Okay, y'all...we are scheduled for our anatomy scan ultrasound on July 6th. If baby ninja cooperates we'll get to find out if it's a boy or a girl! Eric and I are both so excited and can't wait to start choosing a name.
Many have asked us if we would prefer a boy or girl. Truth be told, I am so torn and here is why:
Girl:
I am the oldest child in my family and a girl (duh). My mom is also the oldest and a girl, her mom and her grandma were also the oldest and a girl. Carrying on this generational tradition would be an honor. It would also be fun to have the first girl in our circle of friends.
Boy:
My brother David just had a baby boy and my brother Alex has a boy toddler. Most of our friends from church have a boy... or one of each. If we had a boy, he'd be in good company.
My gut:
I think my gut says boy but only because I call the baby "him" all the time. This isn't founded on any particular hunch, just by what naturally comes out of my mouth.
Eric's gut:
Eric thinks it's a girl because I'm the oldest and his sister is the oldest. His dad and my grandfather have both had dreams or visions that it's a girl, too.
What do you think? Post your thoughts!
I think it's a boy! But whatever it is, it's gonna be a gorgeous and happy baby!!
