He's a BOY!

After initially thinking that we'd keep it a secret, we've now decided to let it out, and he's a BOY! So we kept the secret for about 36 hours. We're halfway there and excited all over again.

We were both pretty much equally excited about either boy or girl, so it's a little sad to let go of all the little girl daydreams for a while at least. But we couldn't be happier that we're having a little boy, and as a bonus the room is already blue (and it was staying that way no matter what, but now it's more appropriate I guess). So now we're talking to the kid using his name (which we ARE withholding...really) and it makes it that much more real.

Today we completed the task of registering for baby junk. It's quite overwhelming, especially at babies-r-us. But we had a faithful guide in Erin (Harris) Wood, who has a 6 month old boy, so she knows what she's talking about. So now we've got lists at Babies-R-Us and Target. Bring on the tidal wave of baby junk.
