A funny thing happens when you find yourself pregnant for the third (or more) time, and your other children are both boys*.
Suddenly the pressure is on. Everyone you know begins to send pink baby dust your way.
Random strangers on the street smile at you knowingly and say "Trying for a girl?"
Even though we've only recently announced our pregnancy, we've gotten everything from "PLEASE have a girl!!" to "You DO want a girl, right?!"
Well since I was asked, I will share my heart's desire.
What I want…… What I really really really want…..
Is to stop throwing up. Seriously.
If we have a boy, it's going to be awesome!!
If we have a girl, it's going to be awesome!!
As far as the sex of this baby goes, boy or girl, it doesn't matter to me. I am just praying for a strong, healthy, full-term baby.
The boys however, do not share my enthusiasm.
Alex would like a sister. He figures, he's got a brother, why not a sister to complete the set.
Spain would like a robot. Robots are awesome! They walk funny, and sometimes dance. oh, and the best part; THEY'RE ROBOTS!!!
*I have no doubt that this happens in families full of girls too.
