The Diagnosis.....

Well I went to the doctor yesterday for an ultrasound and check-up...we also found out what we are having!! Take a looksie:

I know the pictures aren't the greatest...HE was being a little stinker and kept trying to hide....Thankfully I have a video tape of the whole thing...It was so much fun to see HIM move around....It does a Mother's heart good!! I'm so exciting I'm having a BOY!! :) Everything looks really good too...I still have the same due date and during the whole thing, the ultrasound tech kept going back to his feet and kept saying "Look at the toes on that baby!! It must run in the family!!" (If you know anything about the Boyles side of the family - they pride themselves on their toes....) Needless to say Daddy is pretty proud...It really was a good day...Porter is so excited!! He told everyone at my Dr.'s office that he was getting a brother....If you ask Lily though she still says it's a sister....I think she's in denial..... :)

In other news here are a couple things I've made in the past little bit when I've had my rare moments of non-sickeness:


Both were made using the May Kit from My Scrapbook Nook....It such a pretty kit!! I think my favorite part is the stamps though...GORGEOUS!! Speaking of kits at the Nook, Leah just revealed the June kit...Are you ready to see another AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS kit?? Leah does the most wonderful work putting these together that's for sure!!



If you are interested in this kit you can buy it HERE....there are limited amounts this month and if you do decide to get it make sure and put me as your referral!! :) There is also a couple of contests going on over there....This one will have a bunch of challenges and at the end they tally up the points and the winner gets a $75 gift certificate to the Nook....This one will have 4 different challenges and each one will allow you to be eligible for another gift certificate to the Nook...If you are bored stop by and say hi and play along with us!! :)

Well, anyhoo.....Things are going by slow but fast around here...Its a good thing though...I find myself wanting to just read books lately...I think that's a good thing as well...Books are such a wonderful escape!! I see alot more trips to the Library this summer for us that's for sure!! I'm also open for recommendations....I'm always up for a good read!! :) Ben has been working alot lately at both of his jobs...the extra money has been so helpful so we are grateful for him doing that...I don't think I could do it!! I'm very proud of him. :) The kids are doing wonderful too...all they want to do is play outside or play with legos...Its already in the 80's here so more often than not they are playing with legos until it's not so hot outside...Darn Mom and her need to be "cool"....Porter is always turning off my fans I have blazing...He says he hates wind...I'm constantly turning them back on...He's such a sneak!

Well the kids are begging me for lunch and I feel a rumble in my tummy that needs filled so I shall write again soon!! :)

I must say that I am a little jealous that you know what you are having. I have seen my little one on ultra sound seven times now and it still won't show itself. We've just decided to have a surprise. How for you to have another little boy...and I think Lily will love him just the same when she meets him. Congrats and keep up the great work on your layouts!

Opps, meant to say, "How fun for you...."
