We were discussing whether our new baby was going to be a girl or a boy. Olivia has waffled a little bit about whether or not she wants a sister or brother, but mostly lands on "Corbin needs a brother." So yesterday, she gets all teary and says, "I want to be the baby girl. I don't want to have a girl baby because then that will be the baby girl and I want to be it!" We all make sympathetic sounds and stuff, and then Eliana says, "Well, I want a girl!" And so then we're discussing how many people want boys and how many want girls. We determined that Olivia wants a boy, Eliana wants a girl, Mommy and Daddy don't care, but it's extremely difficult to figure out what Corbin wants. If you ask him straight out, he says girl. But if you ask him if he wants a girl like Avery or a boy like Jack, he says, "Yike Dack!" So Eliana decides he doesn't count 'cause he wants both. So she and Olivia are tied. And I said, "But I still think you're outnumbered ... more people want boys than girls." And so she demands to know who ... Aunti Jenn, Grandma Cooper, Grandma Wages, Grandpa Wages, Aunti Krystal ... so she huffs a little bit and says, "They are off the chart! They don't get to pick. Just US!"

Do they have a clue that they don't get to pick at all? I think the extended family consensus would be twins - one of each!
