Blue

It's official: The peanut is a BOY!!

Yup - come March the gender scales will be more even in the Mangiaracina household with me and Lucy holding it down for the girls and Ed and our future son representing for the fellas. And we couldn't be more excited. Lucy even showed some excitement when she heard the news!

We just found out the great news this morning at our 20-week sonogram. And I am happy to report that this baby boy is healthy as can be and is growing at the correct rate. All parts are present and accounted for!

Now that we know the news, the pregnancy is that much more special. We can actually refer to the baby as "he" and "him" vs. "goy" and "shim". And you know that the planning will be kicked into high gear now! And even though it is a boy, we plan to keep things ~ especially the nursery ~ fairly gender neutral so don't expect to see baby blue coming out of our ears around here. :)
