Boy? Or Girl? We tell…
June 25th, 2008
UPDATE: I’ve unprotected the post so the world can see it.
Jenna and I had the big ultrasound appointment today, and now we have the results. Thanks to all that participated in our vote, it was a lot of fun for us! We actually had the polls going on in two different places. The first was here and the second was on a local Mamas forum that Jenna regularly reads and posts on.
Anyway, the ladies on the forums really threw the vote in one direction… towards the girl result. The total between the two was 65% for girl, and 35% for boy. See figure 1, the beautiful pie chart: ooooh, ahhhh!
So who was right? Drumroll please! Wait, not just yet… let’s do the “funny” item I referred to in my previous post. We had some funny commentary come along with the votes, and I wanted to share a few of them.
“I say a boy because you are carrying like me - and that’s what I think ours is. No other reason.”
- Erin J
(Erin and Gregg found out two days ago that they are having a girl… hmmm…)“Girl - Kevin and Colby are enough man for one house.”
- Kyle G.“The new child in Jenna’s womb is a boy.”
- Thomas S.“I have mathematically determined the sex of your child!! This was done through multiple tests of the theory of probability. The majority of the time the result was GIRL!!!”
- Clay S.
(Clay then proceeded to go into a long mathematical explanation. I’ll spare you.)
You guys are pretty funny. Lets reveal who got it right in the KevinAndJenna blog vote. These people voted correctly:
- Suzy J.
- Ashley S.
- Tiffany R.
- Shala S.
- Grandmom (Kevin’s mom)
- Chris H.
- Kyle G.
- Clay S.
- Granddad (Kevin’s dad)
- Rachel S.
- Doug S.
Can you tell I am dragging this out? Well for all you smarties that looked back at the quotes above and compared them to this list, I’m sure you figured out we’re having a Girl! Everything with her looks great and she was a very wiggly girl. She’s estimated to weigh about 11 ounces right now and the due date is now November 17th (as opposed to the 19th). We told Colby and Kennedy this evening, here’s the video:

And finally here are some pictures. As I said in the previous post, we were pretty disappointed that we didn’t get to do the video of the ultrasound this time. The technician did print out a lot of pictures, but most of them weren’t that interesting. Click on them to enlarge:

^ Screen measuring the hearbeat ^
^ And finally, the “proof” that we are having a girl. ^
Thanks again to everyone for playing, we had fun with this.

Wow. Amanda was waiting on her e-mail! I would have been faster, but I was listening to my mom tell a story on the phone and couldn’t focus. I like the suspense building. I’m happy that you’re having a girl! Congratulations again! Cute video too. Way to go shmev.

Grandad and I are truly happy for you two. We’re glad all is well with Jenna and the baby. I guess old wives’ tales should be changed to old wise tales. Love, Grandmom

I at least had it right that we were having the same sex! Give me some credit!!! Looking forward to Saturday - I’ll call you tomorrow.

Jenna, the only reason I guessed girl is because you were sure it was a boy!

I am so happy for ya’ll! I keep seeing adorable little girl clothes (but I don’t have baby girls anymore) so today when I saw something really cute I was able to buy it for your sweet little baby girl!
