Pink or Blue?

From the beginning, Ryan has wanted to find out the sex of the baby while I prefer to wait and be surprised. This topic gets brought up often because when anyone finds out we are expecting, the first question we get asked..."Well, are you going to find out what the baby is?" So...in an effort to compromise...we agreed to find out the sex of this baby however the second baby will remain a surprise. I wanted to be sure to share this as the next time around, I don't want Ryan to conveniently 'forget' our agreement :) so now we will all be able to remind him!

Our next doctor's appointment is coming up a few weeks and we'll be 16 weeks along at that point, so as long as the baby cooperates, we should find out soon if it is a girl or a boy! Regardless of what this baby is, we'd still like to do as many things in neutral colors as possible as I'm guessing the wardrobe will end up reflecting either pink or blue.

It's funny to hear everyone's theories about carrying a girl versus a boy. Everything from food cravings, fetal heart rate, how your belly looks, severity of morning sickness, the Draino test, and the list goes on and on. Once we know, we'll have to compare this pregnancy to those old wives tales!

So, stay tuned...we'll hopefully be able to share more news in a few weeks.
