What's your guess?

So we have an ultrasound scheduled for two weeks from now and I have been going through all the "old wives tales" to see what they predict the baby to be.  So, here is what we have found!

Week 16

#1. Chinese Gender Chart: According to the Chinese, we are having a boy!
#2. Carrying high? or carrying low? In all honesty, I have no idea... haha What do you think?  Low=boy High=girl

Week 18

#3. Moodiness? Well, I was definitely more moody in the first trimester but it has gone down recently.  However, this may be more of a question for Stewart than me ;) I will say girl to be safe
#4. Dreams about the sex of the baby: They say that if you dream about a boy, you will have a girl. And if you dream about a girl, you will have a boy.  I don't know if you remember or read it, but I had that dream that I had twin girls.. so it looks like it's predicting boy again!
#5. Clumsy or graceful?  Well, I am for sure more clumsy. Which means boy
#6. Morning sickness: Definitely a girl. 
#7: Mayan calendar: Boy!
#8. Baby's heart rate: Well, the first time it was above 150, pointing to a girl, but this last time it was between 137 and 140, pointing to a boy. This one just might a split,
#9. Craving sweet or salty? Salty for sure, so boy!
#10.  Feet colder or warmer/same? Same, so girly girl!
#11. Skin dry or soft? Well, my skin is always dry... so I will say dry so boy
#12. Rounder or wider? I think rounder.. boy
#13. What side do I sleep on? Well, I prefer my back actually (which I have been told probably isn't the best) and right side usually gives me heart burn.  So... left? haha I preferred left before I was pregnant anyway.  I will go with left and say boy, though.  


So... what do you think?? Most people have predicted boy but my mom is rooting for a red headed girl.  I personally have no clue! Stewart is convinced it's a boy.  I guess we will see in just a couple weeks! 



Baptism!

Last weekend we got to go to the baptism of one of our nieces, Kaci. It was the first baptism either of us have been to of a niece or nephew. It was a fun and spiritual baptism.  Afterward, we got to spend time at Lori's house to eat delicious food, spend time with family, playing some crochet, and later go swimming at someone's sweet house!

Pregnancy Dreams

Pregnancy has brought on some weird dreams....  Here are a few

So, I just gave birth to twin girls and went to my grandparent's house.  I left the girls upstairs with people and a couple days later I realized that I FORGOT I HAD BABIES.  I went upstairs and my grandma was super upset, the babies didn't have clothes on and their was poop EVERYWHERE.  I woke up feeling the biggest guilt that I forgot I had given birth, to twins.

I was told by someone that a guy was coming to torture me by electrocuting me and there was not way I could escape.  When the guy came I yelled at him and said, "If you hurt me, you hurt the baby!"  He then said that instead, I just needed to do 52 volleyball attack line slides in the living room.  I finally got it out of him who sent him to do this to me.  He said it was my mom.  I then approached my mom and asked her why she would ever do that.  She said she wanted her art back.  I asked her what art and that I would give her back whatever she wanted; she didn't have to torture me! Then she said, "You have already started your stash,"  while pointing to a hair ball hanging from the bathroom ceiling.

Stewart and I were walking on Green Avenue in Manson, at the turn to go down towards Lindsea's and Janet's.  So, we were walking and we found a small rattlesnake so we decided to take it with us.  Stewart had it on his arm then he had to run ahead a bit for something so he gave it to me, but I had to hide it in my sweatshirt.  So, I let it crawl up my sleeve.  It was hanging out on my back when we realized how stupid of an idea it was to have a rattlesnake in my sweatshirt.  Stewart then helped me get it out and it was flung under some apple trees.  Then this homeless man comes and starts trying to pick it and one of my cousins goes to talk to the homeless man and is totally all about him.  Stewart and I start walking away, then we turned around and saw a bunch of cops and firefighters pointed guns, bombs, and lasers at the snake.  And there was this super old man is holding this huge laser gun, trips, and accidentally blows up the area where the snake was.
