The Most Wonderful Time of the Pregnancy

It is officially a BOY!

On December 26th I was able to go in for an ultrasound with my mother in tow. We watched the little man wiggle around for about 25 minutes while the Doctor took measurements and lots of pictures so we have great images of his little features.

Jacob did not come with me because he wanted to be surprised, so after the appointment I went out and bought a little Minnesota Vikings jersey and Vikings socks and gave them to him in a gift later that day. He was pretty excited to show off his new gift to all of his friends and family but he had to wait a little while since we had not told anyone else yet.

Since my family Christmas had not happened yet I decided to bake some cupcakes and fill them with blue frosting and see who catches on. It took a while for some people in my family to figure out what the blue meant but it was still fun.

Our next step is to start finding baby supplies for the little mans room, our plan right now is to build our own round crib - this may not happen but I have my fingers crossed! for a room theme I have chosen tools and hardware, Pinterest has been an excellent source of ideas even though some are quite unrealistic (I can dream right?)
