IT'S A BOY!!!!!

We had our ultrasound yesterday, and we're having a boy! We are so excited!!!! It is funny to hear people's responses to the fact that we're having a boy. We get them all from, "It's because you're in the USU 57th ward and everyone is having boys!" to "It's because you ate a lot of cereal!" (There's been a recent study on this.) While so many people are set on why this is why we're having a boy, we know ultimately it's because it's what the Lord wants us to have. It's so humbling to know that we will be raising this baby to grow to be a righteous priesthood leader in the kingdom of God. Every day I pray (and mostly plead) with the Lord so that I will be in tune with the Spirit to raise our baby up in righteousness so that he will be able to withstand the adversary! Now my prayers are that he will be like unto Moroni! :-) Although he may not do what Moroni did, he might certainly be as physically strong! Have you seen Josh?? He's a hunk! I'm sure he and Moroni look very much alike. Ha ha ha! Anyway, our little boy is healthy and his due date is right on schedule! We are so excited and very nervous for this journey!
