CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! Coach totally makes wallets and stuff, so Babalah Boy will just have to settle for a wallet instead of a handbag.. :)

Posted by: Kathryn | May 09, 2005 at 03:51 PM

Congratulations! How exciting to know that you are having a little boy. I'm very happy for you.

Posted by: JoLynn | May 09, 2005 at 03:51 PM

Longtime lurker outing herself to say YAY!!!!!! Mucho congratulations! ;-)

Posted by: dearheart | May 09, 2005 at 03:52 PM

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How fun! Squishy! Love it!

Posted by: Sarcastic Journalist | May 09, 2005 at 03:52 PM

Congrats again, Amy. Being a mom to boys is the best thing in the world.

Posted by: Martha | May 09, 2005 at 03:53 PM

Congrats and yay for little Mr Squishy!

Posted by: Princess | May 09, 2005 at 03:54 PM

wow, don't take any of your website visitors with you to Vegas. The majority are a bunch of BAAAD guessers. :)

Congrats, though.

Posted by: abbey | May 09, 2005 at 03:55 PM

It's about FREAKIN time!!! Congrats! This is so exciting! Now I can go home for the day!
Squishy is a great name! He'll never be teased on the playground!

Posted by: Angela | May 09, 2005 at 03:55 PM

Congratulations ....Mr Squishy.

Posted by: Zoots Mom | May 09, 2005 at 03:56 PM

Congratulations! Little Lord Squishy! :-)

Posted by: keepergirl | May 09, 2005 at 03:58 PM

Boys like bunnies too, right? Congrats!

Posted by: Nola | May 09, 2005 at 03:58 PM

Yay!! Squishy!! So deeply excited for you Amalah.

Posted by: maricar | May 09, 2005 at 03:58 PM

Congrats to you and Jason! Boys are...crazy.

Posted by: JuJuBee | May 09, 2005 at 03:59 PM

Hurrah!!! I love him already, even though I was VERY wrong. (like that's anything new...)

Are you going to post ultrasound pics? If there's anything a 15 year old boy will love, it's having pics of his little teeny baby wiener on the internet. (I'm evil.)

Posted by: lakeline | May 09, 2005 at 04:00 PM

I had a boy last, I think a boy first would be superior. They are little dynamos of energy and snot. But they worship you in a way the girls don't. You will always be his first sweetheart. Stop it you pervs, not in a creepy way.

Posted by: Lisa | May 09, 2005 at 04:01 PM

Yeah! Baby Boy Squishy! Congrats!

Posted by: Boozie | May 09, 2005 at 04:02 PM

I knew it! He will be the youngest Metrosexual in the DC area! Congrats!

Posted by: Kristie | May 09, 2005 at 04:06 PM

Boys love their mommies with a love so strong and fierce that it's second only to the love they have for their own penis. Mazel Tov, Amalah. Time to start dreaming about toads in your bed and Power Rangers in your purse.

Posted by: Dr. Johnny Fever | May 09, 2005 at 04:07 PM

Congratulations! Although I started with the girly baby, I have two boys, and they are all wonderful.

I shall begin to knit something in blue for Mr. Squishy.

Posted by: MamaKaren | May 09, 2005 at 04:13 PM

Hooray!!! three cheers for young mr. S.

Posted by: Pratt | May 09, 2005 at 04:18 PM

The boy will twirl your hair while you hold him. So sweet.

Posted by: misses | May 09, 2005 at 04:18 PM

De-lurking to say Congrats! Little boys are so cute and fun! Enjoy this time! Mine is just recently up and walking...So FUN!

Posted by: Laurie | May 09, 2005 at 04:18 PM

yay!!!!! :) that means all your dreams were right. every dream you had about the sex of your baby said it was a boy. how very cool. you should take your sex-predicting act on the road. ;)

congrats, amalah! :D

Posted by: Manda | May 09, 2005 at 04:19 PM

CONGRATS, AMY!

And little Squishala, too!

Posted by: Chris | May 09, 2005 at 04:20 PM

Congratulations Amy and Jason!

