Big belly news

So, we are back on the baby train and excited about another little Sutherland. Everyone is pressuring for a girl, though I don't know what I'm supposed to do about it now! Even Bridger has told me several times that he knows in his heart it's a girl. When we told him the news he immediately closed his eyes and said, "dear God and Jesus, I wish for a girl"--clearly we have some trinity doctrinal issues to work through, but that's why he's in preschool, right? We never find out what gender we're having, though we're mildly tempted this time. I guess we'll see how it plays out. The ultrasounds are looking good, but we can always use prayer, especially in light of previous complications. Oh, and the baby's due on my birthday (March 18th).Lilypie Expecting a baby Ticker

Wow! This is such great news! We are really excited for you and Ryan! Your narrative about Bridger made me laugh out loud!
By the way, thanks for your reply to my cloth diaper question. We've been in Bum Genius for one month now and so far no regrets. (although today one diaper did leak around the stitching at the leg gusset. but i'm not worried.)

Hey, no pressure, but 3/18 is a pretty great day for girls to be born...or rather, great girls to be born!!

Well, March 31st is a pretty good day for little boys too. Knowing my luck I'll be two weeks late anyway!

CONGRATULATIONS!

I had to laugh at your "trinitarian issues" comment about Bridger ... when I was his age, I used to pray "Dear God and Jesus," too. I don't know how I picked that up, but I chuckled to know that somebody else out there does it, too!
