Rachel: a What?
UT: a girl. Female.
R: Are you sure?
UT: Pretty sure!
R: Okay, how sure do you mean? Are you sure? Did you really mean "boy" when you said "girl?" Are you saying girl and then we're going to have a boy anyway? Babies are boys.
UT: nope, I mean girl! Some babies are girls.
R: So it's a girl? A real girl?
UT: GIRL. You are having a girl!
R: (giggling with the prospect of another female in the house) It's a she??? I can't believe it! Are you sure???. . .
and on, and on. . .
It's a GIRL!!!
Every time the doctor called the baby a "she" after that I think I giggled. It sounded so weird! I'm having a GIRL!!! Oh. . . the sewing projects ahead! I think I may have just created a new category in our budgeting needs!!! Hair ribbons, smocked dresses, darling mary janes. . .
The boys are THRILLED! They've been asking and in Aidan's words "Whining" for a baby sister since they found out I was expecting. I am so excited we got to surprise them tonight at FHE with their little sister! Woah, that still sounds funny! Here she is. . .
