Did Kraig Spill the Beans???

Since Tuesday people have been saying "So did Kraig spill the beans?" and I just wanted to brag on my husband and say he has been awesome about this. He has wanted to know from the beginning, however he knew I didn't, so he never said a word! So no, Kraig did not spill the beans...

Kraig kept the secret...I just knew deep down that it was a boy (since they told us at 11 weeks they thought it was a boy) so Tuesday all day I was just thinking "it's a boy!" so Kraig and I went to dinner that night with Lauren and I started thinking of how in 4 months we would have Kraig, Colton, me and Lauren...our perfect little family. So when we got home I put Lauren to bed and Kraig was rubbing my belly asking how "the baby" was doing and I said "HE is doing great" and Kraig said "why do you say it that way?" and I was like "it just hit me today...it's for sure a boy and I'm ok with knowing!" so Kraig said "I don't know what to say at this point?!?!!?" and then I said "It just hit me today that it's a boy and I don't want to go the next 4 months knowing it's a boy and pretending like I don't know" and I of course started crying from excitement/realization...not sure why...hormones! LOL...so he said "do you want to watch the video?" and so we did and he was so excited that I knew because he said it's been hard for him to not show his excitement because he didn't want me to know if I didn't want to know...so we are SUPER excited AND I realized that when I had Lauren when she was asleep I had time to do things around the house...well with Colton I won't have that time because I'll also be taking care of Lauren...so the more I prepare now the better. :-)

I guess since our Dr. told us at 11 weeks without us asking/wanting to know it was kind of a shocker and took a bit of the surprise away for me because with Lauren I didn't find out for sure until 22 weeks and the first we even thought it might be a girl was at 18 weeks...so I had 18 fun weeks of wondering 'boy or girl?'...but with this one it was on our 2nd appointment! So I guess since I knew the ultrasound was one of those 'scheduled' things I just was not ready yet and wanted it to be on my own terms...ya know? So I knew I would probably want to know eventually...but at our ultrasound I just wasn't ready. I know it may sound weird to some because some want to know the day they conceive...but since this is our last planned pregnancy, I want to cherish every moment and make it special...so I just wanted to know on my own terms and not have them take away the surprise/guessing game I guess. :-)
