Sugar and Spice

The last grandparent has been reached and the news spread….Leina is getting a little sister!

Yes, the second ultrasound proved to be the ticket. I must admit I was relieved to hear she was a she. From what I’ve seen, baby brothers can be real pests to older sisters and I didn’t want to have to buy a whole new set of clothes and toys. Having another girl means all those cute outfits from Leina will get another use. Yipee!!

Kevin was equally excited but he harbored a bit of disappointment. I think he thought having a boy would be fun and new. I think he’s a daughter’s daddy through and through. I just can’t picture him with a boy. Of course, Leina has no idea what we are talking about right now. In a mere four months, she’ll have her very own little sister.

Wow. Four months. That isn’t very long. I’ve a room to decorate, a closet to fill, names to choose, and a whole house to get ready for another infant. Kevin is working like crazy every night in the garage custom building cute baby furniture I’ve seen at Pottery Barn Kids. Here’s hoping all the ducks are lined up in time!

A girl! A girl! A girl!
