FAQs

most popular questions so far:

1.)  do you know the gender?

we won't know until early october, but we intend to find out.  i (law) hate feeling unprepared.  judy and i were looking at baby outfits two weekends ago (tax free weekend!) but were unable to decide on anything b/c we didn't know the gender.  for whatever reason i've found outfits marked unisex still lean toward one gender.

2.)  do you want a boy or a girl?

judy wants a girl.  i want a boy.  i think judy wants a mini her.  actually that's not true, i just can't remember why she wants a girl right now.  i want a boy because although i'm not necessarily afraid of prison (ok i am), i think my protective nature and propensity to succumb to irrational behavior gives me a higher chance to end up in prison if we have a teenage girl rather than a boy.  also, i think baby boys are cuter faster (i like long hair on girls and it takes forever for hair to grow! besides a chubby baby boy is cuter than a chubby baby girl), and there's only so long where they'll stay cute enough and small enough for me to want to hold them.  or so i think anyway.  one other thing while on this topic:  we are only half-kidding in saying we fear having an ugly baby. 

3.)  have you started picking out names?

yes.  problem is, there isn't one single name we both agree on.  hopefully narrowing it down to boy/girl will make it easier.  one thing i really don't want at this time is to name a boy after me.  not with the same name anyway.
