Since we already have one boy and one girl, there was no practical reason to find out the gender of this baby (we have lots of supplies already!). So we decided that we will be surprised this time, just for fun.
Only we were wrong!
There is just one practical reason remaining for finding out the gender: it would allow us to get away with picking only one complete baby name instead of two (one boy and one girl)!
Agreeing on a name presents some problems. We named our son Isaac - the only boy's name in the book that we both liked. Abigail was easier to agree on; we were thankful when the ultrasound revealed that she was a girl so that we didn't have to come up with another boy's name!
So even though I have five or six boys names I dearly love, I gave in last night and made a massive list of 100 boys names that I think I could learn to like, hoping that somehow we can agree on one of those.
Only we were wrong!

Pray for us. Our child's future depends on it.

It is hard to name a child. They will after all live with it for the rest of their life! I have a boy name I like and Dave wasn't so sure when I told him. He thought Ethan 2 would work just fine for a boy and we already have a girl name. Good luck!
Here is a list I gave my friend who was having a boy. She didn't choose any of them, although the name she chose was Isaac. I think you may have one of those!
