It's A Boy!

We are very excited to say that Baby Davies #3 is a boy!  We had our ultrasound last week and found out most importantly the baby is healthy and growing, and were pleased to see that we will be equalizing the genders a little at the Davies house.  To make a big splash for the gender reveal, we had a balloon drop for our family that was in town including Brian's parents, my parents, my siblings, their spouses, and my cousin. We blew up 24 blue balloons and put them in black bags so you couldn't tell the gender.  We said, "Thanks for coming out to see what Baby Davies will be.  We already have two girl, let's see if we'll have three."  We opened the bags of balloons from our landing over the family room and let them fall.  It was a special moment and one I want to remember forever.
During the girls' princess birthday party later that week, surveying the amounts of pink, princess, and bling in our house, I noted to Brian that things were going to have to change a lot in here to accommodate a boy.  I think Brian and my brother had our little boy's baseball themed 1st birthday all but planned by the princess party's end, even though it is a good 16 months away!
I think it was great to find out the sex and give the girls and us some time to adjust.  I can't wait to get started on the rooms.  Kate was actually super disappointed the baby was a boy.  She basically told us no, she wanted another baby girl.  By the end of the night she was warmed up to the idea a little, and is doing much better with the news now.  Kate claims she can see what the baby is doing through my belly button and says he has cute fingers.  Megan has been giving my belly kisses and wanting to "see" the baby too.  The other day she was telling the baby to come out!  She also adorable said, "Hi Baby.  I Meggie.  This is my Mama."  It just melts my heart.  Lots of fun, lots of planning, and lots of excitement here this month!
