Baby Pulsipher is a...?

So since none of this pregnancy was a surprise....since it really couldn't be, I really wanted to have at least one part of it a big and exciting surprise....finding out the gender.  We had it all planned out.  My aunt from Cali does photography and was excited for something to of course build her variety of pics on her page.  She was going to be down the exact week that I was 20 weeks.  This week :)  We were going to have the ultrasound tech not tell us the gender but put the picture in an envelope.  We would then give it to my aunt Torrie and she would fill a box that we had decorated, with either pink or blue balloons and then we'd have a photoshoot opening the box and discovering the gender of our baby to be.

After graduating from the Fertility Center, it was time for us to move on and find a Doctor here in Vernal.  I heard wonderful things about Dr. Nolte and decided that he was the one to go to (since I had experience with other Doctors here that I was NOT impressed with).  Also, Dr. Nolte is the only specialized Dr. here.  So when I called I was about 13 weeks and they needed me to get in asap.  They take their patients up to 8 weeks, so I was grateful they would still let me come.  Dr. Nolte was seriously wonderful.  He listened and understood things and was more than happy to answer all of our questions.  He happily agreed to the things that we wanted and didn't want in this pregnancy.  We were then taken back to have the ultrasound, which compared to the ones we had previously seen, it was really hard to make out anything that we were seeing.  After the first 8 or 9 shots, Dr. Nolte stops on one and my adorable husband.....exlaims, "That's a penis!"  Dr then agreed that sure enough it sure looked like one of those.  I would upload the pic if I could, but it's on my phone and I don't have a scanner.  But it was taken from beneath him, so all we could see was his bottom, two cute little legs and something definitely in between.  Are you serious!?  13 weeks!?  Bailey was not excited for the fact that we would have to wait so long to find out the gender, so the entire time he was looking for that one thing and he surely found it and messed up my cute lil surprise! :)  Oh well.  It's funny, because a couple days before the appt Bailey had said that he felt like we were going to have a girl.  Now, let me tell you.  I was definitely wanting a girl.  I wanted to paint her nails and dress her up (which all disgusted Bailey as he wanted her to be a plain chick, into motorcycling and such).  But I was such a believer in being "jinxed" that whenever I was asked what I wanted I would reply, "Either."  :)  But when Bailey asked what he felt like I was having....I really felt like I was having a boy.  And sure enough we were.  I thought that was pretty neat and most definitely know that mothers are in tune to the little ones that they are carrying.  But when I saw the ultrasound, I was ecstatic.  So in-case of it being an accident, and what looked like a little boy ended up being the umbilical cord, we felt best that we keep it a secret.  But that didn't work out well. Whenever I was asked if we knew the gender, or whenever I was with family, my face couldn't hide it.  So now it is out!  We haven't seen a good picture of "him" since the 13 week ultrasound, but are pretty sure that we will be having a beautiful boy entering our home in November.  I am pretty excited to have another little Bailey running around.  There is never a dull moment.  :)  As far as names.....we haven't found one.  : /
