Sugar and Spice

...and everything, everything nice!  Baby Snodgrass is a GIRL.  A sweet, healthy, perfectly-sized, flexible baby girl.  Here she is, pictured knees to nose!
She kept her chin tucked and her arm to her forehead most of the time, and when the ultrasound tech jiggled her a bit for a profile view, she just flipped over, face down.  So, her face is still a mystery.  But, oh, how I can't wait to see it!  To hold my baby girl!

We are in awe of God's goodness.  He has given us our two wonderful boys, and so won us over with their love that a whole family of boys would have been just great.  But now, He has given us a GIRL.  And we are delighted!

From the very start, Little Guy has never wavered from his declaration that he has a little sister in Mommy's tummy.  And how right he is!

Bonnets and bloomers and dollies and pigtails, here we come!
