The Results Are In...

It's a boy!!! Our little guy was quite the wiggle worm during the ultrasound, making it very easy to determine the gender. As you can see from the spread eagle shot, there's no denying it. Those who have asked me know that I was hoping for another girl, but I'm not disappointed that a baby boy is coming. I think having a boy is scarier for me since I've already done the whole girl thing and had such a great experience with Macie from the very beginning. Different will be good. I won't lie, I'm a little nervous about going from one to two regardless of the gender. However, motherhood has proved to be the most rewarding thing I've ever done. I wouldn't trade a second of it for anything else, tantrums and all. There can't be anything sweeter in life than having your little one tell you that they love you and give you kisses. I feel lucky that I was able to spend all of my time over the last 2 years day-to-day with a child.

I have no doubt that my Macie will be a great big sister. She's already saying: "I'm gonna have baby brother." It's still a long wait for her, but hopefully helping with the preparations will keep her excited about it.

I have to share this last thing the nurse said while Macie and I were at the doctor's office:

Nurse: "So, your daughter looks like her Dad."
Me: "Why do you say that? Doesn't she look like me?"
Nurse: "Not really."
Me: "Oh."

Hmmm, I thought as Macie has gotten older she's started to look a little different. As in, not as much like her Daddy. Not that that's a bad thing, I just want her to look like my child too! However, my mom said she found a family picture when I was a two-year-old and I looked a lot like Macie. Take that! I'll have to scan it when we go visit my parents in a couple weeks. In the meantime, I'll leave you with a picture of Baby Boy Waldron's face. A little scary looking huh?
