Our Family is Growing!

      If you haven't heard yet, I am pregnant! I am officially 21 weeks today, and I am due June 7.  I realized only a couple weeks ago that this baby's due date is Devin and my wedding anniversary... six years in June... and three kids! Wowzers!
     So that is the big news. But tomorrow is the big day, because we find out if our sweet baby in my belly is a boy or a girl! Bridger keeps asking me about the baby in my tummy, and he really wants to know if he is getting a brother or a sister!
       Tomorrow I will go in for my sonogram appointment and come out knowing!
       At the beginning of my pregnancy I was pretty darn sure that this baby is definitely a girl! Devin agreed, actually he was even more sure than me... (he's specially in tune).  I was so convinced even, that I thought when I went in for the ultrasound and if they told me it was a boy, I'd probably have them check again.  But I'm not so sure now.
      See my reasons for thinking this baby is a girl is this: I was sick. That's all.
      With Myra I was sick. With Bridger I wasn't sick a bit. But now I'm second guessing wondering if sickness is really gender related... or maybe I just get more sick with each pregnancy?
      I still don't have anything real to complain about with my pregnancy, except that I am pregnant. I did get sick, but most women get more sick and stay sick longer than me, so I am grateful that my sick duration was brief. I get tired and, I'll admit, a bit ornery some days, but that is just part of being pregnant. Actually, for the most part, I'm feeling great.
      We thought about waiting, letting this baby come our a surprise, but I really can't do that. I have to know! I think its my personality. I have to be prepared, have the correct gender clothes washed and ready, and start picking names.
      Tomorrow... 10 AM! I will let you know!  In the mean time... Anyone want to venture a guess??
