So you want to know?

Are you sure you want to know?





Sure?





OK, well I'm going to tell, so if you don't want to know, look away!





Someone told me if you have two same sex children, you have a 75% chance of the third being the same sex.




Once, many years ago, before kids, someone did that ring thing on me. You know, you do it over the wrist and it tells you what you WILL have. It came up with 6 boys and I made them stop. This is baby number 7 for us.





I was as SICK as SICK can be with the boys. I threw up every day until 36 weeks with Liam, and until 22 weeks with Ethan. I've only been sick a few times with this bub.





I had a boys name in mind, but couldn't think of a girls name.





My 'feeling' was boy #3... but I'm usually always wrong with these things.





So, I really had no clue.




But (have I stretched this out long enough yet?)




It's





a







(look away if you don't want to know!)














GIRL!


I'm not sure I know what to do with girls though, and I definatly need lessons in pink. (I don't like pink, but I'm sure it will grow on me).

Hi Katie,

Your Blog stalker is back for a quick visit....woohoo...so darn excited for you and Brett!

OOOH I remember how you use to love doing "orange" layouts with ribbon and your little tags.....and the Katie made papers and tiles....remember those days.....well I can see you doing this again with your little girl....not necessarily in PINK!

We so need to have a catch up for coffee and lunch at Knox maybe with the others from days gone by.....LOL!

Hi Katie

I've been having a break from reading blogs lately and spending so much time on the net.

I am thrilled to read your latest news and am sooooo happy and excited for you all with the news of a new baby coming into your household.

Take care of yourself and hopefully the rest of the pregnancy will be stress free and fun.

Keeping all my fingers and toes crossed for you and your baby. Much love from Susan (smiles1965) xxxooo
