It's a question that I think almost every Mom-to-be gets asked..."will you find out the gender?". I do realize that this topic is a source of debate for many expecting couples, and everyone has their own opinion regarding the topic. For Rob and I, the answer was a very simple and resounding YES!
As I mentioned in an earlier post this week, we are planners. We plan ahead for everything. That is just the type of people we are. Oh, and in case you forgot, I plan weddings for a living, so "planning" is sort of in my blood :) Ok, that comment may have been a little snarky, but it's the truth. It is inevitable that some people will pass judgement on our wishes to find out the sex of Baby Schmitt before he/she makes their grand debut, but it is a personal choice that we have made together, and one that we are very happy with.
I won't go into all of the details on why we want to find out the baby's gender, because, let's face it, we all know the pro's and con's of choosing to find out vs. not choosing to find out, right? Simply put, we want to be able to decorate the nursery ahead of time and I don't want my kid to be dressed in all white, yellow, or green clothing for the first few months of his/her life ;)
We'll of course be sharing the gender with friends and family; however, there is one thing we are going to keep a secret until the baby is born...the name. We've made the choice to keep this a secret between just the two of us...not even our parents will know, so don't bother trying to get the name out of us because our lips are sealed :)
