labor day BLUES

I hope everyone is having a very fun and relaxing Labor Day!  Sorry for those of you who had to work today (like Paul).  I guess you would have the Labor Day blues =(  And speaking of blues, I wanted to share some good news with you.  We found out a few weeks ago that we are having...

A BOY!

We are over the moon with excitement!  We actually knew that we were having a little boy at 12 weeks when I had an NT screening, but we wanted to wait and announce it when we were absolutely sure.  During my 21-week sonogram a few weeks ago, they confirmed that it was still a boy!  I'm already dreaming of nurseries (pretty evident if you are following me on Pinterest) and hopefully I can share my ideas and inspirations here in the next few weeks.  Unfortunately, we won't have a house for me to start decorating a nursery just yet (this is another topic on its own), but I can start planning ahead - well, as much as I can anyway.  I really need to start our baby registry!

As for baby and me, we are doing fabulous.  Oh, and my due date really is December 20th (read more here).  Based on my last sonogram, baby is on track as far as size, so we were right all along.  I guess he was just a little late bloomer.  I will be 25 weeks this Thursday and am getting bigger and bigger every week!  I can finally feel him kicking and it amazes me every time!  We might have a little star athlete on our hands!  Paul is excited to teach his little rookie about sports, and the fact that he will no longer be outnumbered.  Let's face it, Bailey and I run the house!

So if you have any tips on how to raise a baby boy, let me know.  I'm all ears!  I heard baby boys are very sweet to their mommies.  I can't wait for all those hugs and kisses!
