Pink or Blue?????

So, yep, we are all a little excited around here.  Baby is coming in about 10 days.  10!!  I remember when the little count down thingy on the side of my blog said something like...129 days, and now here we are close to delivery time. 

We want to know what ya'll think...I posted a little poll on your right, go ahead and make your prediction...it's all anonymous, but if you don't want to be anonymous then go ahead and leave a comment with your prediction...the choices are pretty simple...BOY or GIRL! :)

For me, I have been getting a boy vibe since about 14 weeks.  This pregnancy has felt different from my girls, but pretty similar to when I was carrying Rex.  I could be totally wrong though. 


So, we keep wondering if we will be buying a bunch of blue or pink soon.  With the other three babies, we had boy & girl names picked out and ready to go, but for some reason it has been a bit of a struggle this time around.  We do have one boy name we loved from when we didn't know if Lucy was going to be a he or she, so we are still hanging on to that.  Other than 2 other boy names and one girl name, we are still open for suggestions and thoughts......so, feel free to include that in your comments too. :)


Whatever it is, we will be thrilled and so happy to welcome this baby.  I always get such mixed feelings right about this time.  I am so very excited to finally meet my little belly mate, that has been with me for the past nine months, kicking, pinching, hiccuping, and letting me know it is there with its back flips.  On the other hand it is hard to believe that this pregnancy is coming to an end.  It really is such a special time and thankfully I have felt pretty good throughout most of it, which is a huge blessing.

I am more than excited to hold this little baby and to see the kids light up when they get to meet their new baby brother or sis too.  I guess more that anything, I am feeling very grateful for the chance I have to be a mom to another little child, because I know it is truly a blessing, and something I have looked forward to since I was a little gal.

So, with 10 days to go (if baby decides to stay that long...I have had some pretty good contractions lately) we will definitely be letting you know when the lil peanut makes its grand entrance.  Stay tuned!!

Good luck!!! I am counting down the days, too! We are all excited around here, but I am having a hard time convincing my kids of the name I have picked out (Benson). It took me months to get Bryson to give in and then he asked the kids what they thought. They sided with his name (Andrew), so now I have to convince them and I am having no luck with them (Nathan in particular). Sigh.

I say BOY...maybe it's just wishful thinking to give Rexbo a bro. I am not sure about a name, but maybe you could go with a 3-syllable name... Alivia is 4, Lucy, 2, Rex, 1 ... haha
I know I'm weird, but I love little things like that. Here are some popular British boy names:

you are such a sweet mommy that this little one is so lucky to be your child... I am thinking boy as well but we have 14 grandsons with only 4 granddaughters so that is where my brain leans... I didn't realize it was so soon. How hace the other babies come? early, late, on time..will your mom be able to come for a while? happy labor day and I love the way you describe the baby in your tummy
