Baby Shamrock (and a winner!)
Monday, February 27, 2012 at 4:45PM We got a peek at Baby Shamrock today. And we discovered right away that
She is beautiful, with a sweet turned up nose, long legs, and chubby cheeks. (She is also healthy, which is the most important thing.) And she was not shy at all. She wanted me to know immediately and unequivocally that she is of the girlie inclination.
This will bring our familial total to one boy, three girls, and two female horsedogs. My poor husband and son are so outnumbered. But think of what a great husband my boy will be someday -- he will know all the things girls like.
My sister also has one boy, three girls, and up until recently, two female doggins. (One passed away due to old age and illness not long ago.) I swear these things are not planned.
While I was posting this picture, I also drew the winner of contest. I eliminated all of you who guessed boy (sorry, peeps!), and randomly selected Anne.
Anne, I'll send over your $25 gift certificate!
I've been waiting for this day for months! Girlie babies are awesome! Hooray!

Congratulations!
Congratulations! I'm so glad she's healthy.
Congratulations!
And although I didn't win the GC, I just like that I guessed right. lol.
Hooray! Girls are the best! We just found out last week that we're having a girl baby and I've been looking at colorways on your site for a perfect coming home outfit.
Congratulaions Sharon and Anne! I was hoping for a girl just because there are so many girly knits to be made! Can't wait for Baby Shamrock to make her appearance!
I knew it! I said that if you picked the opposite of my feeling you'd be right... ;-)
KNEW it! :))) The fact that you named the company Three Irish Girls all but sealed your destiny. I know you were originally part of that equation, but that's not how the fates work ;)
See!? I told you babies are girls! Congrats! As one of five girls in my family (one boy) I can say there is NOTHING better in the world than lots of sisters!!
My husband grew up with four sisters and I think that is a big reason why he is a great husband. There were so many things I did not have to explain to him.
