I always REALLLLLLLY wanted a sister. I've never really gotten over it that I don't have one. I wanted to share clothes, rooms and whatnot. At first, Belle was insistent she wanted a sister but a day later came around:
Belle: "I'm okay with a brother."
Me: "That's good... What happened?"
Belle: "Even if it's a boy, I'll lock him in my room and say, 'Put on the high heels and the dress. And by the way, here's the lipstick.'"
LOL. Ahhhh...the joys of being an older sibling. The pure hell of a being a younger... until the teenage years when the older gets away with NOTHING and the younger gets away with GENOCIDE. Not that I have bitter older child syndrome or anything... *grits teeth, smiles sweetly*
So she's also insistent that if Penelope is a girl, she wants to share a room with her. As cute as I think this is, I think she'll outgrow this plan QUICK-LIKE. I asked her tonight if she'd still want to share if it were a boy, "No thanks." So at least that's covered.
We have three bedrooms upstairs at the new house: obviously one for us, Belle and Mr. or Miss Penelope. Am I mean to not let her share when she's asking to do this?
Much love!
Ann
P.S. The name's not really Penelope. As cute as I think it is, it's just a nickname Belle made up. :) I think it's cute, so....it has stuck!

PS: I am Kimlookalike above- I just decided to use a differnt login. :-) Sorry!
We actually liked the name Penelope if we had a girl when we were prego with Brandt but I didn't want people to call her Penny beacuse I wasn't hot on that. Have you come up with names?
