I haven't told anyone but, I have a feeling that I'm having a boy....maybe it's because there are so many of us expecting boys! But, when I'm looking baby bedding, clothes, etc. I've been more drawn to all the boy stuff and usually I am 100% drawn to the girl stuff.

well, i consider getting to know the gender early as a small positive in the whole stick a huge needle in your stomach procedure!

I am excited about having a boy, but I wanted dd to have a sister close in age... I guess when this one is a year old, we'll have to try for the twins ;p (dh is rather content at staying at just these 2 but I figure i have a year + the rest of this pregnancy before I have to break in the idea of another!)

as far as credit card statements, i'm totally in charge of them at our house! DH never knows what's on there

I am sure once your DH holds this precious little one for the first time, he'll warm to the idea of more of them!

I'll have to post a picture of pup later... I wish I could do a little video. It really is funny... even though that is mean. He even hops down the stairs! Oh, and he's all dopped up when I get him from the hospital so it makes his eyes all droopy. Quite a sight.

Off to look at an investment house. Got to make some money for baby. Be back soon!

peach- what do you do w/ investment houses- do you try and fix them up some? Do you just hold onto them for a little bit? just wondering... And I hope your doggy has a quick recovery! poor thing!

Robin- my dd has a blue bedroom! And we have many balls for her to play with. Granted, she also LOVES to play babydoll, but I think you'll manage dd has exact rules for everyone when they play too-- mommy up, mommy sit here, mommy feed baby.... it's really quite funny. especially when she tries to play w/ granpa!

I think that dd got into dolls because of daycare actually-- around 12-18 months they love to start emulating those around them and she saw the women at daycare taking care of the babies and started doing that w/ her stuffed animals and baby dolls.... of course, we fully intend to get her a little golf set soon

Robin, don't be scared about having a girl!! Girls don't have to be involved in ballet! All of my close girlfriends played basketball, soccer and softball when we were growing up...one of my friends even played ice hockey in college. All my girlfriends are very sporty (how a couch potato like me ended up friends with these super sporty gals, I don't know! hahaha). If you have a daughter, she can be sporty!! When I told one of my childhood friends I was pregnant, she said she couldn't wait to take the little one moutain bikining, camping, etc. And I'm glad for that because if I have a little girl, I want her to see that women can be sporty and active too! If you have a little girl, she'll discover the girly things if she has girly friends.
