The Best Saturday
Yesterday was a glorious spring day – the weather was in the fifties, which, after months of winter, feels like heaven. We did some really fun things and I’ll bore you with the details tomorrow, but I’ll tell you the highlight of the day right now.
On Tuesday morning, while brushing his teeth, Bart said, “I think we should find out the gender of the baby this weekend.”
And so, today, we drove to Rhode Island and found out that we’re having a . . .
I was fairly certain it was a girl going in (I really would have been shocked if they’d announced it was a boy), but I was amazed how exciting it was to really know one way or the other. It’s a girl!
Now to switch to using “her” instead of “it.”
YAY!!!! So many congratulations, again! So exciting, such happy news!
Congratulations! Very good planning on Merrick's and your part! No matter if Carole finds something fun, be it blue or pink, she can buy it!p
Hooray! Congrats, again! I think little girls are the best way to start a family!
I completely agree with the decision to find out. Way to go Bart (and Janssen for going along with it)! And hooray for girls.
A girl baby!
Congratulations! I think it's much nicer to know, and be able to think of the baby as "she".
Knowing for sure really does make a different, huh?! I'm so excited for you guys!
Hooray for a GIRL!!! Woo!
Yay! (I totally knew it was a girl!)
Now to start the "what should we name her?" obsession…
glad all is healthy!
Yea!! Very exciting news
Awesome! Congrats, I'm glad you found out for sure.
Yay! Congratulations!
Part of me think I'd like to have a boy first, but I definitely need at least one girl. So I'll probably be hoping for a girl during my first pregnancy, just to make sure I get one.
Yay! Congratulations! So excited for you! And for her!
Congratulations! How exciting to finally know! She's a very lucky girl to have you two as her parents.
Yay!! A girl for Kapri to play with! Congratulations! That is super exciting.
Finally! A suitable "younger woman" for Oliver. I'm so excited for you.
Yay! I love shopping for baby girls!!! 🙂
Yay congrats! Way more exciting be a 100% than to be 75% right?
Now the question is are you going to share your name choices with us??
Congratulations on your little girl! My husband and I recently found out that we're having a little boy in July and I feel sooooo much better about being able to call the baby "he" instead of "it."
Yes! I knew it. Glad you made the trip to RI and figured it out for sure.
Congratulations! That's so exciting. 🙂
Why Ro-Diland?! Pink is a great color!
Yay, congratulations! That will be so fun for you. 🙂
So excited!! Congratulations! 🙂
Hooray! I think a little package sent your way is in order….
Wahoo! How exciting!
wooohooo!! little girls are SO MUCH FUN!!!! Congrats!!
Wahooooo! Girls are the best…I bless you with a girl that isnt as much drama as Kinsey…*bless, bless*. You will just love it! I am so excited for you guys! Your mom is going to go crazy in the baby section being able to buy all the girl and boy clothes…watch out!
Congratulations! And.. Bart looks dashing in his pink onesie :)What a sweet way to share!
Fun!! I love that you casually "drove to Rhode Island." Gah, I miss New England!
Congratulations! Very exciting!
Oh, that is SO EXCITING!!!
How wonderful! Congratulations!
Hot diggity dog!
NieNie's first best friend.
I so excited for you two. I love girls. But of course, you know that already.
*grin* Congratulations, Janssen! She's going to be adorable and adorably well-read. I can just tell.
So wonderful!
This is wonderful. It would be wonderful if "it" was a boy. Both are fun. Why Rhode Island? Did I miss something?
Hooray for sunshine. Makes the blues disappear.
Congrats on your little girl!
Why did you have to go to Rhode Island to find out she was a she?
yay yay yay! you know how we feel about girls…
HOORAY! Don't know anything about girls but I will tell you one thing – the clothes choices are infinitely better! I can't wait to dress up a little lady someday! I'm so thrilled for you!!!
woohoo bradshaws! i am so excited for you 🙂
Yay! I have a girl…who just turned TWO. Can't believe it.
Girls kick ass, but I guess I'm biased being one myself. 🙂
So what I'm a month behind in my GR?
Big congrats on your sweet baby girl!
