And the Big News Is....

Glen met me at my doctors office this morning for my appointment... the much anticipated ultra sound!! We were so happy to learn that everything looked great as far as development and health concerning our baby. The Ultrasound tech was so nice and very informative about each little part. We told her that we had three boys already and it took me off guard when she said "well, it looks like it's 4 for 4." For a second I had no idea what she was referring to and then suddenly it all clicked about the time she said "those are definitely boy parts!"

So there you have it....
It's a BOY!
I have been gearing myself up for this news my entire pregnancy... not that It's hard news by any means! It just feels a little mediocre like "oh, OK another boy"... not that jumping off the walls kind of excitement that is so anticipated... I am very excited though!! Yes, I believe that every mom should have a daughter... as you know I am very close to my mom and to my sisters... girls are just that way, more than boys are! So there is a part of me that longs for that girl thing...but in the same instant that I say that I also have such a strong conviction that this fourth boy is the little person that is supposed to come to our family... a gift from heaven... and I am already head over heels in love with our baby boy!

When Evan and Eli walked in the door after school I greeted them by covering them in blue confetti as I yelled "surprise!" Eli nonchanlanlty said "I knew it was going to be a brother" and Evan threw his arms around me and said"I was hoping for a sister but another brother will be perfect!" Then they both came in chattering about how "boys rule" and chanting
"four brothers, oh, ya" four brothers oh ya" They were excited about the blue streamers and blue ballons everywhere and quickly unwrapped the blue candy canes that I set out by the little note shown above!!


Here's Gabriel enjoying the news of a baby brother....
I had the boys help me put these little bundles of blue candy canes together and then deliver them with a note sharing the news that we're getting a new baby boy!
I decided that since there are going to be so many boys around here that we better celebrate the evening by having a "man meal" I invited my parents and my brother and his family over and we all sat around cracking peanuts, drinking root beer and watching football!! For dinner we had hot dogs smothered in ketchup, mustard and relish, tater-tots, fruit, and veggies (those last two are not so manly, but necessary for a healthy diet, right?)
For dessert we had famous Aggie Ice cream... Mmmmm my favorite kind
Aggie Blue mint!!
A new little boy to cuddle and love
To spoil just a little and think the world of
A bundle from heaven to simply adore,
Having him with us- who could ask for more!!

We are so happy to annouce that the newest Huber will be a precious baby boy!!
