girl or boy

I think what I like best about being team green is the constant guesses from family, friends, strangers at the grocery store. Best part? They all have a 50% chance of being right! Not bad.
There are so many myths about whether you are carrying a girl or boy.
A girl steals your beauty, makes your whole body round, creates a 'mask' on your face, gives you terrible morning sickness, her heartbeat is faster than 140 beats per minute, you carry her high and crave sweets.
A boy is carried low and like a basketball, gives you a glow, doesn't give you morning sickness, doesn't change the appearance of your face, has a heartbeat slower than 140 beats per minute and makes you crave salty or protein.
I'm sure there are so many more...I can't even keep track of them. I don't really buy into all of that, I think every pregnancy is different, regardless of the gender. But, I know all these myths are a super fun way of trying to guess, so I think it's cute when people try to analyze my bump and guess what could be hiding in there.

I am loving all the surprise and suspense that is coming with this pregnancy. We aren't even telling anyone the list of names we have chosen. Yep, there's a small list. Just waiting to put a face with the name(s).


So, here it is, the big, ol' basketball bump that everyone is calling a boy. It will be such a shock if this baby comes and proves them all wrong. HAHA.
