I have had so much fun these last few days NOT telling the gender of my baby. Wow, people don't like not knowing that. I did it for my own amusement and was greatly pleased with all the reactions. HA!!
It was also fun surprising people with the news. I had my own reasons for not sharing it immediately and now that I'm telling (and showing) it's fun to see people's faces when they realize how far along I am.
I have felt good and happy these last couple days. The movement of the baby is such a relief. I have 16 weeks to go. I hope my emotions can make it!
Okay, do you really want to know? We are having a boy. Very exciting for me. I am happy to be having a boy since Austin was taken from me. Of course I would love whatever Heavenly Father blessed me with, but I'm glad that I'll be able to (hopefully) use all the boy things I collected for Austin. I will also go ahead with our plans for decorating the baby's room that we were going to do for Austin but never finished. Now what I need is continued faith, hope, and endurance to make it to a hopefully happy end.
