We want a boy. They are easier. They are cheaper. They are more fun. And there is SO much less drama. Period. That's the way it is. I don't care what you think. I am not going to argue with you because there is no convincing me otherwise.
So, why do I have this queasy unsettling feeling that we are having a girl?
We will not be finding out(until... you know, after the li'l bean is born).
And we have to remind Santa of that (please read previous posts) every time we go see him.
I am a little scared to even admit this. You see, my father told my mom both times she was pregnant that they were going to be boys. And my brother and I are living proof that he wasn't lying.
He said he couldn't have girls. Now I don't know if there is a physical ailment (or blessing) that can cause that, or if he was just so sure about it, or if he just REALLY wanted boys.
Either way, I am very wary of admitting to this nagging feeling, recently, that come September, when my cousin asks me if my brother is an Aunt or an Uncle (you gotta know the humor in my family) I am going to be saying Aunt!
Of course I will love,care for,support, cherish, etc either a boy or a girl. But I prefer a boy. Of course, right now if you ask my wife, she would prefer not to be pregnant. So as far as preferences go... we are 0 and 1. Let's hope our record improves come September!

I don't know if girls are MORE fun... just DIFFERENT fun.
I have a son and a daughter and I loved raising both of them. They are different(boy vs girl) but each in his/her own unique way. You and Denise are going to be SO AMAZED at how you feel about every aspect of this thing called parenthood come September. Trust me. You will be in 7th heaven with either !!!!! I promise.
Enjoy this journey. It brings many blessings and much love.

LOL! You sound like my husband! When I was pregnant with Deborah, he really preferred a boy. Pretty much the same reasons! Yet the moment she came out He wouldn't have changed her gender for the world! & to your other blog "He loves being her Hero!".
My thoughts: who said boys are easier! =0P Want some war stories from Noah? LOL!
Love both of you guys and just know you will so enjoy being a Daddy!
if you think boys are cheaper you obviously don't live in hockey country. hockey is expensive. However I have one of each, and my mothers intuition was wrong both times. glad you are waiting till the delivery to find out, it is the best words ever.
