Baby Flavors
Well our poll for everyone to guess the baby gender is now closed. The results were pretty close - 13 votes for Boy and 12 votes for a Girl. Of course, the voting doesn't matter since the baby is what it is. However, this time the majority was correct! We're having another little boy! We're excited for Sam's little brother to join us in April. Eric has thought it was a boy from almost the moment we found out I was pregnant. He thinks that the dad has an intuition about it, and so far he's been right, so I guess I can't really question that! Everything looked normal and good with measurements and health-wise which of course is the most important thing.
So, here are some pictures from the ultrasound. I think the sonographer went through a little bit quicker than usual so it seems like they aren't as clear as they were with Sam. They'd had someone come in with a miscarriage this morning which I'm sure threw everything off. But I'm not upset, so long as the baby looks healthy and normal, that's all that matters to us.

Tah-dah! It's a boy!
And, in case you just can't get enough, here's the video of the ultrasound. There isn't any audio to it so you just have to watch the labels that the sonographer put in. You also might want to start in at about 1:05 over the part where she just writes in my vital stats.
Congrats! The Hansen's have always been good at producing boys (maybe we'll have one someday too)! We're excited to spend time with you guys over Christmas!
As far as Eric's intuition, you must realize he has a 50/50 chance of being right each time, and those are pretty good odds. Otherwise stated, a coin could be as intuitive as him in this matter. :) I'll admit he did better than me at guessing the right gender, though.

YAY! Now Sam and little brother can get into loads of little boy mischief together.
