It's a BOY!

We had our 20 week ultrasound and our baby looks healthy and very much like a boy. He was folded up like a burrito, with his head in his tummy and his legs up near his ears. Consequently, the tech couldn't get the necessary views of his face. I was bummed cause it means I have to have a second ultrasound to confirm that his face doesn't have any issues. Grrrr... I'm not a big fan of multiple ultrasounds and this means he will have a third.

BUT, a boy. That was really surprising to me. I guess I had thought it was a boy for a minute, but then really had in mind that it was a girl. I'm super excited though thinking about having one of each right at the beginning of our family. James is SUPER excited to have a son, which is so cute. Lily has started pointing to my belly and saying bebe. She is going to be a great big sister and already loves all babies.



Yeah for another Schmitt boy! I'm really excited thinking of a little missionary and Priesthood holder! The only problem now is a name. James and I are not on the same page...so stay tuned.

  1. Congratulations!! It's so fun to have one of each and fortunate to have them at the very beginning! Boys are a lot of fun! Good luck on the name. We had such a hard time coming up with a boy name that we both agreed on! So excited for you!!

  2. Ah, the naming game. Have fun! Congratulations!!!! Derek was so excited when we found out Isaac was a boy (well, we already knew but the u/s confirmed it) that he had half the family called before I was out of the bathroom to empty my poor over-hydrated bladder. I'm so happy for you and your little family.
