My First Reactions

Ok, when I was pregnant with Caitlin we decided to not find out the gender of the baby. That was a lot of fun not knowing! With Emily we decided to find out since we had a lot of girl stuff so we were prepared for another girl but if we were having a boy we needed to get the girl stuff out and get some boy stuff in! It was fun knowing we were having a girl the second time because we got to give her a name that we could call her all the time and paint her room and all that fun stuff!

So when Cait was born and we asked what we'd had and the doctor said "It's a girl!" My first reaction was "A girl?!?" Sean is the first son of a first son for something like 7 generations so for us to have a girl was very exciting!! My first reaction when Emily was born was "Oh my gosh, she looks just like Caitlin!" Even though she had 3 weeks and almost 2 pounds on her, Emily and Cait look very similar in their first few days! I can't wait to see what Emily will look like in a month or so!

Here are some pictures of the both of them on the day they were born and a couple days after!
