Confessions of a Six Figure Professional Blogger

It’s a Boy

October 7, 2009 | Personal

Many of my Twitter followers probably saw already. My wife and I went in for an ultrasound to determine the gender of our second child. And yes….

I’m going to have a son.

My wife will be putting a scan of the ultrasound on her blog, and I’m not going to steal her thunder on that one.

I’m excited. I was actually 100% fine either way. Had no preferences. For a father, there is something special about “daddy’s little girl”. Yet, there is also something that a father and son share that is unique. Either way, I’m good.

It is exciting to have one of each, however. Best (and worse) of both worlds. It is the full spectrum of child ups and downs. It will, no doubt, be an adventure.

As my brother said:

Most couples want one of each – you guys are very lucky in the kid department. So easy, so quick, and good results.

He also said…

It’s a Risley, must have been easy to tell.

Hey, that’s just how we roll. ;)

  • Very cool... congratulations. We have a girl and 2 boys and nothing can be greater than family. Just to let you know... two kids are a lot harder to deal with than having just one... but after two, it gets progressively easier. :)
