Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice
We got to meet Melita Corinne Chunn for the first time today. Well, look at her rather than look at Baby Chunn or him. I can admit that we were so sure we were having a boy we kept using the pronouns he and him. What a shock to see girl parts in place of boy parts that we were positive existed. We are really excited without a spot of disappointment. I do think that raising a boy would be easier: no periods or bras or dating to worry about. But the idea of raising an independent woman makes me smile. Plus, I love, love, love the name Melita. Not only is it my middle name, but also my dad's little sister who passed away in 1969. And besides being slapped all over boxes of coffee filters, I don't know a single other Melita.

Awesome! Congratulations! That is a gorgeous name.
Yeah!!! Another little girlfriend for Isla and Violet :)
Having a daughter is absolutley brilliant. I never really thought about it before I had Isla (I was sure I wanted boys) but you will have a best friend and confidant for life.
As my mother in law says, you have a daughter for life, a son till he gets a wife :)
Congrats!!
Thanks ladies!
I was sure I wanted a boy too. But Reagan and I think it will be an even better adventure to raise a little Katee :)
And I am beyond excited that she already has to girlfriends waiting for her: Isla and Violet!
girlfriends/dictators...whatever.
