She might have guessed correctly in the past, but Kaylee was dead wrong on this one—our baby is a boy! Huzzah! It looks like Kaylee doesn't have any magical divination powers, she's just a lucky guesser. Or maybe our baby's just tricksy. I guess we'll have to wait and see if she's right about her new sibling. She's predicted boy for that one. But either way my faith in her is gone. :)
I'm so excited to starting pimping out Li'l Cleatus's room and collecting pirate and BYU football gear. Awesome. Hooray! Yahoo for boys! And soon we'll have our first contribution to the Silvey Family Football Club (and by football I mean soccer this time). Li'l Cleatus will make 4 grandsons, so we're well on our way to a team. And if Heather has a boy later this year, then even better. I think Nate might be a little sad that he doesn't get his princess yet, but he is excited for our boy. I'm excited to see if he gets his dad's chiseled abs and stunning features.
During the ultrasound today everything looked great and normal. And the pictures show that he is definitely a he. The doctor had to work pretty hard to get the money shot, but it worked fine in the end. He kept poking me with the ultrasound wand thingy to try and get the baby to move around and show his goods. I'll see if I can scan some of the images and get them posted. The pictures turned out really clear. Li'l Cleatus measured exactly 20 weeks and 0 days, which is right where we thought I was. So my due date is staying the same—July 4th. Actually, according to the ultrasoundologist man, my due date is July 4th at 7:00 am. He seemed pretty confident, so I'm going to plan on it. I figure I'll pop the baby out at 7:00 am and be ready to hit the parade by 10:30 am. No sweat.
My next doctor's appointment is on Monday the 25th, so I'll probably have another update then. In the meantime, here's a little something to tide you all over: The Office will return with 6 new episodes starting on April 10th. Mark your calendars. This is important stuff.

HOORAY! I've been thinking about you all morning. By the way,I love the music. You are an 80's freak. Too bad you were born just a few years too late to really enjoy the fulness of the era. Everytime I hear 80's music I think of you without fail. Love you!
Boys are awesome! (Not that girls aren't, but in this case boys rule.) I'm so excited for you. Actually, I imagine you being the mother of a mighty army of Helaman someday...except they'll be caucasian instead of aboriginal American.
Hooray for boys! I hope your son is half as cute and crazy and smart as ours. Just kidding! Mason is excited to have a new cousin. He just doesn't know it yet.
Congratulations! Boys are a handful, but so much fun! It is also great that any other little ones you have will have a big brother. July 4th is a great day! That's Nathan's birthday. The 3rd and 5th are pretty good days, too. We ahve a lot of July Birthdays in our family. Our baby is due August 1st, but will be born in July.
We want pictures, we want pictures, we want pictures...
