Peepee or No Peepee...that was the question....

PEEPEE!!!!! It's a BOY (for those of you who don't know yet)!!!! And his name is Liam James Stanley :)

We are very excited. I know girls are more fun to shop for, but little boys are really funny. I think that Zac is especially excited about having a boy. He was smiling from ear to ear when the Ultrasound Tech told us the good news :)

Not only are we having a boy...but we're having a LARGE boy! You could have told that just from looking at me! haha. I often get asked if I'm having twins or if I'm due soon.....ha!!!! What is wrong with people?! You always ask OPEN ENDED questions!!! haha.

Anyways, he is in the 97th percentile for size....bigggg boy.....and he has very long legs....I don't know where the hell he got those from because they didn't come from me! He was measuring so large that they are going to have me do the glucose test next time I go in to make sure that I don't have gestational diabetes. For those of you who don't know, gestational diabetes can be dangerous for baby and mom. In a nutshell-it's diabetes that occurs during pregnancy and often is indicated by large babies. Mom and baby both have it, so it can be dangerous especially for baby after birth. But I'm pretty sure I don't have it. My blood sugar is often low-so we'll see :)

Also-my Nurse Practitioner alerted me that I have already hit my pregnancy weight gain goal of 25 pounds! haha! oh nooooo. BUT-I gained a lot in my first trimester and the beginning of my second trimester and have been slowly gaining/maintaining since. I think it's because the baby is pushing up on my stomach and making it smaller-so I eat less...and more often which is better.

Also-I don't know if people are lying to me but they say I'm all belly. I'm ok with the lying for now :) It's ok to be delusional during pregnancy! haha.

Zac and the puppies are doing really well. As always, Zac has been busy with work (as have I, which is getting really difficult because the weather is in the 80s now and I want to go to the beach!!!). And the girls are as sweet and cute as ever :) So spoiled...and excited for a little brother to lick :) And we are all excited to be going to Ohio this weekend to see everyone!!! Hope all is well with all of you :)

Lots of Love!

Until next time-
Beth, Zac, the Girls and Baby Liam/Fetus :)
