{dear son, please forgive mommy for posting this lovely shot of you}
BOY!!
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?
I can't. I thought it was a boy in the beginning but after the last appointment I had started thinking girl and even bought a pair of Pink Watermelon Converse that were too small for Kelsey (they were only 2CHF, honey). I'm so sad Tal wasn't at the appointment because it was really quite unbelievable to see. I almost wanted him to be there so I could have another witness. But I think the picture is witness enough. Now I have to/get to go shopping for a little boy! I'm a little nervous about the whole circumcision thing and how I'll make the transition from bows and bracelets to baseball caps and balls, but I'm sure I'll figure it out!
Those of you who guessed BOY in the poll were right! Before my last post about the baby, most of you said they thought it would be a boy. After, it became divided and then went in favor of a girl. Sorry to sway the votes but I was really convinced!
Here are a few family stats for you, so you realize how the odds were stacked:
- Between the 3 Price brothers, ONE out of 9 kids are boys. However, between Tally's 2 sisters who have a combined 8 kids, only ONE is a girl!
- So far, me and 4 of my cousins have had kids. Of these 9 grandkids, only 1 is a boy
- I come from a family of all girls
- So our baby boy will make 2/10 boys in both families! We're evening the odds...I hope this means Camie's next one is a girl :).
So, dear friends of mine with boys, I welcome any and all advice for what to do with a BOY!

Your post just popped up on my google reader. Kudos to your Swiss doctor for getting such a definitive shot of your little boy! I suppose that baby boy didn't want you buying him anymore girl clothes or talking about him as a "she" so he made sure to help the doctor out! So excited for you guys! I am sure that he is practicing for playing ball with his daddy as we speak!
YEAH!!! I'm so excited for you! Can't wait to meet him! Tell Tally hi for me and give Kelsey a kiss. MISS YOU!
If that is not a boy, then I don't know what it is. I have never seen such a clear shot before. Wow! Congratulations!!!
We were just talking girl names... YESTERDAY! Couldn't we have gotten the heads up before and talked about boy names instead? Congrats!!
Congrats! John is a great name. So is Spencer (my middle name). Then there is also Unagi. My favorite sushi.
How fun! You'll have to tell us what it's like since we will never know :) congrats!!
Oh yea a friend for James!!!!! Now he won't be the lone boy!! We are so excited for you guys. Boys are easier (I think) but that Kelsey is amazing and beautiful!!! I love her so much!!! And you guys too!!!
Jess and Tal, We are so excited for you.We're excited to get a boy cousin for James and anotaaher Great Grandson. We miss you so much. Lots of love Grandpa and Grandma Lang
No mistaking that image! Congrats! I didn't think I would know what to do with a boy after Georgia but in my experience, boys are so easy-going and chill in the emotion department that it has been a piece of cake. William is so much easier than Georgia ever was, I am still trying to figure her out and she is almost 3! So for your sake, I hope your boy is like mine, happy all the time and easy to please.
Wahoo! I can tell you, boys are fun. You'll pick up on the baseball caps.:)
That is quite a manly shot! :) How fun for you!!!
I LOVE boys! Cooper is really into the movie "Cars" which makes being a boy extra fun! You'll have to be on the hunt for cute boy clothes as there are always way more girl stuff out than for little guys...I am excited for you guys! Congrats!
Oh Jess! I was so excited to check your blog today to see if you found out the sex. I can't believe you're going to have a sweet, little BOY. This is going to be so much fun for you guys. We already know that you two make super cute babies.
I miss you so much and I am enjoying all the wonderful pictures of Kelsey. She is beautiful. Although, I would love to see some pictures of her gorgeous mother ;)
Congrats again, Jess.
Awesome, we're so excited for you guys. Little dudes are really fun and by the look of things he's not going to be shy!
jess! hooray! we are due with boys on the same day! holy cow! tal and wes must have planned this.
I knew it! Yay!!!
Felicidades por el niño! Qué bien! ya estáis empates! 2 chicos y dos chicas!!! estoy muy feliz por vosotros!!
congratulations!!!
kisses frm spain
Congratulations!!! So exciting!!! I love that we had a boy first! They are so much fun and just love their mommies :) You'll love it!
YAYYYYY!!! That is CLEARLY a little boy! Too bad Tally missed the ultrasound. Your family definitely needs a little guy running around. You will love a little boy!! They are so fun. I am not giving you ANY advice, because you know it all already. Just give him lots of snuggles, and he will turn out just perfect. Just like Kelsey! Congratulations!
Jess and Tally,
We are SO excited for you guys!! Obviously we are a titch biased, but boys are SOOO much fun!! And Jess, they LOVE their mommies. I am sure after having a girl, it feels so weird to think of having a boy. I feel the same way about having a girl, but you will do great with him. I don't know if their is a Children's Place over there, but in my opinion, they have some of the cutest boy clothes (besides Gap). Love you guys and we are thrilled for you!!!
That is shocking- especially since you Langs are girl crazy!That's awesome Bess, so exciting, and obviously I'm no expert on boys :).
congrats! boys are so much fun and they love their momma! yes, maybe the next will be a girl for cami and ME!lol
HURRAY!!! Boys are GREAT! I am so happy for you!
Congrats, and here we thought Austin was going to be the only hope for the Price last name. Also, I just love your dad's explanation of the ultrasound.
yay! congrats...boys are SO great! it's been awhile since i've blogged so i need to scroll down and get caught up on you guys!xoxo
YOu will have a handsome little guy.. so fun to have one of each!! We are happy for you!
