Gender Reveal Video and update!!

HELLO LADIES!!!  So I FINALLY had my anatomy scan on the 9th of October.  I have to go back November 2nd to have another scan because the baby moved around SO MUCH that she couldn't get a good picture of the spine.  We did, however, find out the gender.  I'll post the gender reveal video I made for my friends.  I had to wait to tell my husband, because he was at training when I had the scan.  We decided that I would paint my toes either pink or blue to surprise him with the gender.  I made a FAKE gender cake that I "accidentally" left out when he walked in. It was completely pink and I made him believe that it was a girl.  I made him think I forgot to put it away and felt horrible and asked him to still act surprised when we skyped with his mom and showed her my toes, which were covered with socks.  So in the video, you'll see the moment he pulls my sock of and was completely relieved and surprised.  LOL He REALLY wanted a boy.

Look at his smile! LOL He was so excited!!!

Today I am 21 weeks and 3 days pregnant with our extremely active and huge baby boy!  At the scan I was 20 weeks and he was only suppose to weight around 10 ounces and the tech said he was weighing just under 15 ounces.  HOLY FOOTBALL STAR BATMAN!!!  No wonder his kicks are SUPER visible.  He's going to be a freaking Hulk! LOL!!  I'm a little scared of how big he'll be at time of delivery, but I know God wont give me anything I can't handle.  I'm just nervous, that's all.  I hold the record as the heaviest birth weight in my family.  I really don't want to break that record with my son. I'd be perfectly happy having an average sized baby. lol.

Our little man! I can't help but stare at this picture.
So beautiful!

Wish us luck!  Husbandy got back Monday, but leaves again for a month for NTC tomorrow.  He had to make a run to his office and file some paperwork, so I'm going to go so I can clean up house a little and make sure he has nothing to do but relax when he gets back.  It sucks having to let him go all the time and never getting to spend time with him.  The military life is definitely not for the weak. lol.  Thank God my momma raised me to be a strong independent woman.  Now that God has blessed us with this strong baby boy, he keeps me pretty entertained while daddy's away.  I LOVE watching him kick.  He goes crazy when I play music or when I sing to him.  So much fun!

Stay Safe and God Bless!
