It’s a…….

BOY!!!!!!

We are so thrilled that Baby #2 is a boy. 

We went to the doctor yesterday afternoon with Sophia, my mom, and Zach’s mom.  They were just thrilled to be seeing the sonogram.  The technician checked out every little part of the baby.  Everything checked out just perfect.  His, so exciting to say, heartbeat was 158 bpm.  After all little parts were checked it was time for the big reveal…. and it was definitely obvious the baby is a boy.  We all screamed, “YAY!!! IT’S A BOY!!!”

Sophia then said, “Oh no, Mommy, I wanted a gurl!!”  She was quite close to crying, but once we told her she could dress him and play with him, she was great!   Zach even has her calling the baby “Spiderman.”  I must say we are ALL very excited… Next step is picking out his name….. and of course getting his room ready.  I am excited about decorating for a boy.

Pregnancy Highlights

Best moment this week: again talking with little miss Sophia.  This week she has named the baby, MAX, JACK, or Baby B.  Not sure where Baby B game from but it was a favorite for a couple of days.  She is also very excited about “seeing” the baby on the “computer” tomorrow.

First Day of Summer

Today was Sophia and Zach’s first day home together.  The went to the library for story time and craft time.  Came home and made lunch, took a nap, and then had a dance party.  And… we (Zach) started potty training today.  Only one peepee accident and of course a little melt down because Sophia refuses to go #2 on the potty.   Any suggestions on how to make that transition???? Overall, a very successful day.

When I got home she kept saying Yee- Haw. Such a cutie.

My First Rangers Game

So we finally made it to Sophia’s first Rangers Game last night.   She was so excited.  She was such a little trooper.  She did lots of walking and playing.  She even got a new purple Rangers hat.

The view from our seats.  I must say our seats were perfect since we bought this package for $40 for a fundraiser.  We got 4 free tickets and 6 buy one get one free tickets.  So I imagine since she was sooo good we will be going again.

mmmm yummy pretzel

loving her new purple hat… the flowers show up in the sun… sooo cute

casting her All Star votes and spraying honey with water, two of her favorite things from the game.  She also really enjoyed the dot race and singing during the 7th inning stretch.

She was such a good girl.  She was great on the way home too…. and no she didn’t sleep the whole way home, she only fell asleep about 15 minutes before we got home.  I carried in and put her in bed.  I thought I would have to read, say prayers and sing our songs, but she just rolled right over and was out all night long.  She even slept in til 8:30!!!
