It's official: We only produce boys!!! I will be the writer of "Little Men Two: the Mother That Kept Trying for a Girl". (In case you're not familiar, Louisa May Alcott, one of my favorite authors and one of the reasons I wanted to live on the east coast, wrote the original "Little Men: Life at Plumfield With Jo and the Boys"). We saw our little Charlie today and he made it very clear that he is and will remain a boy. We are really happy that he's so perfect...it was so relieving to have a non-dramatic ultrasound. We don't even have to go back for any follow-ups. I can't help but think though that he is a little naughty for not being a girl when I asked him very nicely to please be one. He seemed to make a big impression on the radiology tech too, she kept asking no one in particular why he was so active....he really wouldn't stay still at all and when she tried to see his face his hands would go right up to hide it. I don't blame him though, those techs are not very gentle and I can only imagine how that must seem to babies in their little watery cocoons. So congratulations to us! We are very good at making boys!
