Halfway There!

Yes, you read that right.  This week marks the halfway point through our pregnancy!!!

We are so excited--getting more and more pumped as every day passes.  I honestly don't know how I'll make it through waiting 5 more months.. not that I have much say in the matter :)

THIS WEEK we find out if Baby Paul is a boy or girl!!!  WE ARE THRILLED!! Brian and I have both had SUPER stressful work weeks lately and this is such a shining light we are looking forward to :)

I am completely STUMPED as to what we are having... a few times people have asked me "what is your 'motherly instinct' telling you?  AND I HAVE NO IDEA!!  Sometimes I think GIRL.. because I'm totally breaking out like a junior high band kid, ADORE sugar and ice cream, and maybe.. just a bit of wishful thinking to go overboard on frilly dresses and cute clothes.  BUT.. I'm carrying STRAIGHT OUT.. looking at me from the front you don't even see I'm pregnant.. and according to the Chinese Baby Chart thing it'll be a boy.  PLUS, my mom changed her vote to a boy.. based on 'how I'm carrying'... that folklore business is serious stuff, folks :)  Plus.. I always wanted a big brother.. Brian would have a buddy to watch football and baseball... etc.

Either way we'll be ecstatic.  We just pray Baby is healthy and happy.

In the meantime, I've started pouring over "What to Expect In The First Year".. and I've had a few moments (including last night) I've actually had to put the book down and walk away because I got TOO EXCITED!!!  I have no patience.  I make Brian open his gifts days before holidays... I can't help but giving clues to people when I have a surprise for them.. I'M RIDICULOUS.  This is no different.

So there you have it!! 4 MORE DAYS and we get to see Baby Paul's sweet little face!!

HALFWAY THERE!
