Today is officially the start of the second trimester. So I figure it's okay to tell everyone through this blog. So if you've recently been on the page (not just looking at it through Google Reader) and noticed the pregnancy ticker along the top. This is why. :)
We won't be finding out the sex of the baby until the day s/he gets here. According to my mom, that makes me "no fun."
She keeps seeing adorable items in the store and wants to buy them, but they're gender-specific items. Sorry, but I don't want a deluge of pink items if we're having a girl. Or a deluge of trucks if we're having a boy.
And another way we're not going to be any fun: we won't tell anyone the name until the baby is born and the birth certificate is signed. People have opinions and I don't want them. It's harder for someone to give his/her negative opinion of the name if the kid already has it. No changing Mom and Dad's minds at that point.

Hooray for surprises! I can't wait to go shopping for your little boy or girl!
