Today was the day.

So I was pretty much 100% sure this was a girl when I first got preggo. I just couldnt get the feel for a boy. Knew it was a girl. Well the last two nights I havent slept at all because I keep having dreams Im having a boy. Had those 2 dreams that one night and then another one last night. So I was about 90% sure it was a boy going in.... Scott was 99% Girl until I told him my dreams and then he went to 25% boy. Just so ya know. lol
The whole way to the hospital I had a pouting boy! His name was Scott. He sulked and pouted about "Why cant we find out! This is so pathetic!" I had already decided that we would find out...but didnt want him to know. lol I said to him, "You are just wondering why you are even here, arent ya!" Hes said yes. Turd! *rolleyes* So on the way up in the elevator I whispered in his ear... "Ok, we will find out" You would have thought it was Christmas. He was excited. So we get up there...she does all the technical stuff... make sure we had a healthy baby... AND WE DO!!! :woo Everything looked good! Except Im measuring about 18w2d. Instead of 19w6d. But no biggie. Its in the 2 week vacinity so they arent changing my due date. So thats it! We are excited....

Oh wait, did I forget something???

Must be that preggo brain setting in......

I know there must be something......................

Oh, you wanna know what it is?

AND WHAT A BOY. ;)

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland in speaking of the divinity of The Book of Mormon said: For 179 years this book has been examined and attacked, denied and deconstructed, targeted and torn apart like perhaps no other book in modern religious history—perhaps like no other book in any religious history. And still it stands. Failed theories about its origins have been born and parroted and have died—from Ethan Smith to Solomon Spaulding to deranged paranoid to cunning genius. None of these frankly pathetic answers for this book has ever withstood examination because there is no other answer than the one Joseph gave as its young unlearned translator. In this I stand with my own great-grandfather, who said simply enough, “No wicked man could write such a book as this; and no good man would write it, unless it were true and he were commanded of God to do so.” I testify that one cannot come to full faith in this latter-day work—and thereby find the fullest measure of peace and comfort in these, our times—until he or she embraces the divinity of the Book of Mormon and the Lord Jesus Christ, of whom it testifies. I ask that my testimony of the Book of Mormon and all that it implies, given today under my own oath and office, be recorded by men on earth and angels in heaven. I hope I have a few years left in my “last days,” but whether I do or do not, I want it absolutely clear when I stand before the judgment bar of God that I declared to the world, in the most straightforward language I could summon, that the Book of Mormon is true, that it came forth the way Joseph said it came forth and was given to bring happiness and hope to the faithful in the travail of the latter days.
