(another) new kid on the block

about the new kid

the kid to be named later comes to us after much grief — real, heartbreaking, weeping-and-gnashing-of-teeth grief, as well as christ-what-a-hassle-aren’t-we-done-yet? kinda grief. she has three big sisters, two of whom are not living. we assume know she is a girl boy because we believe hope history is doomed likely to repeat itself saw his boy-parts on 4/14, just before 18 weeks.  only we’re being particular about that belief, placing the odds on one an entirely new history possibility – an exhausting but happy one — over another — a just plain shitty one.

new kid is due on september 13, 9 2008. (got ourselves a scheduled c-section at 39 weeks.) so far, so good.
