We're Having Another Boy!
| Mon, 03-05-2007 - 5:05pm |
We found out today that we are having our 3rd boy. Everyone is excited to be adding another male to the house and I'm still the only female, which may be a good thing, lol. We're not too sure about a name but I think we're going to continue our pattern, a name that ends in 'an' and a 'R' mn because this may be our last child.

Congratulations on your wonderful news! I am very excited for you and can't wait to hear your ideas for names. Keep us posted!
That's so weird, Terra ... I was just thinking about you today. Glad to hear all is well, and congrats on boy #3. ;)
Have you gotten the standard "Awww. Were you hoping for a girl?" reactions yet, or do people generally reserve that for the all-girl families? LOL

I won't be posting my ideas for names because I don't want my sister to know them until this little guy comes out. The name we had picked out for a girl was Calista Raine. We did have Zane Elliott picked out for a boy but we're not sold on it.

Glad to know someone was thinking of me. :)
I have gotten a few comments such as:
"Were you disappointed?" - by my mother
"Is Terra okay with that?" - by my mother-in-law
"Awww, that sucks" - by my sister-in-law
"But I wanted it to be a girl" - yelled by my oldest son, the youngest one kinda pouted about the news
Yes, we were kinda hoping for a girl but we're excited to have another boy. I'm not disappointed that this is a boy but I'm a little disappointed at the fact I may never have a little girl. Oh, and the string and needle trick, it's wrong, lol, for me anyhow.

Darn it! That was my shot at a boy (or at least predicted I'd talk dh into one more hehe).
I completely know what you mean, though. Couldn't be happier to be having another baby -- no matter the gender -- but kind of feel like you'll never get the chance to do all the "girly" stuff (or vice versa, in my case).
If you'd like a laugh, when my grandmother found out we were having another girl (I think with Aila ... it's all a blur now LOL), she actually said to my husband, "Oh ... well you'll love it anyway, once she's here." :( You know, as if he couldn't possibly bring himself to love another little girl, and she had to reassure him. ROFL Nice, Nan.
Congrats again! ;)

Congratulations, Terra, that's wonderful! Three boys...you are living my dream. :) I think it's a really special thing to be queen in a house of blue.
I think continuing your -an fn with an R- mn is a good idea. It's a way to tie all names together without using the same first initial. Is your sister pg as well? Is that why you're keeping your choices secret? If so, probably a smart idea.

Thanks, Annie. I haven't been around this board in awhile but I haven't forgotten it and the people here. My pregnancy has been okay. The first few months were rough with nausea 24/7 but once that was gone it actually has been a breeze (I hope typing that didn't jinx it, lol). The baby is active and kicking but not near as much as Ethan and Logan. He is measuring a bit bigger than where I'm at. I'm hoping this one isn't my biggest yet, Logan was 8 lbs. 14 oz. at 6 days early. I will be having a planned c-section as I've already had 2. My edd is July 14 but we've tentatively booked the c-section for July 6. I've been tired but that's to be expected. Oh, and I'm dying for some nice weather to get out and do some walking in. :)
Terra.
