Catching up

It has been a busy week and I have really been slacking with my blog and with catching up on other blogs. So this post will be a little random. Mostly just for memory and scrapbooking purposes so it may not be very interesting to you, sorry

As a continuation from my last post about our new little BOY on the way I wanted to give some more details. Adam went with us for the ultrasound and he was so excited. We didn't really explain anything to him before we went in. looking back we probably should have discussed and explained how it worked. He thought it was hilarious that they knew it was a boy because they found a "Nernie" this is what we call boy parts in our family...dont ask...long story! He could not stop giggling every time the tech would point out the Nernie. The tech caught that Adam kept calling it a Nernie and so she typed it on some of the ultrasound pictures. It was pretty funny. Adam has been on cloud 9 after finding out it is a boy. It is so sweet. We asked him what he was most excited about with the baby and he said "That I will have a brother for the rest of my life" It was so sweet and sincere and made me feel really guilty for depriving him of a sibling for all these years. He has literally been praying for a little brother for over 2 years now and I was just not ready and so uncertain about the decision or you could say I was being selfish , but thankfully God made the decision for us! What a blessing.

This is the ultrasound picture that reads "Hand on Nernie" Adam found this particularly funny and the tech said "Oh yeah, you know its a boy, he has his hand on it"!

We are having a hard time coming up with a name. We really thought it was going to be a girl and we were all set with the name Ella Grace, but I guess that wont work now. We are having a hard time agreeing. Right now it it leaning towards Colton Glen, but we also like the name Ethan. Glen is my grandfathers name and I really want to use it in some way. Let me know if you have any other good suggestions. :) Adam was off school today so we met my mom at the mall to eat at the food court. He got a balloon from Chick fil A and was so excited. He carried it around while we shopped for a while and it kept him entertained (actually he was punching it and trying to hit other people and I kept yelling at him). As we were going outside to leave he said "Can I let my balloon go in the sky so I can give it to Jesus for giving me a baby brother". I am serious, I promise...he really said this. It was the sweetest thing ever. Then he let it go in the air and said "Thank you Jesus for my little brother". I just love this kid! Now don't get me wrong, I do not want to paint this picture of this sweet little angel boy who only says the sweetest things and make him sound well...like a sissy. Trust me Adam is ALL BOY. I think you all remember this post that can attest to this. But that just makes it that much sweeter when he says things like this that are so sincere, and so out of character for him. A nice break from him talking about poop & farts.
