Boy, Oh Boy!

That's right, it's a BOY!

After months of secrets, we finally surprised our friends and family in Utah that we are expecting! They couldn't believe my little tummy, even though I feel that at 5 months there is nothing little about it, or will be for quite a while.

We had a lot of friends keeping the secret with us, and I don't think I want to keep it that long again. It is SO hard to watch what you post and what you let others post. :) But thanks to everyone who shared with us...it was WELL worth the look on all their faces.

Here are some tummy pictures that have been held back over the months. I'll get up some ultrasound pictures too.

The day we found out and I surprised Tristan with the little hat....it says "Future Cougar".

About 8 weeks....the before pictures. (note: I cropped my goofy expressions out...I hope you didn't want to see my face.) :)
About 15 weeks.
About 18 weeks.
Our Halloween costumes! No, we weren't Chef Boyardee and his stove, as was the popular guess.
My surprised mom in the middle of a grocery store. It was priceless!!
The day we found out it was a boy we bought some little blue outfits.
We call our little one Snoopy until we have a name. I happened to see this car in Utah. It looks EXACTLY like my car!
How I look today at 20 weeks and the shirt I surprised my family with.

Yay for a boy! Now I get to go baby shopping again. :-) I'm so glad that the word is out and that you were able to keep that a secret for so long!

Hooray! Your tummy is SO cute. Congrats on the boy! I wonder if Zomo will have any qualms about marrying a boy two years younger, or will she have to fight Abigail B. for him?

Congratulations! How fun that you were able to surprise your family! The fun part is that the pregnancy will go really fast for everyone that just found out. I love the picture of your Mom finding out.
