3 girls and a boy!

It's a girl on the way, so Mike is going to be overrun by girls! Well, we think it's a girl. The ultrasound lady said she was "pretty sure" when I asked her to tell me how sure she was. I guess they know what they are doing, but there is still a chance that she may be wrong I suppose. The news doesn't surprise me as I could always see Mike as a father to only girls. I can picture him at a dance recital more easily than a hockey game. I can definitely picture the same for me.

Even though the suspense is gone a bit, I am really interested to see how similar this one will look to when Paige was a newborn. And it will be fun to see how different they are growing up.

So we are excited, and assuming the lady was correct, I am happy that Paige will have a sister as an adult. And I think Paige will make a great big sister. Paige had predicted it was a girl on the way, so when the lady told us just that I said to Paige, "you were right, she said it was a girl!" and she said, "it's not a girl, it's a boy". Just part of her recent argumentative nature. She got really into talking about the new baby last night though. We were telling her all about the things she could help with when the baby arrived, and she is very set on helping the baby to have a bath. She is apparently going to wash her hair and brush it and help her stand up to get scrubbed down. Oh, and she is going to buy the baby milk from the grocery store. ?? We talked about how she could feed the baby in the high chair, and she wanted to clarify that it was "paige's highchair, right?"

I am really excited to get to go through Paige's old clothes and pick out the 0-3 month stuff and see what is good. I'm afraid a lot of it will be poo-stained, but I'm sure there is some stuff to reuse. And some of those little summer dresses and tiny tank tops that Paige barely wore will be perfect for when the summer comes.

So, in a couple of years when we get the dog we will have to make sure to get a boy. I was looking at our fish last night, and of the 6 ones that we can see (3 of them hide in the rocks) 5 are dull coloured and 1 is bright and bigger...I think we have 5 girls and 1 boy. Ha!