Posted by: Torynth | May 09, 2005 at 04:21 PM

SQUEEE!!! I have two boys and I'll tell you now, there's nothing quite like a baby boy. Oh, and "little dynamos of energy and snot"? Dear god, that is so accurate. Get used to checking pockets before clothes go into the wash and never be surprised at what you find.

Posted by: warcrygirl | May 09, 2005 at 04:23 PM

Congratulations! Ha! I told you so!

Posted by: Irina | May 09, 2005 at 04:24 PM

For a minute there, I thought you were going to tell us it's a hairy troll-looking thingy.

But a boybalah! That's awesome!

Posted by: Broad | May 09, 2005 at 04:33 PM

Do I get a prize?? I was the 1st post guessing BOY!!
I have a boy -- he is almost 5 years old. He is perfect.
Congratulations to you both!

Posted by: ktbug | May 09, 2005 at 04:36 PM

Yaaaay! Congratulations to you and the mister. Looking forward to the Squishy pics!

Posted by: Chris | May 09, 2005 at 04:41 PM

YAY BOY! I have a boy and boys are tops! And they look so darn cute in overalls and a onesie. You will love, love, love having a boy.

Is Jason so happy? I remember Big Daddy was sooo proud of himself for making a boy.

Posted by: kalisah | May 09, 2005 at 04:41 PM

It's probably better that it is a boy ... that way there is no competiton over cute shoes. Congratultions.

Posted by: Dabney | May 09, 2005 at 04:43 PM

BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY! BOY!

Yippe! Congratulations!!

Posted by: Dooneybug | May 09, 2005 at 05:04 PM

Aww, congrats! We were all so wrong!

Posted by: Heather | May 09, 2005 at 05:07 PM

Congratulations! Glad he wasn't shy.

Posted by: shokufeh | May 09, 2005 at 05:08 PM

Wahoooo!! Yay boy! And a mammal!

Posted by: skimmilk | May 09, 2005 at 05:14 PM

Yay for squishy! See! I knew he would be cute.

Posted by: halloweenlover | May 09, 2005 at 05:19 PM

I add my congrats to the pile. How many hits did you get today, I checked about 4 times today just to see the results.

Posted by: Kate | May 09, 2005 at 05:23 PM

now that i'm officially done 'lurking' i'm emerging from that deep, dark lurkhole to say CONGRATULATIONS. what a wonderful time in your life this must be. thanks so much for sharing it with us in such a humorous manner. i so look forward to your next post. thanks for the constant entertainment!!! weeeee!

Posted by: sherrell | May 09, 2005 at 05:25 PM

Congrats on your son! Wooo!

Posted by: sam | May 09, 2005 at 05:31 PM

congratulations!!!!

Posted by: bellabelly | May 09, 2005 at 05:37 PM

That is AWESOME (not the least of which, because, the first time he pees all over you and everything when you take his diaper off, you can screech "NO NO BAD SQUISHY!!!")!!!!

Happy for you, sweetheart. Boys are such fun. :)

Posted by: Mir | May 09, 2005 at 05:40 PM

Delurking to wish you congratulations!
Mr. Squishy is gonna have a wonderful life! I hear little kids love Aruba and restaurants! :)

Posted by: Baileyswedishfish | May 09, 2005 at 05:50 PM

Also coming out of lurker-ville to say CONGRATULATIONS !! You will never experience the adoration that little man is going to worship you with. Little boys just LUVVV their mommies. Congrats again and I can't wait to see pictures!

Jeannie Weannie

Posted by: Jeannie Weannie | May 09, 2005 at 05:57 PM

WOO HOO!

Congrats on the little bundle of boyness heading your way. I can personally attest to the fact that little boys are super sweet. You're going to have so much fun! :)

Posted by: callistawolf | May 09, 2005 at 06:09 PM

Yeay you. Little boys are so much fun! You learn about all sorts of things you'd never be interested in otherwise. Like trains, dump trucks, steamrollers and tractors. That little boy will adore you in a way you've never experienced.

Posted by: Lisa B | May 09, 2005 at 06:18 PM

ALL HAIL SQUISHY!

