pink

For the last few months I’ve been joking that if this baby is a girl, I’m going all out with the pink. I’m not the girliest of girls, but I LOVE pink, and there sure hasn’t been much of it around this house over the past 11 years. A friend asked if I’d like back some of the blue clothing I lent her and I said “Blue? No way. From now on, it’s PINK ALL THE WAY!”

I’m sure that one day this little girl (omg I just said “little girl”!!!!) is going to loathe and despise pink, but for now, I plan on reveling in it.

In fact, why wait?

Having a little girl is like becoming an AKA (pink and green black sorority)–pink all the way!

I love that head band…hehe
My five year olds first word was pink
(really) and she has been an all pink girl for 5 years. She has recently declared that her new favorite color is blue…maybe she had pink overload..she said blue with flowers

One of our neighbor’s husband swore that if their fourth baby was a girl he would paint their house pink. Lo and Behold they had a baby girl and two weeks later their house was pink to honor the promise. It’s the cutest darned house in the neighborhood and everyone loves the story behind it.

Congratulations. We heart pink at the Schell house and are so glad you will have your own pink fest soon. I’m glad to know she’s pink and healthy! Let the countdown begin!!!

Megan, I enjoyed your article online (”Thanks to AJ, Having Lots of Kids is Hip”) and clicked through several links to find your blog.

Thanks for the great article. And congrats on the baby girl news! How fun for your entire family.

Hooray!! We are just thrilled for you. Grandma’s been asking almost everyday. I just called her to tell her the good news and she said to tell you that she’s very happy for you.

She’s all styled up already!I remember going through that after having had 2 boys. You know she’ll be the best dressed little girl!

So happy for you!

Awww…SO happy for you woman! She looks swell already, but how about some pink converse and other tomboyish paraphernalia, just for good measure? :)
