It's a. . .                

BOY!

Some of you may be thinking you missed a previous post announcing we're expecting.  No need to worry - you didn't miss anything.  I kept thinking "I'll post when I'm feeling better," which seemed to take forever this time around.  As I started my 18th week I was still feeling horrible.  I would wake up feeling fine until I ate something, anything, it didn't matter what it was, and the day went downhill from there.  I began to think I was going to be part of the 5% of women who are sick their entire pregnancy, which I was not looking forward to.  I decided to ask my OB for the same prenatal vitamins I took when I was pregnant with Beck, because I couldn't stand the smell of the new ones - and that did the trick!  The last 2 weeks have been great - just in time for the holidays!

We're excited about the new addition to our family this spring, and we're hoping to agree on a name before he gets here.  If anyone has any suggestions on boys names that end in r please send them our way - they'd be greatly appreciated!
