Blue or Pink: What do you think?

So I revealed on my Bump Watch: Week 17 post that Baby B is a BOY but let's back up a little bit..

A little over a month ago I scheduled an elective ultrasound for July 17 to determine the gender of Baby B. My mom offered to host a cookout that evening to reveal to the family. As the 17 drew closer, I got more and more nervous that the baby would not cooperate and we would have all our family together with nothing to tell them. I was so worried that I ended up changing our appointment to July 11 which meant I had to keep it a secret for 5 days!

Turns out my worrying was warranted because baby boy was all curled up and wouldn't show us anything! He must have been worn out from a crazy day at the office. The girls at Peek at Me 4D were amazing and did everything they could to get him to move (drank cold water, changed positions, etc). We ended up with a couple shots of the "parts" but we had to come back on Saturday to get some better pictures of his face.

Big stretch and a sweet smile! 

Still all bones and tiny but still cute. 


Wednesday night was finally here and I couldn't wait to share our news (it was a long five days!).




  


It's a BOY!! 





We had a great evening with family (and a few friends). I am so glad they were there to share this exciting time with us. Baby boy is loved by many already. :)

May in Photos

HI All! May was packed full with graduation parties, baby showers, and more! 

Suzy graduated with her Masters and Meghan threw her an adorable party complete with a surprise visit from her parents. Unfortunately, this is the only picture I got from the night! 


My Aunts invited Suzy and I out to the Canvas and Cocktails at the Springfield Art Association. I am not artist but we had a blast! 


We had a backyard Baby-Q for Baby Waylon. What a spoiled and loved baby already! I can't wait to meet him in August. 






And my baby brother graduated from High School! I still can't believe it. 
So proud of you, Bubba!




And adding this one just because I think she is so cute..
