I wasn't exaggerating about Addy's excitement about having a baby brother or sister. Being an only child myself, I have been very worried about having another child. Would Addy feel bad? Would she be happy or upset?
I can't ever remember wishing I had a brother or sister - being an only child was great. So, what the heck am I doing to my little girl?
Well, she is more excited then both of us combined - seriously. She has now posted this sign on our front door:
The purpose is to ensure that everyone knows we are having a baby! As you can tell she is definitely thinking that a girl would be perfect. We aren't sure if we are going to find out or not, we'll have to think about it some. Addy isn't opposed to a baby brother - but as she points out most of the boys at school are kind of mean, and girls are nicer. Love her tried and true logic. :)
