We have a stomach bug!

Everyone, except Jeff. We woke up and were rushing to get to Church this morning, when we discovered that Jack had thrown up. I kept us all home, just in case. Then I succombed, and just now Lucy. Lucy, I think, is the most upset by it. The slightest trauma is the greatest drama! Although, I would vie for a close second because being pregnant with the flu, two other flu victims to clean up after, and a week's worth of meeting to get ready for, isn't my favorite thing.

I have to say that these issues with bodily fluids are my absolute least favorite part of being a mom. And I hate being in quarantine because it is lonely. And I already hate laundry, so extra laundry is just so much fun.

Ultrasound Pictures

Yesterday we had the big ultrasound for baby #3. Can you guess what it is?

Jeff is so excited that we are having another boy. I realized with Jack that I am bad at guessing the sex of the baby, so I tried very hard to not form an opinion this time.. Therefore, I wasn't surprised or not surprised because I wasn't voting one way or the other. I am very excited. Jeff was convinced that it was another girl because he wanted another boy, so he was very surprised. Pretty much everyone, except Danna's Jeff, had thought that it was a girl, so most were very surprised.

This one definitely has its own personality. He doesn't like to be pushed or prodded, and didn't cooperate very well with the ultrasound. We are having another ultrasound in two weeks because he wouldn't let us see his whole spine, or take very good profile pictures. But everything else looks very good and healthy. He is growing at the right pace, and my due date is still the same.

Lucy had decided a long time ago that it was a girl, and has been calling the baby, Clara, ever since. She knows that it is a boy now, but she won't say anything else on the subject.

Jack didn't really understand the whole thing, but he seems fine with the idea that he is having another brother.

As for names, we are not decided on a boy name. We had decided before getting pregnant on a girl name, but we are still tossing around ideas for this boy. Right now, we like Henry, calling him Hank when he gets older. I like Baby Henry. And as he gets to be a toddler, if he's anything like Jack, Hank the Tank will be a very appropriate nickname. Neither of the kids can properly say Hank or Henry, and are currently calling the baby "Henwy" or "Honk". I don't know if we will stick with Henry; we still have a few months. But right now, we kinda like it.
