Yesterday I discovered that my first child would be a daughter.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
The Mother-in-Law said so.<\/p>\n
The internet Chinese gender thing said so.<\/p>\n
And then the ultrasound technician said so.<\/p>\n
And it was good.<\/p>\n
And it IS good.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
Should be fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
