Finally… a Daughter

Yesterday I discovered that my first child would be a daughter.

Interestingly this comes as no real surprise to my wife or I. We had been staying neutral about the gender–not caring one way or the other–but figuring it would be a girl.

The Mother-in-Law said so.

The internet Chinese gender thing said so.

And then the ultrasound technician said so.

And it was good.

And it IS good.

Gives us twice as much time to come up with a name for her. And an easier gender to pick a name for if you ask me. More freedom to modify the spelling and more freedom to go out on the fringes without missing the point.

I have started incorporating what she will look like in this search. I think that having a vision of her as a baby, a child, and then and adult can only aide in the creation of a name.

But as yet we have not even started putting names to paper. I suspect there is no rush an that there will be late entries into the game even after we have narrowed it down to a few.

Should be fun.
