It's A Baby- But Is It A Boy Or A Girl?

None of my kids ever
knew before the birth what
they were going to have-
be it boy or girl it was a surprise.
However,
this time my wonderful Mimi wanted to know.
who would join the ranks of this
sweet family.
Are these precious thumbsuckers going to have
brother or a sister?
The found out yesterday!
Are you ready?
Is it a boy?
Is it a girl?

Baby is due on March 17th-
St. Patricks Day!
So...St. Patrick is a boy, right?
Well,
St. Patrick might be a boy
but WE are having
A GIRL!!!


~Whooo Hoooo~
Now we pray for a healthy little baby girl,
 and a smooth pregnancy and birth
Thank You, Lord!
We just can't wait.....
but we will.....

And meanwhile we will be dreaming
about this!

That will make 
FIVE Grandgirls and SIX Grandboys
and ONE little Angel in Heaven
watching over them all.

Deb @ Frugal Little Bungalow said...

Congratulations! Love the pics...oh my look at the beautiful long eyelashes on those little sweeties :)

Linda said...

Congradulations!!!! Oh, a girl to join the boys... :-) Yes, a healthy baby is all we want.
Guess I am old fashioned and don't like to know the sex of the baby, my kids didn't know ahead of time, except for my daughter's last one, she had one of each and wanted to know what she should keep. Hubby's kids both found out ahead of time.
have fun getting the room together!!!

Melanie said...

That is such wonderful news! Congrats to all! Love the picture of that pink nursery!

How sweet!!
I have to add, I LOVE that you still mention you guys have a baby in Heaven as well.

You are blessed!!

Shirley said...

Good Morning Diana, It has been a few days since I checked in. I just have been very busy and the eyes are still healing. Congratulations on the baby girl to be. Oh! how brothers will look after little sister if they are anything like my two. They will check out who she dates and teach her how to defend herself when they get older. I can still see my oldest at about 4 carrying her down the hallway as I was trying to fix a bottle. I don't know to this day how he got her out of the crib. She was crying. Just love them all because they grow up so fast. Hugs and prayers from your Missouri Friend

Congrats all. Whoooo Hoooo!

I was holding my breath when you were going back and forth as what baby will be. I was saying to myself. Alright spit it out.

Our Pharmist lady is young and her first was twins.

Then she was pregnant again 18 months later. My hubby looked at her and said to her. No Lauren you not ?

She said another set of twins. Oh Ya! Now she has two boys and two girls.

Ribbons and bows, lace . Sugar,spice and sweet everything litle girls are made of.

Oh Diana,
I'm so happy for your daughter. I bet she's thrilled having a girl after having two boys. I never wanted to know the sex of my babies either. I just wanted healthy ones, and I was blessed with three. So happy for your daughter, and soon you will have a new little one to love.

Love,
