We are having a....

BOY!

My mom and Koen came with me to the doctors this morning for my ultrasound, because Phil could not get off his rotation. We are having a boy, loud and clear. It was funny cause the tech was like "do you want to know the sex?" and I said "yes" so she scrolled down and we both said "oh...boy" Not shy. I wouldn't have really been surprised either way, because I had no idea. There were definitely reasons for wanting both, but I feel like the best way I can put it is: If I got to choose I would want a boy because it is the exact season as Koen(so I have all the stuff) and I know I want another boy so why not have them closer in age BUT I wish I could have the guarantee of a girl next time. I would be really sad if I never have a girl. So I would have liked a girl mostly so I wouldnt have to stress next time. Ü
Anway we have a healthy little brother and Koen couldn't be more excited. Phil called when we were leaving and I handed the phone to Koen and said "say hi to dad" and he said "Hi dad, I getting a brother!" So cute. I really cant believe that A-I am going to have 2 kids and B- I am going to have 2 boys....yikes!
People have been asking for some pictures so here you go....me and the babe, and just the babe.
19 weeks
20 weeks

100% boy and not shy about it!
Cute little profile
Another profile

PS can I just say I am so sick of looking borderline pregnant/chubby. Seriously sick of it.

Congrats!!! How fun to have 2 little guys running around together. They are going to be best buds. And, so great that you already have the clothes, etc. Cute pics too, but I have to say, you definitely look preggers, not chubbers!

congratulations! That is so exciting to finally be able to see the baby--that made it more real for me. I feel the exact same way-I want a girl sometime obviously, but i wouldn't mind a boy next for Tate to play with, so they can be buds.

The Ballou's said...

Congrats! That is so exciting. They will be best buds.

Natalie Carver said...

Oh Yeah I am so excited for you! How fun for Ko~! You look great~

The Brown Family said...

I feel like you looked more pregnant in the 19 weeks pic that you did in the bare belly shot, haha!
And, wow, that boy is not shy at all! LOL! That was some shot he gave you!
We're so happy for you guys!
You look so cute ;o) Miss you!

Melanie and Daniel said...

You are so cute pregnant!! And for your second you don't look big at all. Aren't you supposed to get bigger faster with your second? Congrats on the boy!!

Jake and Linzey Jordison said...

Congrats on baby boy #2. I agree, I am also sick of looking pregnant/chubby. People look at you who don't know you are pregnant and don't know what to say. You look really cute too!

Kelsey said...

You look so cute pregnant, congrats on the boy.

Brittany Crane said...

I always wanted two boys first so congrats on that. However I can see your need to have girl-they are so fun to dress up.
Oh and about the chubby thing-yeah right!! You could never look chubby. You are sooo tiny!! I do remember the first time a lady at the store asked me if I was having a boy or a girl. I was so excited someone could tell I was having a baby and not just fat that I thanked her! haha

Yeah for having another boy. From experience in having two of the same gender in a row, I love it! We are in the same pressure boat as you are in with producing a third child that is the other gender of what we have now. I had to roll my eyes when you said you looked chubby. You look amazing! I wish I was your brand of chubby. You seriously look fabulous! I was delighted to Dr. L's name on the ultrasound. Yay yay for you! And yes we do need to get together.

Julie said...

You seriously look so cute!!! And can I just say I am so excited that you are having a boy. That is what I voted on your poll... actually I voted twice :) Koen is going to love having a little brother! I wanted Benson to be a boy just so Sammy could have a little brother. So excited!!!!

Amie said...

you look so cute. That will be nice to be able to use the same cloths as you did for Koen.

kori said...

congrats! and for the record, you look amazing!

Ian, Kels & Lilly said...

Congrats on baby boy number 2! You look awesome and not at all chubby.

Cristin said...

Thompson Family said...

Congrats on the news! Having two of the same close together is lots of fun:) We're excited for you guys!

Levi and Suzi said...

You are seriously one of the cutest little (and I do mean little...you're tiny!) pregnant ladies EVER! Congrats on the very "outgoing" boy!

becca said...

