Here is a riddle for ya...

yep... its a girl

I wont say that I am disappointed, cause that isn't the right word. I guess I just had this image in my head of two little boys, best friends, playing ball, getting stitches and leaving mud tracks through the house. Constant wrestling and lots of blue stuff. I thought that I would be the princess of the house forever. I love my boys and I love that I am their only girl. But now I am forced to face the facts.. someone is moving in on my territory. someone that will be cuter than me, skinnier than me and someone to steal away daddy's affection. Maybe I was a little disappointed, maybe a little jealous or maybe just not prepared for the shocking news. But it is a girl and I am going to have to like that.

Now instead of a best friend, Kroten will have someone to protect, to care for and to love. Instead of blue I guess I will buy pink. I get to make onsies with ruffles on the butt and yes she will wear homemade headbands with BIG flowers on them. Jared is so excited to paint her little toe nails fire engine red and I can't wait to see the look in his eyes when he holds something so precious. I am going to the store first thing tomorrow and buying some little tiny leg warmers and some girly material. I guess I will have to make room and instead of enjoying my throne, I will have to share it. I will love her, I know I will, I already do, but I just need a second for it all to sink in. THINGS ARE REALLY ABOUT TO CHANGE!!!!

Congratulations! You know what, when we found out that Lydia was a girl, (and I had been SOOOO sure she was a boy, because I always saw myself with a family full of boys), I wasn't quite prepared for it either! But now nothing could be more perfect with our little girl! You will be the perfect mom to your little girl. And I think that is so neat that she gets to have a big brother.

My brother and I are 13 months apart and BEST friends. The sibilng closest to you doesn't have to be the same sex to get dirty in the mud or play house together :)

Congrats, I'm so happy for you!

Yay guys! I am excited for you. Kristen I felt the same way when we found out Kendal was going to be a girl. Except I was afraid she was going to be a rebel teenager like me,lol. But once I bought that first little pink onsie, it changed everything. Congrats to you guys. :)

When we had Brielle I, too, was so sure she was going to be a boy. I had imagined things like you. Two little boys to play with each other and get in trouble together and I was very suprised when they said girl. I had a couple ultrasounds with her and asked them to make sure it was still a girl. Even till the end I was worried they'd made a mistake and she'd come out a boy cause i was so sure. Now I find out our little princess/diva who can play dressup better than anyone can also play cars just as well. And the two definitely get in trouble together and play together too.

Watch out, I had visions of a house full of boys, however we are over the brim in pink. But I do love my girls and I love that P-man is my only boy he gets to be my little boy friend. Love you!! That is so super exciting.
