Here are a few pictures of Brendon helping me clean. Yep, he had to help! I swept with a broom and he used this wood cleaner brush. He was so funny, following right behind me immitating as I swept the floors. He followed me the entire time, he was so cute! I also have a short video of him doing some tricks. He knows where his ears and nose are and will point to them when you ask him. When you ask him what sound a doggie makes he makes a woof woof sound. He also does a few other tricks like he tries to do the spider when you sing the incy wincy spider, he also puts up his thumb and finger when you sing the wiggles song “one finger, one thumb keep moving”. He is a funny little boy. He loves the show the wiggles and he learns new things everyday. He is really smart and is always trying to say new words. His latest is wiggle and you can kind of hear him trying to say it on the video after I say it. Well, things are great with us, Brendon is a big boy and growing quickly. And another exciting point is that next Tuesday I will finally find out what I’m having! I’ve been driving myself crazy and I can’t wait to find out if it’s a boy or a girl.

I read a really cute article the other day on cnn about a woman that had two boys and was pregnant. she really wanted a third boy and really didn’t want a girl. The receptionist at the doctor’s accidently told her she was having a girl when she had told them not to tell her what she was having. It was a cute little article about the differences between girls and boys. It’s funny because at first I really felt like I was having a boy, but then as the weeks went on more and more did I feel like I was wrong, that I was having a little girl. I’m so confused! With Brendon we easily saw ourselves with a boy, it was always a boy, I felt like it was a boy. Even when the stupid Provo Ultrasound place told me it was a girl, it still didn’t feel right and when my doctor did the ultrasound and corrected the mistake and said it is 100% a boy, I was in tears saying…”I knew it was a boy, I knew it was a boy!”

It was wierd but I really felt Brendon was a boy. This time around, I’m a little more confused. I don’t know if it’s just that I dont’ have the time to think or really feel any way cause I’m too busy with the little boy that’s in front of me, or if it’s just that my emotions of what I want are in the way this time. First time around, it didn’t matter cause I knew I’d have more. This time around, I don’t know if I’ll be having more after this one, so it makes me want a girl just so I can say that I don’t want to have any more kids just to try and have a girl. But then I think back to my inital plan of why I would have a second and it was to have a brother for Brendon. I kept thinking how perfect would it be for Brendon to have a little brother, a playmate, and I still think that. And it is true, even if I had a boy and didn’t have any more children later on, two boys are still awesome! Well, only 4 more days and then the Ultrasound will tell us all! At least it better tell me! Can’t wait to see either way!
