Random Thoughts

I hadn't seen my best friend in awhile....since our date to see "Sex in the City" to be exact. But she came over unexpectedly today and it was so good to just sit and talk. I don't have a huge posse of friends anymore, just a few amazingly important women that I talk with here and there. But I think these are the best friends a girl can ask for...you know, the friends you can just pick up a conversation with as if you chatted every day.

I have been getting emails, calls, and texts from my close girlfriends recently b/c of baby news. These bits of contacts and seeing D today just made me stop and think of how lucky I am.

BTW...my LA-based girls....there is a possibility that I am spending a week in LA next week. I'll confirm so we can all have dinner. We haven't gotten together since our Pasadena dinner 3 years ago!! (not counting the bridal shower, of course!)

Love you all!

That would be soooo cool!

So, Michael and I have decided not to find out the sex of the baby. We would like a surprise since surprises don't come that often in life when you're an adult. Mikey would like a baby brother while Jacob is convinced he's having a baby sister. My mom wants a boy. My mom-in-law wants a girl. So, pretty much down the line, either is wanted.

I am leaning towards a girl. I switched my mind for a while since boys are so cool....but we definitely need anther female in my house.

This weekend, we went to a BBQ and two of my friends enlightened us to the Chinese Birthing Chart. They said everyone they know has been successful in finding out the gender of their baby and the chart I found on-line claimed 99% accuracy. I looked today to check out if Mikey and Jacob's were accurate and THEY WERE!!!! What you do is look up the mother's age when the baby will be due along with the month the baby was conceived and the chart will say MALE or FEMALE. Should I tell you what we got?!?!? Or keep it a secret? ha ha
