IT'S A.....

SPOILER ALERT....CAUTION....SPOILER ALERT....CAUTION

Some family members have stated that they do not want to know the gender of our baby. While it will be virtually impossible to make it through the next several months without finding out somehow, be forewarned...this blog is about the GENDER...scroll down......

GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, this SuperDad will have 3 little 'daddy's girls'. Well, Marissa is not so little these days. Her 'other dad' is over 6 feet tall. Soon she will be looking down at me going,

"Are you talkin' to me? Are you talkin' to ME?"

Anyway, Sophia was very happy with this news because she really wanted a "baby thithter." (not making fun...just extremely cute the way she says this)

During the sonogram, the baby even seemed to turn and 'look' at us. This was extremely cool, if not a little creepy. I half-expected that little alien-looking face to say, "Phone home...phone home!"

She also seemed to kind of wave at us...just like Sophia did when we had HER sonogram.

It was almost as if she was saying, "I know you're looking at me...what is this? Some kind of zoo? I don't even have any clothes on!"

So everyone is asking, "Are you disappointed?" Would I have liked for there to be a stem on the old apple? Am I worried about the family name?

Maybe, on some level, a little part of me wanted to raise a little boy. The more I play with Sophia, though, I realize that a little piece of me will always live on...whether the last name the same or not.

I'm going to have three little 'daddy's girls'...and I couldn't be happier.

Now it's time to decide on a NAME. I'm thinking maybe, Gertrude.

Hey Chris, Eileen Here. I absolutely commend you on your dad blog. My husband and I have four (4) girls. Kinda like the movie Yours, Mine & Ours. I came w/ one, he came w/ two and our joint venture makes four. Enjoy the younger years and hold on for the teen years. All a blessing.

I enjoy your Monday Minute it is always very informative and fun.
