It's a...


So the waiting is finally over and on Christmas Eve, after Santa time, Erin and I opened the card we had set on the tree.  After over a month of anticipation and asking each other "Now what do you think it is" we could answer the question.

We opened the card to find the sonogram picture with the words "labia" and "female' and hand written inside the card was "I'm a GIRL!"  The technician (who did all of this for us) went the extra step of emphasis by dotting the "i" with a heart, she also put one at the bottom of the exclamation point.  

Erin thought of all the extra toys and clothes we would now be acquiring with a little princess joining the crew.  I was just happy to know and be able to start putting an identity to the bump on Erin's belly.

We will call her Grace, but are having trouble landing on a middle name.  

We are both very excited and Erin's mom has already hit us with a pile of Pink clothes, to which I commented "It has begun", which it has.

Next up is figuring where to put everyone and to start completely reconfiguring the house.  We will wait until after I am back from the Super Bowl in February to tackle that project.
