Audrey and Naomi will be having a little brother!
I may or may not have purposely wore a blue shirt, thinking that it would in fact, be a boy.
We also got word that the baby is looking very healthy and his heart is working great. It was so fun to get a super in-depth look at our baby BOY. {Gah, I can't stop saying the word boy, I can't believe it.} We did get a caution flag when the doctor found a blood clot on my placenta. They aren't super concerned, but they do want to monitor it to watch it's growth. Which means another ultrasound in four weeks. We are praying that it doesn't grow or even shrinks, which is possible. If it grows it could interfere with baby's growth. At this point baby boy is growing great--he is actually measuring about a week ahead. I'm not going to worry about this, but just give it to God and thank Him for all the positive news we heard today.
Now I have a confession, two nights ago I began researching things I want for a baby boy and started a blog post on a wishlist. Looks like I will be able to share that wishlist soon! I'm going to break the rumor that there aren't very many cute things for boys.
And thank you all for the sweet words on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram today. I keep reading all the thoughtful congrats. It's fun to spread the word with technology.

I'm not sure where that rumor began, but it's silly! Etsy and Internet shops withstanding, you can find tins of cute striped boy clothes at the Carter's outlet. It's true that the girl clothes usually outnumber the boys, but you're right that your boy won't lack for cuteness.;)
So thrilled for you!
so so SO happy for you, abra!!! this is so flipping exciting!! A BOY!! :)
Congrats! How excited for your girls to have a little brother. Hope you are feeling great!
Boys are SO wonderful :) He'll steal your heart!
Yay- I can't imagine how excited you all must be!!
Congratulations! Boys are so wonderful (as are girls, of course!)
Oh how wonderful!!! Congratulations!!! It's amazing what people will say, isn't it? I agree, no one should tell a pregnant woman {or any mama, for that matter} what gender of child they "need". I have a whole long list of things not to say {or ask} ;) One of them being: "So, you're done now, right?" when someone finds out that you have {gasp!} four children. Especially when you don't even really know the person who asked you. There are some gutsy people out there! LOL! :)
I also have 2 girls then a boy, love thrifting, the color grey and have a very handy husband.
Your boy will love pink and say "how cute", don't worry, it's normal.
That is so exciting! I bet you guys are so happy. I will be praying about the blood clot, but know you are in God's hands! Take it easy Momma and have a very blessed Christmas!
Yay! How fun!! & I think there are so many cute "boy things" out there! :)
Congratulations!! I'm hoping I find out on Friday :)
I'm SO excited for you! When I had Gray it was about the time I really went on the hunt for cute baby things because by the 3rd boy I wanted all new things. That's when I fell in love with Tea Collection and I think they continue to have the best boy's selection. I also used to shop at Little Boy Chic a lot, too. And often I like Target's boy section better than the girl's! Oooh and Kate Quinn Organics.
So happy for you!

Congratulations!!! Boys are awesomesauce! Praying for a little brother must really work. At least, it did for your girls and our oldest son. :)
Congratulations, Mama!
