Oh wait...
Nope...
There's nothing to announce....
Still no idea of gender.
"Why?" you ask??
We have been debating this topic over the last few days. Again, I pretty much remain on the fence while Dwayne wants to know (at least he keeps telling me he wants to know).
At one point I told him he could find out but I wanted to wait. Though its been a mildly discussed debate over the last few days, its certainly something I don't want to screw up. I mean, once we know we can't 'unknow' and if we decide later we want to know we have to cough up a bit more money to find out (recall, Dwayne thinks I'll cheat looking at the envelope even though I'm the one who's thinking I want to wait).
This time around with the 3D we tried to do a better job at preparing for it. We had a list of music and Dwayne spent the evening before downloading and editing the list I put together.
Once we arrived at the clinic we couldn't find the playlist that was put together - ah well, everyone's always in the mood for elevator music.
The debate from the last few days went right down to the wire. The last call was in Dwayne's court. Since I was on the fence I told Dwayne it was his decision.
I was shocked when he circled "No" regarding finding out the gender on the form.
So there we have it. Still no idea (and no idea why the topic - or lack of - has managed to take up so much space and time these last few days).
On another note, here are a few shots of the little guy/girl and Dwayne can't imagine this little face on a girl so he's convinced its a boy.
I can't get past the fact that the baby has some features that look nothing like either of us (nose, lips). So, I'm hoping the features in the 3D ultrasound are somewhat distorted. I know for a fact neither Dwayne nor I have lips that full or a nose that wide. Still, even it if isn't ours (which IS entirely possible) we're keeping it.
August 12 may indeed be an interesting day!!

For what its worth, I've done it both ways - with Luke we found out he was a boy, and with Evelyn we didn't know. I would say - if you are harbouring ANY secret wishes that it was one or the other - find out. With Luke I really truly thought he was a girl and could never imagine being the mom of a little boy. It truly did take a week for it to sink in that I was going to have a boy, and I'm glad I had the time to get used to it BEFORE he came along, so I could appreciate him completely when he arrived. With Evelyn, it was absolutely the most fun surprise in the whole world - to be able to ask "What is it??!?" and hear the response. You never get a surprise like that, ever - and I think the endorphins that come after pushing out a baby make it all feel SO much more exciting. So I can see it both ways, its totally a personal decision. I can't wait to hear how things go!!! :)
