BOY!  We decided to do the same as we did with evalana and have a gender reveal party after our ultrasound. Somehow this announcement seems too big and important for it to come from the ultrasound tech stranger as "well i think maybe i see a penis" or something like that. And there's no way we'd want to wait until the baby's birthday to find out. We've got to have some time to name this baby, plus i just love knowing. The ultrasound showed everything looked normal so far, and we're so thankful for this healthy baby. They also put my due date at December 15th (I think at the 10 week appointment, they said Dec. 14-16), although I'm still determined that this baby will not come until December 17th or after, and, when I counted up the 266 days, I came up with December 19th as the real due date.
