When I began this process I really wrestled with the same question. In the end I finally decided I didn't care whether it was a boy or a girl, so I told my agency either and had either written into the home study. I figured when you have a biological baby you don't get to choose the sex, so I wouldn't choose either.
I have to say that I really expected a referral of a baby boy since I didn't specify. I even bought several little boy outfits during my wait as I just couldn't resist. Well, guess what? I received a referral for a newborn girl in early June. I am ecstatic about my little girl, but I would have been just as ecstatic about a little boy. In fact, I have decided that I definitely want to adopt again and will specifically ask for a boy next time.
Good luck with your decision.
