BABY BROTHER!!
Yes, it's official! We are having a little boy! I actually found out the Friday before Valentine's day and told Aaron the next evening. Here is how I told Aaron about his little boy!
We "officially" found out yesterday that yes, indeed it is a boy! I had my appt. with the specialist. Everything is looking good. I have been taking an aspirin daily since the beginning of my pregnancy. He helped explain the reasoning yesterday.... Hopefully the aspirin will keep my blood pressure better controlled which is probably the cause of the growth restriction I had with Emily. It is all just a wait and see game, of course but hopefully with close monitoring and aspirin, things will go a little more smoothly this time. He is going to see me again at 30 weeks (which is when I got put on bedrest with Em) to check baby's growth and go from there. So until then, we just keep praying for a healthy baby boy!! :)20 weeks down this Sunday, 20 or less to go!!
I have some ultrasound pics to share but haven't had time to scan them in yet. I will be sure to share them soon. Unfortunately, I have to work all weekend so I won't get them done in the next couple of days.
Loving the sunshine today!! Looking forward to Spring..... Class trip to New York/DC, and house projects including baby's room plus just nicer, warmer weather-going to the park, planting flowers, enjoying our backyard, grilled out hot dogs, garden strawberries, can you tell I am SOOOOOO ready for SPRING!! :)

So cute Mandy. I had a feeling it was a boy. How fun foryou guys :) Congrats. Im sure Aaron is so excited, too.
How exciting to be having a boy! I bet daddy will teach him all the sports:) I didn't know you had to be on bedrest with Emily...I hope you don't have to this time.
You told me you made him a card, but you didn't tell me how cute it is!! :) I'll have to tell Alex about it. I can't believe you are already 20 weeks! Let me know when you start on baby's room and I'll come help!
How exciting that you are adding a little boy into the mix. Emily is going to be a great big sis.
