Okay, so …. if you were thinking the Gerber baby was going to be a boy, like my dear husband did …. so sorry…. you are wrong.
 
IT IS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!
 
She is healthy; she has her mommy’s nose and curly toes! (Yes, Lisa, she has my nose!) We are very excited about this news! Daddy already wants to go and buy a shotgun to keep all the boys away!
 
Below are pictures of her cute little legs and feet and her little face! (Pictures of mommy’s belly will follow in the next couple of days. Promise!)

  1. Isn’t it amazing how clearly you can see the beautiful life inside you? Precious baby girl, with a nose like Kriek’s. She’s going to be absolutely adorable!!

  2. AHHH! I’m so excited! Beautiful photos, I can’t wait to see more as she grows.

    Jumbo you are the perfect guy to have a “daddy’s girl.” I’m sure you two will do a great job.

    We’re praying for your healthy pregnancy! May He be with you every step of the way, holding you in His loving and powerful hand.

  3. We are so HAPPY for the both of you. Just think Jumbo, another little Kriek, how wonderful. Little girl’s have a way of wrapping their dad around their little finger. God has truly blessed you both!!!!Love to you!!!!!

  4. Baie baie geluk, dit is wonderlik. Julle gaan so lekker pop speel en pappa koop maar die geweer om die manne weg te hou.

    Groete en liefde

    What a lucky little girl is to have parents like you!!!!

    Ek wonder of sy ‘n ‘D’ soos haar pa sal wees. hehe!

  8. mmm… those scans that show her beautiful intricate little frame reminds me of a scripture…

    Psalm 139:13-15 (The Message)
    Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out;
    You formed me in my mother’s womb.
    I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking!

    Body and soul, I am marvelously made!
    I worship in adoration—what a creation!
    You know me inside and out,
    you know every bone in my body;
    You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit,
    how I was sculpted from nothing into something.

    Like an open book, you watched me grow
    from conception to birth;
    all the stages of my life were spread out before you,
    The days of my life all prepared
    before I’d even lived one day.

  9. Baie geluk! Ek het nogal so ‘n gevoelente gehad en “gehoop” dis ‘n meisiekind!
