Well we just couldn't resist

After all the debate and nonsense on whether to find out or not what we are having, I finally decided, why not? I just think we need to prep the twins, get things all together and be ready when this little one decides the time is right. I asked Skyler last week if he wanted to go, since it is our last, its their last chance to experience it with a sibling and he told me he didn't want to be there when they take the baby out. I told him they wouldn't take it out, just put a little thingy on my belly and we could see the baby on the screen, so he agreed. I said, sometimes they tell you bad news at these, like if something is wrong. I also said they might tell us it is a girl and I don't want any tears. He said, "I can't promise you that mom". So Monday, Shay, Skyler, Kaely and I went to the ultrasound. As my luck would have it, I got food poisoning (mild) the night before and only got 3 hours of sleep thanks to vomiting and the other form of vomiting. So I didn't feel so great.
On the way Skyler asked Shay what he thought it was gonna be. Shay said "a girl". Skyler cheered "YAY". Shay said I don't understand I thought you wanted a brother. Skyler said "well dad I guess you don't read moms blog" Shay said "what do you mean?" Skyler said "On it mom says you are always wrong." We all laughed.
When the time came it was all the sweeter when the tech asked if anyone could tell what it was. Everyone was super quite, Especially Shay and Skyler, I said it looks like a boy to me. And she said, YEP ITS A BOY! Once again Shay is wrong and I smiled and cried one little tear of happiness, I get another boy. We are so excited. I truly feel spoiled. I feel like I have been blessed with everything my heart desires. So Hurray...its a boy!

A New Day or the First Day of School

Normally I would take a picture of the kids and walk them into their classes on the first day of school, but today they were in a crazy excited mood. I guess the summer has been bad enough that they are completely stoked for school. They woke up Xtra early running around acting like banshees. I finally asked them to feed themselves so I could sleep an extra 10 mins. I got up and asked Skyler to make sandwiches because I had already made lunches but not sandwiches, so he grabs the fork I got out and throws it behind him, "who needs forks" he said. Then he makes the sandwich only to start eating it. "MOM, I absent mindedly started eating my sandwich" and he didn't want to make another one so he has a big bite taken out of his sandwich before lunch even starts. Kaely is running around singing randomness that I tried to ignore and the twins didn't want to get in the car because they wanted to watch Hello Kitty. Then we get them to school plenty early (7:20-school starts @ 7:50) and they jump out without saying good bye the twins are devastated and cry all the way out of the parking lot. I finally apeased them by offers of Lucky Duck games and Hello Kitty. We are home, the twins are occupied and my little 2nd and 4th graders are off to another year. I think its gonna be a good one.