Posted by: Sarcomical | May 09, 2005 at 06:28 PM

Wow, i was right, well, i suppose i had a 50/50
chance (excluding the dolphins etc)

Posted by: monkey typist | May 09, 2005 at 06:55 PM

Boys are the best! Congrats!

Posted by: Amanda | May 09, 2005 at 06:57 PM

Oh my giddy god!! Congratulations!

Posted by: lady bug | May 09, 2005 at 07:14 PM

yyyyyyaaaaaaaayyyyyy!!!!
so exciting news!!!

Posted by: Erin | May 09, 2005 at 07:16 PM

"And I shall call him Squishy" ... LOL! Love the "Nemo" reference there (though it took me a bit to place it. Hello, little Squishy ...

Congratulations! So glad that your boy wasn't feeling modest so we could all know who is in there. And I have to agree ... little boys are downright LOVELY ... in a rowdy, loud, stick-and-rock loving sort of way. =)

Posted by: Rebekah | May 09, 2005 at 07:48 PM

There is nothing like a little boy. He will be your pride, your heart and your life! Cherish every moment - one day you will turn around and he will be taller than you! (not that you are short - well, you ARE short but it would not matter because he will still be...oh, never mind). CONGRATS!!

Posted by: kathy | May 09, 2005 at 08:00 PM

Squishy! Such a fitting nickname for a tiny person who will wear diapers!

Congrats on the terrific news... you two are going to be great parents. This kid's got it made. :) *HUG*

Posted by: Christine | May 09, 2005 at 08:07 PM

Congrats! Amalah...

Found your website last week and I am loving it.
Hope the boy turns out to be like his dady...Oh btw, you have a wonderful husband....God Bless!

Posted by: Jinan | May 09, 2005 at 08:34 PM

Clearly call up the Coach store and tell them you want everything blue on hold! Looking forward to pics!

Posted by: Real Girl | May 09, 2005 at 08:40 PM

Aw, congratulations!

Posted by: Sheryl | May 09, 2005 at 09:26 PM

congrats! a mini jason on the way :)

Posted by: tiffanie | May 09, 2005 at 09:37 PM

I'm just glad the doctors let you get the ultrasound now and not, like two days before you gave birth, as they originally seemed to have planned. :) Congratulations on Babalah Boy!

Posted by: dawn | May 09, 2005 at 09:46 PM

Can you still call him Babalah now? I thought the "alah" ending was geared to females? (At least, that's what my dear friend Jori implied when she "alah"ed my name... could I have read that wrong?)

Posted by: PinkStiletto | May 10, 2005 at 12:00 AM

Congratulations on your successful ultrasound!

I was rather hoping for a dolphin though. Dolphins have such catchy theme songs.

Posted by: megan | May 10, 2005 at 01:13 AM

*herkie*

ouch... that hurt... but still... i'm excited for you! :)
congrats!

Posted by: Jasara | May 10, 2005 at 01:24 AM

Congratulations! Now you will have two men in your life who will send you flowers in an impromptu manner.. And I think Squishy is a very noble and masculine name, good choice.

Posted by: Léonie | May 10, 2005 at 05:12 AM

Oh BOY!!!

Many congratulations Amy and Jason!

Posted by: Penny | May 10, 2005 at 08:19 AM

Congratulations!!! Have you picked out any names yet?

Posted by: PaintingChef | May 10, 2005 at 08:38 AM

I knew it, knew it, knew it! Congratulations on your baby boy!

You will love having a baby boy, boy's love their momma's in a special way. My 5 year old is very protective of me.

I can't wait to see Squishy. I'm sure he's SO very cute.

Posted by: Kristi | May 10, 2005 at 08:39 AM

Oh, congrats congrats congrats! You must be ready to pop with excitement. :) Now when you & Jason talk to your tummy, you can call him by name!

Posted by: kentucky_kitty | May 10, 2005 at 09:00 AM

boys are awesome. ENJOY!!

Posted by: ali | May 10, 2005 at 10:35 AM

Hooray for little Squishy! Congratulations and I look forward to the pictures!
