that you are already 24 weeks!
    So excited for Bogota as well. Not that I would know, but I think that’s a “great post” as well. Keep us updated!
