The Boy / Girl Debate

Less then 24 hours we will know if Baby Hall is a Boy or a Girl. I can hardly stand it and can't wait to find out. (All of you parents out there that waited till birth, I admire your patience - because I have none left! ha!)

Pretty much majority of my friends and family think we are having a girl. And as you can tell by the blog poll - girl is in the lead!

Here are some reasons that I have heard on why we are having a boy and why we are having girl: (not exact words, but close enough)

WHY WE ARE HAVING A BOY:

-"You have 4 nephews - it makes sense that the odds are you will have a boy"

-"You just have to have a boy, who plays football and goes to BAMA games with Cory"


-"We were both hoping for boys and we both got girls- a girl would fit you (Anne) better, so you will prob. have a boy!"

- "Everyone else we know that is due in September is having a boy"


WHY WE ARE HAVING A GIRL:

- "You have 4 nephews, you have to give those grandparents a granddaughter"

-"Has a fast heartbeat (161)"

-"A girl fits you better"

-"You have bought way more girl stuff then boy stuff!"


-"Everyone else who is due in September is having a boy - someone has to have a girl!"
-"Your doctor guessed you were having a girl!"

These are just some of the reasons I could think of off the top of my head that we have heard.

Both Cory & I are so thrilled to be having a baby. We don't care about the gender - both ways we will be so excited and so thrilled to have a child who we can love on and take care of for the rest of our lives - a child we have prayed for. A child who will be healthy and strong and most importantly love the Lord.

**Picture credits - those adorable stuffed elephant rattles were in our Easter Basket. So cute and soft. A must for any new BAMA fan baby!
And the adorable outfits - the day after we told my parents that we were expecting, my mom ran out to a shop in Cahaba Heights and got these for him or her to wear for Christmas. (as most of yall know, I love children in smocked clothing!)
