It's a GIRL!

Believe it or not, we had a girl!!! Joslyn Sidney McDowell was born on Friday, February 27 at 11:06AM. She weighed 7 pounds 4 ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. Dad's first response was, "Oh My Goodness! It's a girl! Didn't I tell you it was a girl!" Mom's first response was tears, silence, tears, disbelief, tears, shock, and then some more tears! We are so excited to have a little girl. Mom and baby are doing great!

i still get teary eyed thinking about how excitting it is that you have a girl. I told my mom and she almost started to cry. She told me that that's the same way she felt when she had me, and she still feels that way. You are one lucky chic. She is so beautiful. i'm excitted to have a brand new niece. I'm here when you need me.
