It took us a long time to decide how we wanted to share the gender of #3 with the girls. We really wanted them to be involved. We finally decided to take them to the store and let them each pick out a different outfit. Reagan absolutely positively wanted a little brother and Abby was not going to be happy unless she got a little sister. The lines were drawn in the sand quite awhile ago and they've been fighting about it. Picture standing toe to toe and yelling in each others faces, "Boy!" "Girl!" and you have several months at our house.
So the night we found out after dinner we put the correct sleeper in a bag and let the girls open it. Watch the progression.
Poor Reagan was inconsolable for about 15-20 minutes. She screamed at us that we had too many girls in this house and how it wasn't fair. All the while Abby dance in circles around her and was happy to share the news with Grandma. It was the saddest yet funniest moment.
No worries as a few months have passed and Reagan has accepted that she will have another little sister and is excited to be the biggest big sister.
