Introducing L'il Vamp

So we went along for the 20 week ( although technically 21 week ) scan today, nurse told us everything is okay - 1 head, 2 legs & 2 arms!

I had decided that as Nic can never keep  a secret I may as well know wether we are having a boy or girl, no way would i not get to find out before the birth as most of her friends & particularly her dad are the type of people who will tell you about a surprise party 3 weeks in advance. And the answer is........we are having a BOY.

I know we both wanted a girl but neither of us are disappointed, this child will get so much love from both of us that we couldn't care less if it was an alien ( although if it was an alien we'd probably take advantage & make lots of money!! ). The 2 photo's above are the first scan from 25th august & todays scan. It was amazing how much you can see, he's just like his mum because throughout the entire scan his little mouth was going non-stop, & towards the end he put his hand in his mouth - looked like he was trying to eat it. He's also very much like me as no matter what the nurse did to get him to move so she could get a decent photo for us he was having none of it, I hate having my photo taken too so whenever the camera's come out i'll hide out with l'il vamp.

After the scan we went into town & bought some little t shirts, bibs & playsuits for him ( all blue or white of course ). On the bus from the hospital to town Nic started going on about the next one being a girl.....WE HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THIS LITTLE FELLA YET!!!!!!!! The amount of hand me downs we're going to get has suddenly plummeted as most people we know have had girls & no way am I letting my son be dressed in pink.

Anyway, we are gonig into town again tomorrow to do some more shopping & today I got a phone call from argos who are delivering our new king size bed next saturday so just over a week left sleeping on the horrible old one we have now. My curry's just turned up so I'm off to have my dinner....love to you all...  Vamp x
