Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...

That's what our little GIRL is made of!!!

That's right, I had my ultrasound today and couldn't believe it when I saw firsthand that we are having a girl! The tech went straight to the crotch to see what we were expecting and the first thing I noticed was the absence of a bodypart I'd seen two times before with Mason and Logan. She said, "I think we have good news" and I started to cry! I then made her point out all the defining points that proved it was a girl and she printed pictures to prove it. I would have posted the pictures but our scanner doesn't communicate with this computer and I was too excited to wait to figure it out! I haven't even had a chance to talk to Eric yet, he's been busy with patients all afternoon, so unfortunately the world wide web will know before he does, but I know he will be thrilled.

I'll be taking suggestions for little girl names starting immediately and I'm hiding my credit cards for my own protection against shopping temptations! Today is a GREAT day!

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love little girls and you will be the best mom for a little girl. Good idea hiding the credit cards but you better let Eric do it because if you know where they are I promise that you will not be able to resist all the cute clothes out there. Congratulations!

As you left my house I was thinking I should have asked you if you wanted to go shopping. I won't tempt you. Congrats again!

I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see Baby Girl Barnhurst! Good idea for the credit cards, I knew when we had boy #3 at least our financial situation wouldn't be drastically affected. Congratulations!

that is exciting news! What are you going to do with a little girl? It's going to be different--but you'll love it! And yes, there are so many more cute girl clothes than boy clothes. I'm for warning you, do not go to Gymboree! Or, do...they have the cutest little girl things, and they really do have great deals, especially if you're buying off season.

YEAH!!!! OMG! You will love having a girl--minus the drama that comes with them, but I am so excited for you guys---and yes hide all of your cc's. I just spent close to $100 on her xmas dress--it'll be more than mine!! My mom always says that you know you are the mother of a girl when her clothes are more expensive than yours--congrats!!

The Green family is VERY excited for you and Eric and the boys. Oh, this will be so much fun! I wish I could go shopping for clothes with you...you are wonderful parents and this little girl is so very lucky to have you and Eric as mommy and daddy. We love you guys and are so ready for you to move back to the West. Hurry up, will ya?

YIPPEEEE!!!!! I am so excited for you!!!!! Okay, I already have a girl gift for you and I was going to be so disappointed if you didn't have a girl. I will send it to you soon. You asked for name suggestions so here are some of my favorites, Lillian (of course), Claire, Ella, Evelyn, Jane, Lucy, Chloe. Anyway, I'm sure my list of favorites will change again soon, it always does. I hope my list isn't too trendy. Well, I am sooooo excited for you. Send me your address so I can mail you your gift. Congratulations!!!!!!!!

You better find a Wonder Woman costume for her or something, with all of your little super heroes running around.:) They will be so cute with a sister!! I am so happy for you guys!!!!

Michelle & Steve said...

Congratulations! I cried when I found out with this one too...doesn't it just seem unreal that you really get to have one of the opposite sex than what you're used to? :)

Yea!!!!! Finally a girl!! You were going to have to keep trying if it was another boy. My aunt had 6 boys before she finally had a girl. Crazy! But now you will have a little girl to round out the family! That is so exciting! She will be gorgeous of course. Perfect in every way! Congrats!
