5th time around...

We are having a girl!


We would have been thrilled with another boy, but there is quite the excitement for baby girl #1 around here.  When we went in for the ultra sound all of the boys said they really wanted a baby sister, and they were a little shocked when we said, "it's a girl!"  Isaac especially has communicated just how happy he is to finally have a sister.  Peter called this one as a girl from the first time we heard the heartbeat.  He insists that the boys have all had a particular sound, but this one was different.  He has called them all correctly so far.  Fun times!

I'm looking forward to having a daughter, I'm not going to lie; it's intimidating on the one hand, but, on the other hand, isn't anything that is new to us intimidating?  I honestly don't care if she's "harder" than the boys, "adds more drama" to our lives, etc. etc.  I'm a female, and despite that apparent drawback, (according to some random people out there) I think I contribute an awful lot to the world around me.  I am confident that she will, too.  I can't wait to experience this new blessing come June!
