I was totally wrong as I thought it was a girl, but really happy at this point. We might try again for a girl, buy it will really depend on how easy the next baby is. If we never have a girl, I'm sure at some point I will have to deal with the emotions of that. Seeing little girl clothes is when it hits me the most. So cute! <abbr><em>Erin Hills last blog post..<a href="http://www.momstalknetwork.com/resources/moms-can-change-the-world-link-love/" rel="nofollow">Moms Can Change The World Link Love</a></abbr></em> Well we found out that our second is a boy.

I was content with my 3 boys... but just had that little part of my heart that really really wanted a girl... We weren't planning on having anymore.... but I had poured my heart out to God a few times, and he decided to bless us with Annika. I think it goes either way - God will bring you contentment with what you have, or perhaps He will bless you with a surprise one day... I know quite a few families who had 3 boys and the 4th was a girl! <abbr><em>Christines last blog post..<a href="http://www.dinewithoutwhine.com/blog/road-trip-day-4" rel="nofollow">Road Trip - Day 4</a></abbr></em> Nell,

He adores all 3 of them, but I know he misses having a little boy to do all the 'guy' stuff with. I don't know yet if we're done or not with having children, but it's certainly not going to happen any time soon. And to be realistic, probably never - but we're leaving options open, just in case. I know he would be really devastated if we had another girl though. I don't know that I really miss having a little boy or not - I don't really have anything to compare all these girls to. :) I think my husband feels very similarly about having all girls.

My husband and I have been talking about whether we want to have another baby, adopt, or be "done." In some ways, we both wonder what it would be like to have a boy. But then again...we'd be totally happy with all girls too. <abbr><em>Stephanies last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/metropolitanmama/~3/-Ysgwyf7o4o/" rel="nofollow">Tuesday Tours: What’s Happening on the Web</a></abbr></em> This a beautiful, heartfelt post.

I adore having boys, but every so often (like at the Disney store surrounded by princess dresses) I do wish (and still hope) that our next child might be a daughter because I know we will probably stop at 3 (since then we will fill up the car) but then I feel guilty because it will be OK if our next is another boy-I'd just love to buy a princess dress though :)You had such a lovely way to say it :) Hugs! <abbr><em>Miche@CoordinatedChaoss last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/coordinatedchaos/~3/5J6Py0jpawI/finally-here.html" rel="nofollow">Finally Here</a></abbr></em> Nell, I am totally with you.

I grew up with three brothers and just expected to have boys and got two girls instead. Life is full of surprises - I'm guessing some lucky girl will enter your life and you'll have your chance to spoil her rotten. Oh, Nell…what a sweet post.
