Polls Are Closed

Because the "official" party results results are in! By our oh-so-scientific method of testing every Old Wives Tale we could find, all at once, our conclusion is that BOY wins 9-6. For details, you would have to check with Andrea. **just to muddy the waters, though, this website says it's 67% in favor of girl, and this one is 60% for girl.**

I know at least one of them (which side I sleep on) has changed (though I can't remember which way) since the party, because of this: After more than two years of promising myself that I would get a new mattress, I finally did it. Goodbye 30+ year-old Sealy Posturepedic! You were good to us, but my back says it's time to move on. The picture doesn't actually match the bed, but it's the closest I could get. Ours is a 10-11" Eurotop (like a pillowtop, but with memoryfoam) just like the picture, but ours is made by a family-run company out of Houston so they don't have pictures on the web. Since the mattress is thicker, we got the "low profile" (half-height) foundation, and it comes out just the right height.

We've only had it for one night, so results are not entirely conclusive. Not conclusive for me, at least--Jonathan didn't snore a bit, last night, so we have some success.

I'm leaning towards boy, but what do I know, LOL! Excited to hear for sure!

A new mattress sounds nice! We're sleeping on one that's at least 15 years old and my back can definitely tell.

very nice. New anything is nice, and especially a mattress! That will be great to have in the months and years ahead! Congrats!

Doug would love a new mattress, unfortuantly for him, we'll have to wait another 26.5 years by your standards to get one...

And I'm also still saying boy, but you better not have that kid till I get there on the 22nd of Sept!
