Not about a boy.



We were told on Wednesday that as predicted we are having a little baby with girl parts. I think I was still holding out for a boy but I am now very excited for another girl. We saw all of her parts. It is amazing that at 20 weeks you can see all four chambers of her heart and her brain and bones and bladder and toes and fingers. We saw a face on shot of her and it looks like she has giant lips. Who knows what she will look like in real life and we are certainly excited to find out. We can tell in this profile shot that she doesn't have the same profile as Henri. That is about it.


This is her little foot and toes. Actually it looks like her little foot and fifteen toes. I guess we'll see!
We have a few names we like for this little girl but nothing for sure. And for some reason they all seem to start with M. We like Mary, Matilda, Maggie, Millie, and Miriam. I would love to hear suggestions.

Bess - That is exciting! Girls are awesome!!! I figure the more girls we have the more chances we have that one of them will take care of us in our old age. I might start brainwashing our boys regarding this responsibility while they are young and malleable, muh ha ha ha!! =)

congrats! I was thinking Margaret!

Renee,
I like Margaret which could become Maggie.

Bev,
I think Millie might be short for Mildred. Definitely just Millie.

Congrats to you guys! That is so exciting. One of my favorite girl names right now goes along with those too- Molly.

Medea? Minnetonka? Or perhaps, LaFawnduh?

Seriously, though, I think Mabel is super cute. And you know I LOVE Matilda.

Great-grandma Boudro wanted us to name Leah "Maple." Let's change the subject. How about some Biblical offerings? Mahalath, Merab,Michal, Milcah, Mahonrimoriancumer--oh, he was Book of Mormon.

Congratulations! I really liked Margaret for Adelle and call her Meg (like Little Women :) But she just didn't look like a Margaret when she came out. When are you due? I like Millie and Matilda.
