BLUE.
Holy crap-o!
DH and O totally thought we were having one of each. Not sure why we did, but we just did.
It is fun to begin picking out things for them knowing what to actually buy!
While, we'd still love to have a little girl one day, we know we are damn lucky to have the ones we've got! And hey-- there are still two more embryos in the deep freeze if we ever decide to go again.
In the meantime-- We have OUR BOYS!
