Baby #5 is...

Well, our planned date night to find out what we were having went as expected. First, we had our ultrasound yesterday morning and told the tech to write down what we were having and put it in an envelope. She was so kind and enjoyed our plan. This was the first ultrasound where we didn't even have the monitor on so we didn't see much. She showed us the heartbeat on her screen and froze a few pics for us but we just talked most the time. She said the baby could turn at any time so she couldn't guarantee we wouldn't see anything if we wanted a surprise so we chose not to watch.

Our secret was safe in Daddy's wallet until last night at 6:15 when we went to Buy Buy Baby. We picked out a baby girl and boy outfit and gave them to the clerk and told her to read what was in the envelope and pick the outfit that went with the sex and then wrap it up in a unisex box and then give us the box when she was done. She did that and then we were on our way to dinner. (It's funny because you kind of wait for this day, the confirmation of what you are having and yet I wasn't anxious, nervous, or eager--maybe just too tired and pretty convinced already it was a boy!)

So we set down to dinner at Jaleo in Bethesda and had our waiter video us (trying to upload video but it's not working) as we opened our gift. Much to our "surprise", it was the boy outfit. So, now at boy #5 there was no real celebration, just a laugh and sigh at the thought of five boys! Oh me! Forgot to get a picture of the new little boy outfit! We did discuss names some. We had such a good girl's name but still trying to settle on a boy's name.

You boys wanted another boy and were happy to hear this morning that your desire was confirmed!
