The last post before our world changes forever...

Hello virtual world, this here is the very last post before our world changes forever. In less than 48 hours, we should know the gender of our first child. To some, this may not be an extraordinary event, but to me, this is life-changing. Will I be a soccer mom, or a ballet mom? Will I be painting the nursery pink or blue? Will I buy outfits with lace and hearts, or trucks and bears? Tuesday is a very special day, and after aproximetly 11 am, David and I will be able to call our child by it's name. I am so excited if you can't tell. There are so many things I can not wait to do to prepare for baby's arrival. Most of these things require me to know the gender. Some parents choose to be surprised, but I am totally amazed how they are patient enough to wait. I would NEVER be able to wait 9 months without knowing. My nerves would be totally shot. I would feel so unprepared and my life would be chaotic. In order to avoid this, I need to know the gender. Yes, we have picked out names (well, atleast the first names with a few optional middle names).

I am praying every second that this baby isn't shy and shows mommy and daddy all his or her parts. If this baby new how anal its mother is, it won't let me wait any longer. It was so funny last night when David and I were playing with our new fetal monitor. You can hear little kicks because they sound like faint thumps. When David asked if it was a boy, we got nothing...a girl, nothing...Then, we asked if it didn't know what it was either, it kicked. Haha. Hilarious.

I can not wait to tell everyone if we are having a boy or girl. I am making this my last post before Tuesday so that I can keep myself occupied tomorrow waiting without having to think about it. VOTES PLEASE!!! Boy or girl???

We shall see :)
