I have to apoligize. I still haven't figured out how to scan onto my laptop and I haven't uploaded any new pics in a very long time.
My house is full of boys, all boy, boys. I have had several headaches lately so I, as much as I hate it, turn on the TV in the morning, lay on the couch and let the boys do their thing. Well, last week or so I heard them break the child knob off the pantry door and by the time I sat up and looked to see what they had, they were throwing finger paints on my carpet. It looks like very colorful puke in about a 5x4 foot area in my living room. When I screamed for them not to move, Ben took off running through the living, leaving purple foot prints as he went. Oh my! I wanted hardwood floors, but not for 5 or so more years. Rian was of course out of town so I called him and the first thing I said was "Please don't be mad" he laughed! When he came home, he told me to let them paint the whole room and just pretend it was supposed to be like that. I don't think I could handle that, but it's really not in our budget to redo the floors right now.
I have to admit, that, was just fluff. I am so excited about my doctors appointment today, I had to talk about the twins first. And they are ALL BOY! Anyway, I took the boys to the doctor with me today so they could see the baby. They know Mama has a baby in her belly, and understand as much as a 2 year old can, so I thought this might help something click. Rian was coming from work to meet us there and of course there was an accident on 69 and he was late. Fortunately, the doctor is always late as well. We went into the ultrasound room and I put the boys in the chair and told them to watch the TV and they were going to show a movie of the baby. I told the tech we want to know the gender but we wanted to guess first. When I was pregnant with the twins the tech was still spreading the gel around my belly and ask us. We said yes and she said boys! That was all, no showing us, just very direct. So we didn't want that to happen again. We saw the head and the brain, which I think is so cool! Rian got there when we moved to the belly. Heart looks good, belly looks good. Everything is wonderful. Then, oh boy, there it is! It's a boy! Apparently, I am not meant to have girls. I thought I wanted a girl, but I am so happy to know that it's a boy. Maybe just because I don't have to say "it" again. I can say HE! We have a few names in thought, but that will be a surprise in about 4 1/2 months.
Now that we know I get to start painting and planning. I am stupidly enthusiastic about buying cloth diapers. I cloth diapered the twins from about 2 months at home only and love my Bum Genius 3.0s. But I want this one in cloth all the time. I have done more research and found Nubunz, an American Made, cloth diaper small company. They are clearancing the old stash in order to envail the new stash. But the clearance is $4.75 per diaper which includes 2 inserts. Like I said, I am stupidly enthusiastic about the subject and have a feeling I am going to end up with 15 different kinds of diapers this time. If anyone is interested I will be doing reviews of any and all diapers that I try. Just for fun.
