Not Just Puppy Dog Tails Anymore!
December 11, 2008
It might be time to change the title of my blog. (But not the address, that would be too much trouble.) We are having a baby girl! I know there was roughly a 50/50 chance of this happening, but after two boys, it seemed like a long shot. We are so excited! When I told Christopher, he literally jumped up and down and couldn’t stop hugging me. I was picking the boys up from school, and he couldn’t want to run to Will’s classroom to tell him. Unfortunately, Will was waking up from his nap, and after telling him about 10 times that we are having a baby sister, Christopher still didn’t get the response he was looking for.
We plan to name her Sarah Katherine and call her Sarah Kate. It is kind of funny, since Christopher suggested the name Sarah back at the beginning of May (months before this pregnancy). He and Will will make wonderful big brothers to their baby sister. We can’t wait to meet her! In the meantime, here are some photos from the ultrasound:

This is a 4D image of Sarah Kate’s face, with her hand next to her right cheek. I have no idea what that weird blob is next to her left cheek. And, yes, I was warned by the ultrasound tech that they are supposed to look a little freaky at this stage.

This is our beautiful little girl’s profile and tummy!

Yes, I am showing you my daughter’s private parts. Please don’t tell her.

Congrats! Girls are way fun! And, just for the record, Becca is starting to get really interested in her puppies’ tails. They move and feel funny so she loves them!
