It's a BOY!!

Yep, it's another boy for the Riddle household! We couldn't be happier. While we would have loved this baby no matter if it had been a girl, we REALLY wanted another boy. We are so thankful and blessed that God saw fit to grant us another child, and that He even gave us the desires of our hearts by allowing it to be another boy.

I went to the doctor on Friday for a regular visit. When the md asked if I was having an ultra sound that day, I told her no. I told her that I had even called over to make sure I wasn't going to have one because I wanted one. She asked if I was wanting to know the gender. I said yes. So she said let's go see if they are busy back ultrasound.... and they were not! I was a little hesitant because Aaron had not gone to the appointment with me. They were gracious enough to do the ultra sound and seal the gender in an envelope so that we could open it together as a family. Briggs was with me because he was out of school, and he begged all day to open it. We went to a friend's house later that evening and allowed him to open it in the midst of some of our closest friends. When he read, "it's a boy," he then said, "yes! now we can wrestle together!" I thought it was so sweet. Aaron and I breathed a sigh of relief because we weren't quite sure what we would do with a girl! We would love whatever gender baby we have, but we are certainly grateful for another little boy!
