It's a...

As soon as my friend Mary found out I was pregnant (or maybe before she knew I was expecting?!), she asked if she could throw me a "gender reveal party" - a fun, new party idea that has been circling the internet.    Well, 20 weeks finally came and the party was SO MUCH FUN!  Matt and I went to the ultrasound in the afternoon and immediately informed the sonographer that we needed her to tell us to look away and quietly write down the baby's gender and seal it in an envelope.  The 20 week ultrasound, which really isn't all about finding out the gender, went great and the baby is perfectly healthy and developing right on track.  Such a blessing!

Everyone cast their vote via lips/mustache, enjoyed an amazing ice cream sundae provided by Mom Haggard, and then we headed out for the BIG REVEAL!  Only Mary and her husband Mark knew what balloons would be coming out of the box...

A BOY!!!!!

Mason and a few other children promptly started crying when they realized the balloons were flying away and not coming back.  Whoops, guess we should have prepared them for that part! 

We are so happy and the boys are stoked about getting a baby brother! This addition should feel pretty natural :)  Now to find a name....
