Let me first start by saying that both Matt and myself do not place any truth to these ... because they are what they are ... TALES! They are just rumors that have passed from generation to generation with no scientific substance to them whatsoever. But, I figured I would list out some that everyone continuously tells me (OH, Kristy it's a {insert sex here} because {insert wives tale}). We will then (hopefully, if Baby Murphy cooperates) be able to find out if these hold any truth whatsoever (in 6 days!). Its all a 50/50 chance so it could easily swing either way. We have also found that when people tell us what sex they believe it to be ... if they know Matt better, its ultimately a boy ... if they know me better, they say girl. Hmm.. go figure, Matt's a manly man and I'm a girly girl ... so it only makes sense. OK here they are, only time will tell...

It's going to be boy. How do I know this?
Theory #9283: If one of the uncles attended UNC then the child has to wear that color. Since girls wear pink it can not be a girl.
If most of these "wives tales" were true, I should have had a girl! Haha! But the other thing is, I've heard a lot of these - but with the opposite sex. (Gain weight all over with girls, for example.) Just goes to show. But just got the news from you about what really IS growing in your belly. Yay! :) Congrats again to you guys. We are so incredibly happy for you!
