the older sibling reactions

sam & will have been quite interested in the new baby. sam started asking when his baby sister would be here before i even knew i was pregnant. he never wavered; he always thought we were having a girl. will's guesses were funny; if i ever asked him in private what we were having he would always say a girl. however, anytime he heard sam say a girl he would quickly fire back that it was a boy. he's a bit of an antagonizer. :) their reactions after seeing the ultrasound pictures...

sam... "i didn't know there was really a baby in your tummy; i thought you were just eating a lot of food!" thanks, sam, glad to clear that up. after looking at the pictures he said, "where's maggie's curly hair?"

will... he didn't say much; he just started carrying around his baby doll again when we got home. he did tell pete tonight that "i baby."

it will certainly change the dynamics of our family to add a 3rd child, but i am excited to feel like a full-fledged family. for crying out loud, we will have 3 kids now!!

sure sam knew before you did. I thought I had asked it a couple of times myself. I'm so very happy too. But Will he'll be okay he's the one that will be pulling her out of the bed and dragging her around like a doll. Still remember the 1st time Jeff did that with you he woke me up so proud he had gotten you out of the crib as he stood in front of me holding you by your neck. but your okay right? It will be for fun times I know she'll be just as sweet as her mother and as hard headed as her weema she'll be perfect I'm sure just what you dreamed love you can hardly wait to see her eyes......
