That's Code for: It's a Girl!! Again!!
Lil Bailey Marie is looking good! She was all curled up on one side of my uterus for most of the ultrasound, but she finally woke up and started playing toward the end. We got to see her waving and 'breathing' amniotic fluid and we also got a good look at those girl parts. Take my word for it; even I could tell it's a girl!
We are so excited to know who's been hiding in there! Even though we've been referring to Bailey as Audrey's brother for the past few months, I told John I'd be surprised if she were boy...and I was right! I know John is just as happy as I am, but the fact that he is truly outnumbered now is starting to hit home!
Audrey seems to be remaining skeptical of the whole situation. Boy or Girl, I don't think she was too keen on sharing her room or her parents. Emily has promised to teach Lil A all about sibling rivalry and how to steal attention from her parents. She couldn't have asked for a better tutor!
Speaking of Emily...she has openly admitted to not being in love with the name Bailey for a girl. (it reminds her of It's a Wonderful Life) So, John decided, as a compromise, Bailey's new nickname will be George...hence the title of this post.
So, there you have it, folks! I'm on my way to having alphabetically named offspring. Next up? Claire! (just to put John firmly in the minority!)

Whoooo! I love the name Bailey! I'm so happy for you and John. I'm sure Emily will do her job well also. That's what Aunties are for. Soon your house will really be Rockin and Rollin!
Matt and I love the name Bailey! Apparently Margot doesn't because she jumped on the backspace key just now and erased them name...hmmmm...but you shouldn't listen to her...she's just a cat ;-).
I am so happy for you guys :-D
PLEASE do NOT call her GEORGE!!! It's bad enough that you call the lovely young Jessica, Richard.
Where did the idea for Bailey Marie come from? Auntie Kristin says that on Grandpa's side there was a Marie Bailey.
Wow! I knew Marie was a family name from John's side, but I had no idea there was a Marie Bailey! I'll have to ask Kathryn about that--she's looked into a lot of the Schweighardt genealogy.
Gillian I talked to my mom and she told me that Marie Bailey was Grandpa's Dad's youngest sister Marie. She married someone with the last name of Bailey making her Marie Bailey. She was my mom's favorite aunt.