I am so excited for you guys! I love having two little boys! They are such good little buddies and it is so much fun! I am with you though, I am going to be stressing next time because I want a girl so bad. You look amazing by the way!

Snedaker Family said...

Congrats! I am so excited for you! You will just love having 2 boys! We miss your guts!

Okay so that pic is hallarious of his legs wide open...Maybe he is going to be your wild child after Mild Ko! And I am glad that you are doing the boy thing too, for the mear fact that you have the stuff, but You know I think it is funny when people say they will be best buds...all you can do is hope! I know you know what I am talking about...oh and I commented on a few posts back just so you know! Love you sis...I will be rooting for a girl next time because for some reason I feel a little pressure to have all the girls in the lovell family...but for now I am excited for boy #2...now name him please so I don't have to call him that any more!

Jewmormondruggist said...

Hey, congrats on that. I'm sure Phil is excited for another boy. Did he do a victory dance like he did when he found out Koen was male? I hope school is going well for you. Just think, only two more rotations left before graduation. Eeee!

Angie said...

Lesha-
So exciting! I have been checking often, waiting for you to annouce what your having. Two boys will be SO fun. I will be checking back to see what his name will be! Congrats.

Yay! So exciting! That picture is hilarious! Congrats on potty training also. What a relief - so nice to not have two kids in diapers. :)

Sean and Mekensy said...

Congrats!!! I'm so excited for you. I had a feeling it was a boy! That will be way fun for Koen! You look so stinkin cute!!!

Giron Family said...

Whoa yeah, that lil guy is not shy. I think that is the first time I've looked at a sonogram and knew exactly what I was seeing!
Love your cute lil belly. I hate that stage where you don't look prego, just chubby...Or in my case, I look prego AND chubby the whole time! Now you know why I'm afraid to do that again!
Fun to have another boy!

Stacey said...

It beats the huge and uncomfortable!!!!

em said...

Yay, that is awesome that you are having a boy! I know what you mean about a girl though. I told Dan we are going to have to adopt if we don't get one. Be happy you are at the stage you are. I have two weeks left and it is painful. I can hardly walk, (and I have gained 40lbs and seem to be gaining 1 lb a day) - Congrats again!!!

McKenzie said...

Yeah for boys!! Our guy wasn't shy either. So when is your due date? Your little ticker says you are almost 19 weeks but I am like 25 and I thought we were almost overlapping. Oh... and you do not look one ounce chubby! You look adorable!

Kara said...

So funny! I love that we are in the exact situation!! :) Except you boys and me girls :) I know, we were keeping our fingers crossed for a boy, since it will be our last biological child, but we are excited of course for the girl. Your belly is sooo cute! You would die if you saw mine! Ha, not so cute. I look like I have been beat! I have bruises all over my tummy and sides from my shots, so it really wouldn't have been pretty :) We should go swimming again soon! Mia had so much fun and that pool was so warm!

Tayna said...

Alesha I'm so dang excited for you! They WILL be buddies if you instill that in them, help them know how much they love each other. Keagan adores Ryker and was the first person Ryker smiled at. :) I'm totally with ya on the wanting a girl next time though, you and me both. You are such a cute prego, I luv the belly!

Lisa said...

Is it weird that in the ultrasound picture I can already see a resemblance between him and Koen? He is going to fit RIGHT in the family. Seriously...he already looks like your child. Miss ya!

jolyne77 said...

CONGRATS !!!!! Yeah~

Snedaker Family said...

Really.... I am comment #42, are you really going to ever get this?? Can I just tell you that today we had a little Valentine Party and Max asked if Koen was coming! So sad! He still thinks you are vacationing in Utah! HA HA. But, the best of all was that in the mail today he had a special valentine from Koen! He was thrilled! YOu are to good! Thanks Koen! We miss you!

Michelle Baird Designs said...

Well, I am playing blog catch up. So CONGRATULATIONS. I love that Koen will be a big brother to his little brother. You look fantastic. Hope you are feeling well too.
