Boy or Girl??? Your little surprise!

Dear Baby Love--
You're lucky your Mom likes surprises. I say this because we were surprised by you back in June when "the" test showed positive for a baby, and now you are surprising us again on the 28th, as noted in the previous letter. So, while, yes I love surprises and these are probably some of the best surprises, yet, I have to tell you, that I'm learning patience, too. Do you know how hard it is not to go to the store and just buy buy buy?? The baby stores, while over whelming to say the least, have some of the most adorable things and the only reason why I've held off is because I need to know if I am buying dinosaurs and blue, or bling and pink! So, we wait (your Dad is thanking you because his checking account isn't showing Babies R Us and Buy Buy Baby over and over yet) patiently, to buy buy buy. Now, on the 28th, GAME ON Baby Love, GAME ON!

Okay, let me be honest for a second. I have bought a couple of things, just a couple, I promise. See, your Dad is a firefighter, a very proud firefighter. We are all very proud of him. And, well, I have found some really cute firefighter stuff for you. I know we don't know if you're Tynleigh or Luke yet, but I would consider these couple of things perfect for you regardless. The one little outfit I bought has an adorable crocheted fire truck on the front of it. I figure I will just stick a red bow on your head if you are Tynleigh to make it girlie.  I also got a whimsical fire truck blanket from Pottery Barn that is totally presh (as your Auntie Meredith would say) for you to spend some tummy time on.

Now, on to the predictions:
  • Your Dad and I both think you are Tynleigh. No real reason to believe this, just parent intuition I suppose. Maybe because we have had the name Tynleigh picked out for years, and Luke took us a long time to decide on.
  • There is a 50/ 50 split with everyone else. Most of your aunts and uncles think you're a girl. G-ma and G-pa Kogler haven't really said, Gran Jan thinks your a boy and Pop is still in shock that you are even real.
  • The doctor told us on our first visit that you were a girl based on your heart rate of 168. This, by the way, was the first time we got to see you.
  • According to the Chinese calendar, you are a girl if you were conceived on May 31 and a boy if you were conceived in June.
Some think Tyn and some think Luke. Either way, your Dad and I just pray for you to be a healthy one. We will spend the same amount of money and spoil you the same regardless! We are all anxiously awaiting for you to surprise us!!

Until next time, my love, we love you!

Love,

Mom and Dad
