We found out on my birthday that we are having a…

BOY!!

We are so excited to be having another little boy, and it turns out that Spencer wasn’t right on when he predicted he’d be getting a sister.  We can hardly wait. 

So, I’m really late getting anything published but here’s Spencer’s birthday!

Lots of exciting things are going on around here.  Spencer turned 3!  It’s crazy how big that boy is getting so fast.  Here are some pictures from his 3rd birthday.

Here is a bunch of pictures from his 3 year old portraits.

What does a Monster Say?

Here are somethings I’ve noticed about Spencer:

• He is so tall for his age (97% percentile) and skinny (52% percentile)
• He is a complete sweetie
• He is such a good helper and LOVES to do it
• His favorite show is Phineas and Ferb
• His favorite movie is now a toss up between Toy Story and Winne the Pooh (the new one)
• He loves peanut butter and honey or jelly sandwiches
• He loves playing with his friends, but cries when they take toys from him
• He loves playing with his Daddy more than anyone else

That’s right.  We are having another baby!! The baby is due around May 12th, 2012, and Spencer has been telling us that he is having a sister for a while now.  So, we assume he is hoping for a sister.    We don’t actually find out if it’s a boy or a girl until December 15 (ish).

Funny story about Spencer and the baby (already).  This is the conversation we had for a long time:

Mom: Spencer, are you going to have a sister or a brother?

Spencer: 2 sisters!

Mom:  Oh really, are you going to have 2 sisters at the same time or different times?

Spencer: …  (then runs off)

Eventually, we’ve gotten him to tell us that they are coming at different times, but it was a little scary there for a second.  I’m excited to see if he’s right.  We don’t have a preference one way or the other, but we’re really excited.
