It's A......

Okay, so Neal and I went to the doctor yesterday so excited to find out what our 4th child will be. After nearly 5 months of Charles-Allen telling everyone, "My mommy's pregnant for a boy" we thought we would be able to share his excitement because he just knows his baby is a boy. As soon as the tech puts the picture up we both can tell exactly what it is and it's not a boy. It's a girl!!!! I'm so excited. I've always wanted a bunch of girls. I think because there were so few in my big family growing up. But I'm sad for Charles-Allen, when we told him I thought he was going to break out crying. It was pitiful. I know he will get use to the idea and eventually get excited, but for now he's a little bitter. Last night while we were eating dinner he said, "that's Emmy's baby, not my baby." Maybe it'll take a little longer for him to get use to the idea than I thought.

Amanda...Congratulations!! I am so happy for you and Emmy. Poor Charles-Allen. He will get use to it when he sees that beautiful little sister. I looked for you yesterday but I guess we missed each other. Love, Mona

I can't tell you how excited I am. I really didn't think we could keep up the trend, but I'm so glad Paige has a counterpart now. :) I can't wait to meet the little gal. She can't get here soon enough!

Congrats on the new little girl!

Congratulations on getting your girl! Hopefully Charles-Allen will get used to the idea of 'her' soon.

Congrats Amanda! Tell Charles-Allen to "hang in there!" I have FIVE brothers and I survived!

Seems like you and Kristen have playmates for everyone!
