I can't believe it's been almost 19 weeks and I have yet to blog about our newest addition to the Snider family!! I found out around June 20th that I was pregnant, but I decided to wait until Father's Day to tell Darrin. I blogged about our day, but I wanted to hold off on our announcement for a few weeks. I knew that we would be going on vacation soon and we wanted to wait and tell everyone in person, rather than through our blog or facebook.
So here are the pictures that I left off from the blog telling Daddy we are having another baby! I wanted to think of a neat way to tell him, but I knew it had to be something quick. All the suggestions on the internet were these long drawn out ways and I knew Darrin would catch on. So I just decided to make him a Father's Day card, it read:
Happy Father's Day
We Love You
Love Mommy
Reagan
And Baby #2!!
At first he thought it was Reagan's baby, (the one he is holding)
then he started to catch on.
After, I let him open his last present, which were the 2 pregnancy tests that I had taken that said positive.
(I love all his facial expressions in these)
And now it's been more than 3 months since that day, and today, we found out Baby Snider #2 is a BOY!!! We have had a stressful couple of weeks prior to today. One of our blood screening test came back high for down syndrome, the second one came back negative for the down syndrome, but high for an open neural tube defect. We were supposed to go in for an ultrasound next week, but because of all the blood work they wanted us to see a specialist right away. We spoke with a genetics counselor today and had our ultrasound. Thankfully everything is okay and we have a perfectly healthy baby boy. I do have to go in to have another sonogram in 4 weeks to check the placenta, it was low, and to check the growth of the baby. But we are extremely blessed and excited to have a healthy baby boy.
Here is Reagan showing off her little brother!
And here are some pictures of the little guy. Can you believe we're having a boy?!!
