Two Days Until the Big Reveal

Unless of course the Gypsy decides it doesn't want to let us know his/her gender and keeps its bathing suit parts covered.

One of the questions I am sure pregnant people get asked all the time is if they have a preference for either ... and I have been thinking about it a lot in the past couple of weeks.  I guess either has its pros and cons and different hard decisions to make.  So I compiled a short list for each:

Male 

Pros - 
BA will finally have some one to talk rugby to so I don't have to pretend to listen. 
Little boys 5-10 are the most fun and cutest things out there.  They are so inquisitive, excited about everything and SWEET.   
We have a boys name picked out and neither of us have had second thoughts about it. 
Our Chinese/Korean baby will be a girl, so having a boy will give us one of each!
Boys like their mommies better!

Cons -
They take longer to develop and are harder to potty train.
BA will def be more strict with a boy than a little girl :)
Making a decision on whether to circumcise or not - I think we are 90% sure we won't. 


Female 

Pros -
Little baby girls have to cutest cloths and stupid bows to torture them with. 
My Dad really wants a granddaughter. 
Its the only gender I have dreamt about this whole pregnancy ... so it almost feels more natural to me to think of the Gypsy as a girl. 
I think BA will be able to deal with a lesbian daughter better than a gay son. 


Cons -
Teenage girls are moody and annoying.  
With BA's genes, she will probably be a very tall Amazon girl.  Which can lead to self confidence issues when you can't get a date to the school dance. 
She will probably have hair like mine :(
Little girls love love love their daddies!


Okay so in a perfect world, I would chose to have a baby girl who magically morphed into a little boy around the age of 5.  But that is just me :)
