it's a good job...

did i mention that we are having another boy?  what???  

a beautiful rainbow.  will so miss these when we leave!  (look closely, it's almost a double!)

soccer...  and a cute man coaching!!!

reading with auntie byssa...

don't interrupt a busy man.  he had to take a work call during dinner....

oh, excuse us.  he wasn't done with his paper yet!!

life is good today...

this kid.  poor thing will struggle when we leave this island!

so, it dawned on me this week, that i am a "mother of boys".  i always thought that was reserved for someone who didn't have daughters.  and i had james, so i just thought, "i have a son".  and then chris- my mentality changed to "i have a girl and two boys".  but, i wasn't a "mother of boys".  and i would read these articles to "mothers of boys", and think of my friends who have 3 or more boys, and no girls.  

and i have even been telling people i will have a girl and THREE BOYS.  and it still didn't dawn on me that i am, in fact, a MOTHER OF BOYS.  (let me clarify.  that definition still applies to me with only one or two boys.  even though there is a girl in the mix.  i get that now!)

i was STUNNED when the cupcake was blue.  i was convinced that it was a girl.  not unhappy, mind you.  just so surprised!
