Babies, babies, babies

So it's no secret that I have baby fever. I have for a while, and I probably will until the stick turns blue. I currently have 13 pregnant friends or acquaintances – it's no wonder I have baby on the brain. The first one is all set to drop on October 1 (come on, Mary! Pop that baby out!) and the last one on the list is due sometime in March. With any amount of luck (or grace or faith or whatever it takes), I'll be adding my name to that list by the time the last baby drops.

Thus far, my little list of women has been a very accurate predictor of gender. Rachel started the list with a boy and has since been followed exactly in order – boy, girl, boy, girl, boy, girl. The next friend on the list is Carey and according to my list, she's having a girl. We'll see if that's accurate, but so far, my little list was right about Ashley, Deena, and Amy – 3 for 3 ain't bad.

Assuming that I don't have to add any other friends to the list before I add myself, Doug and I should have a boy. Considering that we haven't even conceived yet, that's a long shot, but that's my prediction today.

** N.B. Daniel's actual conception date was 9/29/2007, the day of this post.**
