First off, Rene’ who was lucky number #74 and has a lovely blog, is my lucky scraps /blocks winner. All I can say Rene’ is good luck. Second, I found out I’m having a…. BOY!! This will be our second little boy. We knew it was a boy before the ultrasound tech even mentioned it when we saw him form his little hand into a gun…..yep…totally boy.
Luckily I have a good stash of my favorite discontinued boy fabrics by American Jane. I want to make a quilt that somewhat matches the quilt I made for Ben. That way if they share a room they’ll match, and heaven forbid they don’t match {insert husband eye roll here}.

Congrats on the boy! I sometimes call that a high five to my patients (I'm a self-employed US tech). Also, on many occasions, the boy bambinos are trying to pick their nose or scratch (something). It's just too obvious sometimes, ya know. xo, suzy

Congratulations!!
Jandi
Congrats!!!

My little boy 'mooned' us to let us know he was a boy- it looked like someone who xeroxed his butt. Congrats!
CJ
Congratulations!! Too funny on his gun. :D
Andi
Congratulations!!!
Dotty Jane
Congratulations! I about spit coffee on the computer with the gun comment, though!
craftnosis
as mentioned by others Congratulations! If this little one's quilt is half as nice as Ben's - it will certainly be a beautiful quilt!

Nothing in the world as sweet at a little boy. As I told my son and his wife when they found out the second one was a boy, maybe the next one will be a girl!! It worked that way for me.
Linda
Aw. Two little guys. You are gonna have so much FUN! Congratulations, Allison!!
Sarah Star
Congratulations on your new little guy!
Rene'
Congratulations on your wonderful news!!!! Boys are so much fun!!! I have two boys (now 21 and 17) and a daughter (10). Love the fabric for the boy quilt.
THANK YOU for the scraps/blocks fabric. I was so excited when I checked my email this morning (still have laptop issues - got my new one yesterday and have been transferring files...STILL). I hope to do them justice.
Enjoy your weekend, and again THANKS.

Congratulations... I have two boys, too! I am sure I would be broke buying pink fabrics to sew skirts if I had a girl...boys are so easy jeans or khakis and solid shirt. Soon enough you will find yourself immersed in the world of legos, trains and star wars!
Libby
WOO HOO! Your son will love having a brother!! Congrats!

Congratulations! How perfect! Your new little baby will be born with a best friend just waiting for him! Among my other kids, I have two boys close together in age, and I love it. They fight, they wrestle, they race, and they worship each other. It's too fun.

Congrats!

I add my congrats! My son-in-law comes from a family with three boys right in a row, close together, they love it! It will be so fun...I love my two boys too, and always wished they could have been closer together.
Hey after looking at Ben's quilt I have a suggestion for you. Have you been to Bonnie Hunters site quiltville.com...I am sure you have...Anyway you might want to consider her crayon box quilt.
We did that one for our last grandson, it is way cute and goes together speedy fast!

congratulations. i surely thought our third was a boy--a little buddy for our big boy, but she was a girl. The big sister was super happy and big brother is quite protective. Have fun with your little buddies.

Congratulations! I always love hearing baby news. Such happy thoughts. I love the ultrasound picture with him playing cowboys or cops! That should go in a cowboy scrapped frame. I look forward to seeing the new quilt.

Congrats!! You're the second person who announced they're having a boy today lol I adore those American Jane fabrics... I have some stashed away for my future babies since most of their stuff is quite gender neutral :)

Congrats. We never found out till he was here, but knew we were having a boy.
I've been collecting boy fabric since and finally making Roan a quilt.
p.s. I moved my blog from Metrosupial Designs to http://www.sewkatiedid.wordpress.com

Congrats, congrats! We're having our ultrasound today but I'm resisting the temptation to find out what it is! I feel boy, and well my 3 year old son feels the same way, but we'll see. I love being a boy mom! And good for you for matching the quilts, a girl after my own heart.
