Mickey or Minnie?

Our friend Roy, from Burlington Menards, wondered this week: 

Is it too soon to tell if it is a Mickey or a Minnie?

I explained that we are going in for our ultrasound on Tuesday, January 6th and meet with the OB/GYN to go over results on Friday, January 9th.

If baby HeShe is cooperative, we MAY be able to tell what the sex is that week. However, we are still not sure if we want to know the sex or not. There seem to be all too many horror stories of people who were told that it was one sex and turned out to be the opposite. Perhaps it truly is best to remain rather gender neutral in our shopping and planning selections.

Last weekend, we started looking at cribs, as well as the lengthy list of items we'll need to purchase before baby comes. (YIKES! This is not going to be cheap!) 

I poked around online at bedding for a little while and found one that I thought was pretty cute for a gender neutral nursery. (So far, this one caught my eye, but we still have LOTS of places left to look.) 

We've got LOTS of time on our hands... afterall, we're only 42% of the way to the finish line!
