the big reveal

There you have it - our gaggle of ganders. The ultrasound tech caught herself typing "boys" instead of "boy" on that last shot, and spent the rest of the appointment joking about our baby having overabundant male anatomy. That was a treat. But so far as she indicated, everything looks fine. I am immensely relieved, as this baby hasn't been nearly as active as the last two.

We are in packing overload. Our apartment looks ridiculous and Mr Renn and I are both a wee bit edgy. Hopefully all of our children will live through to the other end of this process. We load the truck this weekend, and then I fly with the boys on Monday. I swore I would never ever fly by myself with two children. (Especially a large lap child on a limited lap) and yet I find myself staring it in the face. This too shall pass...... I hope.

I must admit I'm a little sad it isn't a girl this time but I am happy to see he's healthy and you will love him so much! You're moving so, so soon, I can hardly believe the time has come! You'll survive, I promise. So when you go back to take your test (it's in June, right?) will you be going by yourself?

Welcome to the "boys" club, not that you wern't already in it but I think anything after two should be dubbed so. We're excited for you guys! Good luck with the move.

Another handsome boy!!! Yeah! Congrats!

I sometimes wonder if second or third babies are just as active, but we just don't have time to notice because we are trying to tame the older ones. Congrats on the little boy, and I hope all goes well with your move!

Em I am totally embarassed. Sorry for my forgetfulness. Yes, I believe you posted this on the day after we found out Josh had to go see an oncologist, also the day I found out I was pregnant. I am so so embarrassed. Blame it on my pregnancy brain, please!!! :)
p.s. I agree with what I said, though I don't really remember typing it!!!

All the ultrasound photos look like Rorschach inkblot tests to me.
