The Weary World Rejoices

 


I hope that for you, this Christmas has been an opportunity to pause, if only for a moment, and take a deep breath, after a year of not being able to breathe.  We're not at the end of this tunnel, but at least we can be more confident that there will be an end, eventually.

Merry Christmas,

It's a...

 


...girl!

We're so excited to be welcoming a new baby girl this April.

Well, most of us are excited.

Peanut is not excited, which he will state forlornly if you ask him.  It's okay for the baby to be a girl- like, she has his permission to exist- but he doesn't have to be thrilled about it.

I think he's softening a little, though.  He loves to talk to her and kiss her goodnight, and now calls her by her name instead of just Baby or Little Bean.  And he still gets excited talking about the duties of a big brother and how much she's going to love him.  Just don't ask him point blank how he feels about the concept of a sister.

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty pumped.  I know a mom is not supposed to care either way, but baby girl clothes are just so much more fun... We finally had a slow weekend on our hands, so I cranked out a few sewing projects, whipping up some simple little dresses.  And since Bean will have a girl cousin born probably the same week, I took the opportunity to make what will probably be only the first of many matching outfit sets for the two of them!  (I'll share a look at the outfits on Instagram once my sister has had a chance to unwrap hers!)

Alright, be honest- which is more fun, baby boys or baby girls?

Much love,

The Geeks
