Big Sister Lyla

We found out in March that we are expecting a baby. Our due date is Christmas Day. December is going to be busy with my birthday on the 14th, Christmas on the 25th, Tommy's birthday on the 31st, and the new baby's birthday. We announced it to our parents by dressing Lyla in this shirt that says "I'm Going To Be A Big Sister" and calling them on the webcam. My mom and Tommy's mom both saw the shirt immediately. Everyone is very excited including Lyla. She always talks about the baby in Mommy's tummy and how she is going to be a BIG Sister. She has a book and DVD about Dora becoming a big sister, which has really helped her to understand. We tried to get a good picture in the shirt, but when we take Lyla's picture, she still says "Cheese!" and scrunches up her face. We got a better one outside as she was running around. Also, we found out last week that WE ARE HAVING A GIRL! We are interested to see how sisters work, because Tommy and I both grew up with one of each in our families. I hope they will be the best of friends.
