It's a Boy!

So, we're having a boy! I'm just shy of 20 weeks pregnant and on Tuesday we had the ultrasound when we found out, among other things, it's a boy!

When I got home from the appointment I told Nora I had been at the "little baby doctor" and they had told me that the little baby was a boy.

Her response? "Um, I want a sister."

I told her I understand, but that it wasn't up to us and she was going to have a brother.

Her response? "Um, take off your sweater."

"Nora," I said, "You can't see the baby, only the doctors can see the baby."

Her response? "Take off your sweater."

Oh, the places her mind goes!

Another recent gem: Upon seeing Sam's grandmother in a photo album she said, "Savta's not dead, she's right here." Sam explained that she was in fact dead and that that was a picture from when she was alive. "No," Nora responded, "you're wrong. She's right here."

In other news, I feel really, really pregnant and cannot believe how much bigger I'm going to get. Just this week my belly has begun to itch and stretch and instead of just feeling the baby on inside, I was actually able to feel the baby from the outside (conveniently during a meeting last night!).

Exciting and busy times over here!
