Girl! We are so excited to announce that the next Kenley baby is a girl! Scott and I were super shocked when we went to the ultrasound this past week. From earlier ultrasounds the dr had told us that it was likely a boy, but he was wrong. This baby is definately a girl! :)
Everything looked great on the ultrasound. While it's so exciting to find out the gender, we knew that this would be a big day for our baby - they looked at her heart, kidney's, spine, limbs, and brain. They took measurements and then they took more measurements. Everything was right on track. And we had no reason to fear because we can rest on Psalms 139.
Psalms 139:13
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb."
Baby Kenley is on target to arrive December 24th! I wonder if they bring babies born on Christmas to their mamas in stockings from the hospital nursery? :) lol - it's going to be a wonderful Christmas at our house.
This is an extra sweet surprise for us, too. Many of you know that before Samuel we lost two babies to miscarriages. We know that the second baby we lost was a girl. I wondered if I only had sons if I might always think about that daughter and wonder what it might have been like to share that mother/daughter connection. I feel such peace from God...almost like this gift is just a little extra special. You know what I mean? God is good.

So sweet! I am very happy for you. Oh, and they DID bring my brothers (born 12/22 and 12/25) to my mom in stockings, and of course, she still has those precious things. Instead of the normal pink hat they normally knit for baby girls, all babies got a red hat near Christmas; Hazel and I were so excited to be included in that exception.
What wonderful news! Congratulations again to you and Scott! You are all in my prayers!
CONGRAT'S Jenny, I am so excited for you! I knew how much you initially wanted a girl. You will be a wonderful mother to this special daughter.
I am so excited for you. I wish I could call you, but my phone is broken and I don't have your number.
Oh, I am so excited. A girl! Yay!
oh my gosh, congrats!!! we couldn't be happier for the kenley family!
I thought I posted a comment on this earlier this week, but I don't see it.
I am so, so, so, excited for you all. What a blessing! I literally screamed out loud when I read this blog. SO HAPPY! I just know she'll be fabulous and wonderful and special, just like her mother.
I'm SO happy for you guys! I just knew this one was a girl. I can't wait to meet her! What a special Christmas blessing. I loved having a baby right after Christmas - it just seemed extra special that time of year. Jadon didn't come in stocking though ... :)
