The Oracle has spoken. We're having a girl!
Now some history. We have a friend Phil (seen below at my birfday dinner at Red Iguana) who has a 100% accuracy rate when it comes to determining gender. When everyone told our friends Ben and Steph they were having a girl, Phil was one of the only ones who said boy. And out came Jonah. Recently, most people were saying our friends Greg & Tara were having a boy (myself included) but out came Charlotte, and Phil had called girl. So when we were at dinner the other night, I asked Phil what he thought Pat was and after staring at me and pondering for what seemed like a long time, he declared it was a girl. So you heard it here first. He'll either continue his 100% accuracy or Pat will be his first error. I'm still thinking Pat is a Patrick so maybe Phil and I should wager something. And I'm seriously thinking of creating a poll on Facebook to see what our friends think we're having.
The Oracle is at the end of the table. Yes, he appears to be a normal human being but he is far from normal. He is almost super human and Christian and I think the world of him.
In other Pat news, Pat has not slept at all today. You think I'm exaggerating? No! Constant movement. CONSTANT!!! And not "oh, that's such a cool feeling" movement. It's been more "Oh Pat, please stop it. That is far too creepy" movement. More of the feeling like Pat's trying to escape from Alcatraz and the only way out is through my navel. My friend told me today that there will come a time when Pat is on the outside and I will miss Pat being on the inside, so I'm trying to enjoy the creepiness of Pat's activity.
Wednesday is my glucose test. For all of you women who have been pregnant, you know the one. For anyone reading this who hasn't found themselves knocked up, this is a test they do around 28 weeks to see if you have gestational diabetes and are going to poop out a 19 lb Indonesian baby. The test involves consuming 50 grams (not milligrams...GRAMS) of glucose in the form of a fruity beverage. And you have to drink it in 5 minutes or less. In all honesty it doesn't sound that bad to me but every single person has warned me the drink is nasty and the feeling you have after you drink it is surreal. Ears ringing, etc. So we'll see. I can't wait to see what all that sugar does to Pat.
