This morning our family met with a good friend, an ultrasound technician, to find out the gender of our growing baby. Before the appointment, each member of the family voted BOY or GIRL. The votes came in 4:1. Caroline was quite confident in her vote for a girl!
Voting Results
Brian: boy
Christine: boy
Nathan: boy
Maren: boy
Caroline: girl
A first look at the ultrasound revealed the obvious: Caroline was right. Reaction to the news? Also 4:1.
Overall Reaction from family members
Brian: very pleased
Christine: so joyful
Caroline: very happy
Maren: so excited
Nathan: devastated
It was a special occasion for our family to see this tiny, developing baby that will soon be ours to hold, love and welcome into our home...in a pretty pink blanket.

CONGRATULATIONS!! Hang in there Nathan! You will be a strong man for growing up in a house full of girls!
Nathan...I'm sorry you didn't see a little brother in that photo shoot. I have to admit, though, I am thrilled to see another little Giles girl on the way--especially one for my little girl to play with! Congratulations on the happy news!
Congratulations! Your family is just like ours - just in reverse order. =) Your girls are so blessed to have such a great big brother!
Congratulations! That is great! I wouldn't expect anything different being that you are part Jones! :)
How wonderful that this new little girl will have such a great big brother to look after her! Congrats to you all.
Hooray! Nathan will be such a wonderful husband and father. :)
And I must say that Giles girls are particularly lovely... Caleb and new baby boy Lewis are so fortunate. Congratulations to you!!
I thought it was going to be a boy! I have a good friend here in Denver who is expecting her 3rd boy despite her fervent prayers for a girl. Perhaps I could arrange a trade for you two? You both make pretty babies! ;-)
How exciting! Poor Nathan! :)

Congrats. I guess you'll just have to try one more time for Nathan! ;)
So sad for Nathan but just think how wonderful and protective he'll be of all the sisters he has! I am so happpy for y'all! Can't wait to hear what name y'all choose.
Congratulations! I'm not feeling to bad for Nathan. He's will always be well taken care of.:)
Yeah for lil' baby girl Giles! Congrats to all! You can tell Nathan that Connor was sad too when he found out Dallin was a boy! :)
Congratulations friend! What a beautiful surprise. I know Nathan will be won over very quickly. What a blessing for your family to have another beautiful sweet loving girl coming your way. I have been thinking of you a lot lately and know these are tender days. Know that we are thinking of you and Sarah and all the family. Sending you much love....
Congrats! Your girls are all so sweet and adorable!
