Hi IG friends!!!

I saw this link awhile ago and joined to get extra info... started spending more time when the monkeys would leave me alone.

I have been with my husband since Jan 2007. We met online and we fell in love in only a few days. It was very hard to find a bald guy my age who likes Italian... It was a long wait but I found a bald headed, blue eyed, norweigin/italian, pain in the butt :bigsmile: We were not planning to have kids so soon, even I saw myself being with a guy for 5+ years before trying. But only 6mths after meeting we got pregnant and I also learned that I have pre-cancer cells in my cervics. We decided to continue with the pregnancy thinking we would never have anymore kids. After my second surprise pregnancy I did receive treatment and now have the all clear to have more kids.

I love having boys and as a child only wanted boys, change of heart recently. But my boys are my life and I have even marked the calendar for when they can join Boy Scouts, Soccer, Karate, and baseball for my lefty. It would be nice to have a little princess to set the boy straight.

Where in AZ? It is crazy to think of only wanting boys and now I am doing almost anything to get a girl. I think it is my neice who loves the dresses I make for her. Maybe it's my mother-in-law who was only blessed with one child, who was suppose to be a girl. Maybe it was finding my old baby items and dreaming of putting them on my girl. Maybe everything.

Hey, Mama! So glad to hear you're in good health now! I'll be swaying PINK w/you as well. It's so funny how I was such a tomboy growing up and swore off anything pink or girlie. I wore all my brother's hand-me-downs and all my friends were boys. FF 10 - 15 yrs and now I too have taken a 180 and am desparately searching for my girl. Sending you lots and lots of PINK DUST and hope we get our girls this summer!

Here in Flagstaff I am in a moms group and they do clothing swaps every month... As soon as I learned I was pregnant with ds2before I knew what it was. I started to collect girls clothing, all the other moms were done or were having boys. I only took the ones in like new condition, mostly sleepers 0-6mths, and a few dresses at that time. Over the last 18mths I have collected pj's, dresses, pants, and a few others things from sizes NB-6t (3t+ is mostly jumpers) but I have about 8 large boxes (12W X 24H X 30L inches) of girls clothing in my bedroom closet, for luck. It might be insane but I am praying that I can use them, if not then someone we be very lucky to have a ton of girly things :) Saving all the boys and girls clothing for my kids Godparents and my younger sister!

I do not like pink myself but there is a lot of pink that was just so cute I couldn't help but vision it on my little girl. I did grab everything that was blue and purple but are girl dresses. Packing the items away in the closet was very hard but I and wishing to start taking them out soon.

I'm in the East Valley. Yes, everyone who knows me knows I wanted to have boys, but I never really thought of having ONLY boys, I just knew I had to have a boy (I think it's growing up all girls and wanting a brother). But now with three DS I miss girly things, frilly dresses, and just having a sister for my sons!

I think it's a GREAT idea to keep those girl clothes handy. Pull them out and look at them often...Visualize your future girl(s!) in them. =]
