Coming this week...

is our next Ultrasound appointment. On Wednesday, we'll have our 20 week ultrasound - which, if the baby's cooperating - will tell us if it's a boy or a girl.
Since my entire side of the family has boys (my brother has 2, my sister has 1) - and my wife's side is entirely girls (by birth - brother has one, sister has one - there are two step kids, one boy and one girl) - either way, we're going to annoy half of our relatives!
Annoy is a strong term, true - but my father actually promised, at our wedding rehearsal, that if we had a girl, he'd clothe her until she was 18! And yes, we did have that on videotape!

Also coming up this week - our AFP test results. We've not heard much good about this test - apparantly a lot of false positives out there. The Alphafetaprotein test has indicators for certain types of birth defects, such as spina bifida, Down's syndrome, etc. Slightly nervous, but fingers crossed!

We'll be gleefully sharing the sex of our child on Thursday (as long as we find out on Wednesday!)

it's weird, but exactly half my ancestors are male, and half female.
