It’s a Girl!

By Mandi • April 14, 2009

An older ultrasound from when I was pregnant with Monkey Doodle. Look at her tiny little fists!

This morning we went for our standard mid-pregnancy ultrasound. Although the tech waited until the very end for the “money shot,” my husband and I both knew the instant that she got there that the baby was indeed a girl. We’ve seen those girl parts on an ultrasound four times now, after all!

We couldn’t be more excited, and we are counting the days until this little one joins our family. Our 4-year-old said, “God knew I wanted another sister!”

My grandmother is coming to visit in a few weeks, so we’ll pull out all the itty bitty baby clothes then and get them organized and ready for Sidney Hope’s arrival in late August or early September! I can’t wait!

Congrats, Mandi! I’m so happy things are still going well. Wow! Another girl! My little girl SO wants our baby-on-the-way to be a sister. But, I don’t think we’ll be finding out. I’m so torn!

I’m so happy for your family!

Aahhh!!! Four girls! How wonderful! My sister-in-law has four daughters, and I have three. We make beautiful girly “noise” whenever we go anywhere

I am so excited for you. Sidney Hope is a beautiful name. I will continue praying for a healthy pregnancy.

And, I know you already have three girls’ worth of baby clothes, but my latest little girl was born in September 2008, so I have lots of things for that season if you want them!
