It's a.....

GIANT LEFT FOOT!


and a SUPER SPINE!


and a PROFILE


and a....NOTHER PROFILE!



















and a................PENIS...


ew ew ew....















Did not think I would ever say the word penis on my blog....at least not in an appropriate way haha.

Needless to say I'm over the moon.  Dave's pretty thrilled as well.  All afternoon everyone was saying "One of each" which was actually the last thing I would have thought of considering we never planned to stop at two kids, I just think...I wonder what the next one will be?

I do have to say I was floored when the US Tech said boy.  I had a feeling the whole way through she was going to say boy but I still expected to have two little girls running around in matching outfits that I could embarrass them with in future picture slide shows.

We went out yesterday and bought the new little guy a small gift, and over the past weekend we got him 160 diapers with a good in store deal and massive coupons.  Well...because thats just how I roll.  Except I'm not cool enough to roll.  You get the picture.  Anyway those diapers will last us 16 days.  I'm technically responsible for this "child" to legally house and raise him for 6,570 days but hopefully he won't be in diapers that whole time.......

Dave is now excited and discouraged that his excuse NOT to paint the upstairs is no longer valid.  We know what we are having so the painting projects must commence.  I'm thinking a soft yellow or a blue.  I feel a bit cliche with 'blue' but I was feeling the need to paint the room blue whether we had a boy or a girl so I guess I'll just have to get over it.

I'm now going to fall asleep where I sit and not move till we have this child.  Considering how ornery it was during the ultrasound I have a feeling this ones going to give us a run for our money.  Or make me sit in a corner rocking and pulling my hair out.

My weekend...lacking in documentation.

I had a great weekend, did nothing Labor Dayish...Didn't wear white to usher out the changing of the seasons. Didn't celebrate anyone laboring.  I did see a movie which I never do.  Hung out with some friends which I never do.  Ate nachos...which I don't do as often as I say I want to...but heck lets be honest, I do a lot.

We went to Costco, to pick up supplies aka we love Costco and use it as an excuse to shop for whatever...whenever...it's lovely.  We got some Coke Zero.  The Coke Zero cans were PROMOTING THAT STUPID SCHOOL THAT DAVE AND I DISLIKE A LOT.  I wont sully this blog with it's name.  Anyway I was trying to get Dave to be 'shocked and offended' instead he couldn't stop laughing. I'd like to think I'm really funny but he tells me all the time that in fact I am not.  

The Goobs has decided my old phone cover is ACTUALLY a real cell phone and it needs to be charged.  She did this ALL weekend long. She would unplug our phones....to plug hers in. Clearly this is a good use of our electricity.  

My child...NEVER wants to be photographed.  This picture she BEGGED me to take.  Mommy picture now peas.  It's poorly lit and she's eating only white food? BUT SHES SMILING???  I didn't know this day would come.  I would imagine when #2 gets here and our child will kick in on the jealousy and I'll get tons of pictures of her while I'm trying to take pictures of a newborn.  Either way lets hope this change is for good.  I feel like I've barely documented the last few months of her life.  

I have FINALLY set up my ultrasound I'm 19 weeks right now and my appointment isn't until the 21st.  Lets not even talk about how hard its going to be for me to wait that long.  It was originally scheduled for the 13th...aka A FEW DAYS FROM NOW...and of course now I have to wait two weeks.  My life...is so hard...you have no idea.  I'm the queen of the ... today aren't I? 

In other pregnancy related news, I feel like I'm finally starting to balance out a bit.  Although every part of me hurts.  I don't remember it being like this the first time around, but my whole body aches.  Every morning I wake up and all I "want" to do is grab some Starbucks and a few Tylenol which I abstain from most of the time.  I learned from the Chicago Tribune that diet soda is the devil so I've almost completely stopped drinking Diet Coke which come on...was a good choice anyway.  I'm eating more healthy and much less healthy this time around.  There is no balance. It's awkward at best.  I do think my water consumption is pretty impressive but I'm not sure if it balances out my need for M&M's.  

I think its about time to end my rambling and let Narcoleptic Lindso take over......(this is where I make a corny "zzzzz" noise...just go with it).

goodbye.
