I hope you all had a GREAT Thanksgiving! I know we enjoyed our time with family.
These two…
…well…they are VERY thankful.
For they are going to be getting a new BABY BROTHER!
BOYS BOYS BOYS for this mama! Holy CRAZINESS…someone save me from all the penis’s! LOL.
I know many of you will be disappointed because you were REALLY hoping for a baby girl (MIL included), but HONESTLY…I just adore my boys and I know that this is God’s plan for me. It’s just meant to be.
It’s not to say that there will NEVER be a girl in our future. Who knows…maybe one day there will be a number 4. But, for now…House of Rose is pretty darn content with having 3 beautiful boys to love on! And how cute will they be together, right?
I know a bunch of you were curious as to how I found out so early and here is the answer. I had the nuchal translucency test done, which is a test that helps assess your baby’s risk of having Down syndrome (DS) and some other chromosomal abnormalities as well as major congenital heart problems. I always opt to have the test. Not that it would change anything. But, I’m TYPE A…remember? I like to plan.
The test is done between 11 and 13 weeks by ultrasound. I had it done with Bents and we could not see the “boy parts” when we looked. However, when we looked “down there” during this ultrasound…
I think you can see why it was easy to tell the gender. 
I actually knew almost immediately when I saw this shot.
We are very EXCITED to be adding a THIRD boy to our family! We will continue to pray that he is just as healthy and cute as our first two!

aaaaaaaaawh I kinda knew it
Happy to hear that. the most important thing is that the baby is healthy and that the pregnancy is going well for you. 
boys rock.
Congrats on baby boy #3!! I know he will be just as cute as the first two
My dr office never even offered that test… just the quad screen. I’ll find out in 2 weeks if my son will have a brother or sister! I can’t wait to follow your progress!
From one mom of three boys to another CONGRATS! I promise there will never be a dull moment in your household!
And be ready for everyone to start asking if you are going to try for a #4/a girl.

Yay! Congrats!!!
That is so exciting!! I so know that is what would have happened to us! Although, I am like you, love the boys!
Congrats on baby boy #3!! I’ve always wanted 3 boys so I’m actually a little jealous. He definitely wasn’t shy with his “parts” was he? Haha.

Congrats! People always ask me if I want a girl and as much as I would have loved one, we are done having kids and I love my boys. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Congrats again. Can’t wait to hear what his name will be. I love the names your kids have.
