It's a..

..BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had another ultrasound and got the same tech and I was ready and waiting for her to further confirm that we were indeed having a girl.

But she said we are having a boy and that apparently he wasn't as excited at the last appointment! LOL! He was on his head for most of the session and at one point, his knees were on his forehead!

I will post pics soon. We are having another one in a week and a half (need some more measurements that we could not get) and hoping those pics come out better.

We are so happy! Mark is the only son and one of the few men in the C family who got married. This child will carry on his name.

I have been feeling what I think is movement. I am a woman of excess gas anyway (sorry for the TMI) so sometimes I figure that a flutter was a gas bubble. I am pretty sure it is him though. I ate a cupcake the other day and totally felt multiple fluttering soon after I inhaled it. I guess my little man loves his sugar!
Now...for names. We haven't a clue! We had the girl name all ready.

Mark does not want a junior. So now we must think of some names. So far we have thought of Quinn, Jake, Aidan and Jeremy. I like Max, but Mark does not. :(
Aidan and Jake are extremely popular names and I can bet that if we would name him one of those, he would be one of so many.

Lots to think about and time to do so. But knowing me--we will bring him home and change it.

My poor pup was Allegra for a week or two before I changed it to Lucy!! I had always loved that name. It is Italian for happy. Well, I seemed to have forgotten that it is something else to most people. Friends and family were asking, "Why did you name your dog after an allergy pill??"

I am a Gemini so anything is possible...


My dear friend, Kate, had her beautiful son, Gideon this week. Sooo cute!! Congratulations honey!!
