Team Pink, Blue, or Green?


Yep! We are expecting sweet baby number 3! So...Not only will I be blogging about being a wife, SAHM, homeschooler, and full time college student...I'll be blogging about being pregnant as well!

With our first two children we found out through ultrasound their gender. We are debating going team green for this little one. I've been making a list of why we should and why we shouldn't find out. I am generally an impatient person, but I would really love the surprise element at the end of labor! So here are pros and cons that are on my list.

Picking out baby items
Pros: Everything is cute and prepared for the little bundle of joy and it makes it easy for people to buy gifts.
Cons: What is there is a surprise and the baby isn’t what the radiologist tech said it was at teh gender scan! That is a whole lot of returning things after having a baby!
Picking out a name
Pros: Getting to know baby in the womb with a name. It is so sweet to be able to connect with the baby before they are born and imagine the kinds of things you will do with him/her.
Cons: Not being able to decide on a name!! My husband and I have a HARD time agreeing on girl names. We already have a boy name, but we always argue over girl names.
Decorating a room
Pros: Being able to decorate the room in gender specific colors and decor is SO much fun!
Cons: Then again, there are so many styles these days that are gender neutral and with the addition of gender specific room accents would make any room sway boy or girl.
So, those are my top pros and cons. We have a bit of time to decide! What did you do when you were pregnant? Or what will you do when you become pregnant?
