***IT'S A BOY!!!*** : )

Thursday morning rolled around, at 9 am on the 11th was FINALLY the day we found out what our baby is!!!! I woke up so excited, as well as Noah too and he was feeling great to go with me to find out also! Our plan for the day was to keep our mouths shut and not tell soul until we surprised our family that night when they came to our house for us to tell everyone at once :) That was very hard I will say, but it was still exciting! : )

I went into the Dr thinking this baby was going to be an alien based on our week we had, or that the baby was not going to be positioned right to where we couldn't tell.... buuut we were wrong for sure :)

We were called back and she got me allll ready and started the sonogram. She JUST got the words out, "So you want to find out what this baby is, right?" Noah and I said YES, and it was like I had nooo time to think and BAM... you could see his butt, and yes that is right HIS butt, and his lil parts too :) Instantly she said... "IT'S A BOY!!!!" :)

At that moment I looked at Noah and smiled sooooo big, while he had tears in his eyes and was smiling back at me!!!!! It was one moment I can not put into words enough on how it felt and that I will remember forever.... absolutely amazing! ELIJAH ANDREW... our sweet baby boy we definitely can not wait for!!!! :)

I could have sat and watched Eli all day on that screen. His lil arms and legs moving, his cute lil profile and face, and then his feet.... ohhhh does he so have Noah's feet hahaha :) Loooong and skinny for sure. Noah and I instantly knew he had his feet! Seeing Eli in the sonogram was absolutely wonderful. It was so sweet to watch our baby move and to just see what we did of him... his lil heart beating, his lil tummy, brain, face, bones... everything. It was such an amazing time and alllll I could do over and over was hug Noah. WE ARE SO EXCITED EEEEEK :) Now it is time to start buying for the nursery hehe:) We are going to decorate with a theme of Sports... with the St Louis Cardinals, Pittsburgh Steelers, annnnd sorry Dad... Ohio State Basketball... not Illini :)

That evening went great telling the family!!!!! It was so hard to keep it in, but we did it!!!! We surprised the family by putting a blue "Boys Rule" shirt on Benny, our lil dog, and he ran out and circled the living room to show people what our baby is!!!! Everyone was laughing and thought it was a great idea... we then showed off our lil Eli through his sono pics.... it was a great time to let the family know all together for sure:):) Then of course... a huuuuge massive text went out to all our friends to let them all know :)
