I wanted a girl the first time around, until the adoption matcher told me the wait for a girl. YIKES!!! So I said I was open to either gender under 1, though I was still secretly hoping baby number 1 would be a girl. I got a boy and I'm so glad I did. Boys rock!

The second time around I specificly requested a girl under 1. When my Sasha was sent to live with relatives, I'm not sure if I asked for my next fost/adopt placement to be a girl or not. Placement number 3 was also a girl.

Then I did an int'l adoption and although my homestudy said open to either gender AYAP, my agency knew I wanted a girl.

So I now have 2 girls and 1 boy and if I had more energy and time in the day and money, I would adopt another boy so my son could have another male in the house.

the agnecies we adopted our girls from would not allow us to pick the sex, we did open domestic adoption. I wanted girls and that is what we got!! When we adopted our son through fc we wanted only boys. When we do it again; we will not specify gender.
