it's a boy!



this little face and cute little crossed feet belong to our third boy.  three boys.  three and under.  after that initial shock wore off (and the tears stopped quickly), we saw image after image of a pretty perfect babe.  measuring exactly where he should, wiggling all around (maybe due to the peppermint hot chocolate i'd drunk earlier), and showing us that there wasn't any question that he was a boy.  i had told bryan before the ultrasound that if it was a boy, it'd be a lot easier naming him because our list for boys was 1, maybe 2 long.  our girl list, on the other hand, seemed to only be growing.  so now we'll (most likely) wait until he's born to name him and have a couple to choose from.  to me, certain names go with certain personalities, and that's definitely been the case with liam and finn.  in a way that i can't really explain.  so we'll probably wait to see what he looks like.  i say probably because it's hard for me not to call him something now that we know he's a boy.  we'll see.  this pregnancy has thrown me for a few loops, so i'm not setting anything in stone.
