It's A....














We took a photography tour of Lake Tahoe, and stopped at a special spot to open the envelope. It was really a wonderful place, and, as you can tell, we were both pretty surprised! Mark asked if I wore pink on the hike on purpose, as if I knew it was a girl. Funny, huh? We were also paired on this hike (strangely) with a father and daughter. The signs were all there. :)


A baby girl it is! McBaby is a McGirl! We are thrilled! Thank you all for being patient. We were waiting for our families to get their packages in the mail with the photos. Once they all got them, we felt like we could tell all of you. We feel so blessed, and we are excited to prepare for the 2nd 1/2 of our pregnancy and beyond. Any of you fathers with daughters out there, feel free to shout out to my wonderful husband. With 2 brothers, he's gonna need all the advice he can get... but he'll be great! I picture her wrapped right around his programming fingers. :)


Thanks for letting us share the excitement with you... It was a lot of fun!

Shevawn... We had our first (also a girl) four weeks ago tomorrow. There is no amount of preparation that you or Mark can do that will make you feel "ready" for that big day. As long as you remember that you're learning about her, and not the other way around, you guys will be great!
