Yup, you read the title right. Conor and I have something really silly and stupid to disagree over and it is… the gender of our first child! Perhaps some of the family hasn’t heard my recent change of mind (which isn’t that recent – a few months old, but then when we consider time lines maybe it still is recent?)… Ready? I want to have a GIRL first and Conor is still true to our originally gender favouritism for a first child; he wants a BOY to precede the rest of our troops. So why is this a disagreement? I mean afterall, we should both grow-up and realize that ultimately it isn’t either of our decision. I guess we each are feeling a little selfish and want our own individual “mini-me.” Conor wants his little man so that he can have a petite buddy who equally admires cars and who he can wrestle with, etc. I want my little girlfriend (as I’ve already affectionately nick-named her) to dress up (like I’m talking we’ll be matching), bake with, read with and just be girly with! Really, truly neither of us are in the wrong but occasionally a little bit of heat’n'steam does arise from our future family conversations. Silly. Stupid. I know. But stubborn ol’ me is still determined to have my little girl be number one! Conor, love, I’m sure everyone would love to hear your side of the story.
DISCLAIMER: As far as Conor and I are aware, we are not, I repeat, ARE NOT pregnant as to our knowledge. Just had to throw that in there since we had Daria going a week ago purely by accident!
