Yes, we broke. Well, actually, the baby decided for us. We spoke to the belly and told the baby that if he or she wanted us to know, that he or she should make it very, very obvious. The second the tech brought up the image at the ultrasound, the first thing she saw was very clear, very obvious little girl parts.
Our daughter is nothing if not determined, we've discovered.
In all honesty, we are happy to know. It doesn't matter to us what gender the child is, but it takes the pressure off me. I've always wanted a daughter. The mother/daughter relationships in my family are very strong and incredibly important. It has always been my dream to continue that with my own daughter. Kelly could care less, but really is just as delighted as I am to be able to put a name to the little love inside of me.
Now...a word of warning...we STILL do NOT want any of the obviously girly stuff. There are other girls being born on both sides of the family who have parents that love the girly stuff. Please, send your pink and ruffles to those people and not to us!!!!!! If you do send them to us, we'll be sending them on to those people anyway. We're not girly girls...we don't want to dress our infant as one.
With that said, should Bailey grow up to be a little femme princess, more power to her! We'll become versed in all things pink, frilly and girly!

Hey there! Must feel great to "come out of the closet" so to speak, dear friends. We can't wait to meet Baily come Cinco de Mayo and then a few weeks later introduce her to new little friend (AKA our baby!) Have a great day you three! Love, Mo and Su
P.S. That was a lovely tribute to your brother Rodney the other day Mikki. We are sure he's smiling down on you all!
