I looks as if we are going to find out the gender this time around, despite the fact that I really hate the idea of it. What I do like, is the thought of being able to go through all the boy stuff we have and knowing if we either need it, or if we can pass it on. We kept just about everything planning for #2, but I am looking forward to gaining some closet space back if possible! We will likely go in for the sonogram the week after Thanksgiving, but we'll have the tech write the gender on a card, and place it in an envelope and seal it for us to open on Christmas morning. At least that way there will be a little suspense and excitement involved in it!
I really really loved not knowing the first time around. It felt so old-school, and there is nothing better than getting to announce "It's a Boy!" or "It's a girl!". Somehow, "He/She's here" just doesn't carry quite the same amount of excitement for me.
I have really neglected writing about this pregnancy, and I could blame it on being a second child, or being really really busy with work. But really, I am just finally starting to accept it. Not that it wasn't wanted by anymeans, just that it is finally staring to sink in that it is real... that nothing is wrong, and that there will be a baby here in 4 short months. Also, with Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, and Tanks Birthday, plus 7 friends birthdays between now and the end of January, April feel a very long way off.
I know the time will pass suddenly, but I can't help feeling at the moment like I have all the time in the world!
3 Say what, say what?:
cutest belly ever! you could still keep it a secret from the rest of the world...so you still get that joy of announcing! i wouldnt be able to keep a secret that big...but maybe you could pull it off! i did both and i see positive and negative to both, but i do have to say...the one good thing about knowing is that you have much more vivid dreams and pictures of this child...you feel a little closer since you know...maybe that is just me romanticizing...there is that AND the fact that i can start making stuff ahead of time for the little one! (that is selfish) but regardless - april will be here in a flash and i can not wait to meet this little baby...boy or girl...so exciting!!!!!
