What is with people's disbelief and unwillingness to accept that I don't have a preference of the baby's gender? I get asked all the time what I hope it is, and I reply that I don't care, that I just want it to be healthy, perfect, all ten fingers and toes, blah blah blahh.
This is almost always followed by the person being like
"......really?"
Um, yes really.
I mean you can write to Ripley's Believe It or Not if you have such a hard time with this and then go petition that I become an exhibit in their museum, but believe it or not, this is how I feel. I feel equally as excited thinking about Nick with his little mini-me boy as I do thinking about me with my little mini-me princess. The kid will be my bff either way. And I will teach it to love the Spice Girls with me either way.

You know you miss those crazy Brits. I sure do.
At least I am excited to find out the gender in 2 months. I honestly can't believe there are people out there who still live in the stone age and CHOOSE to not know the gender until birth. Fuck that. If you're one of these people and are offended, I don't really care. Congratulations, you made yourself wait out a surprise an extra 5 months for no real reason and put a burden on everyone who had to buy you baby shower gifts. Dumb.
So to reiterate, I don't care right now what naughty parts the sprout is growing. Really. I promise. (Just that whatever parts they are, are developing normally.... and there's only one set of parts.)
