We're Having a . . .

When we see babies we have such Joy,
The brothers promise they will never Annoy,
Will we need clothes or even a Toy,
Because we will be having a

GIRL!
Can you believe it? We're still in shock and so excited. (Isn't she cute sucking her thumb? Just like her brothers.)
The boys are excited too, mostly. Elliott cried and said he wanted a brother. I explained that he already had 2 brothers. But he said he wanted another one. I said maybe another time. When Daddy asked if they were excited to have a sister, Donovan shouts "YES" and Elliott says "I'm excited to have a brother after my new sister" We'll see, no guarantees. :) What a new adventure this will be!

I'm dying! I'm so excited for you! Also, I cannot believe you have 4 thumb-suckers . . . I'm sure your babies have thumbs before their heart starts beating!

Whit, our joke telling my sisters was that her name would be Zoey since they have Zoe and Zowie. I'm sure they were just rolling their eyes. Her name will be Avery Carlina.
