I give in way too easily...

So, Justin and I decided to NOT find out the gender of our second baby.  I was completely content with that and really haven't even thought about it until..

Justin said, "I really wanna find out.  We're finding out because I'm a planner."

First of all this is a lie.  He is no where near a planner so, I know he just wanted to know what gender of the baby is but apparently had to justify it some way.  We argued about this and I gave in under my circumstances.

1. We have the ultra sound tech put the gender on paper and put it in an envelope and another one where she would put the u/s picture (for us incase someone wanted to play a sick joke on us).
2. We were going to Perkins restaurant and giving an envelope to a waitress and having her put either blueberry topping (boy) or strawberry topping (girl) on the pancakes, covering it up and bringing to our table. 
3. Justin's aunt Missy would be there taking pictures of us during this process.

Pretty sure he thought this idea was stupid.  I mean, he didn't have to come out and say it, but I could tell he wasn't a fan.  Go ahead...ask me if that changed my mind?  Nope.  So, he got his way and I got my way.  With that being said here is the outcome:


Yay!  Tenley is going to have a little brother and we couldn't be more thrilled for our family.  This will be the first boy on my side of the family.  I have 3 nieces and I have a daughter so, my family members are pretty excited.  However, the most important part of the entire u/s is and will always be the health of our baby.  I have not gotten any results from the dr. yet, but the tech pointed out everything and said it looks amazing.  For now I am holding onto those words as encouragment that our baby boy is growing healthy. 

Let's look at some picture from our ultrasound, shall we?



The back of his legs.  You can see where the umbilical cord is too!

Hands/arms over face :)


Beautiful profile.
The money shot.


Is it February yet?
