What did this mean for us? More daughters. Like Elsie, at her soccer game (Ida has quit soccer because she hates it! More later on that.)
Also, much exotic behavior: (picture deleted at Ella's insistence)>
We've been afraid of this weekend for quite some time, but now that it's here and almost over (all the girls are in bed for night 2), it's been fairly successful. I mean, pretty non-stop, and some hard no-nap teasing accusations and lack of adequate bicycles almost stopped us, but Ella now thinks we should have another child.
Very impressed with how Elsie asks if she may be excused from the dinner table. In contradistinction to Ida, who tends to leap up and the slightest chance and do something else for a while. Today I asked, "Ida, where are you going?" "Oh, outside to run up and down the driveway for a while." Soon she had everyone fully involved:
More about the zoo trip, etc, real soon.

Happy belated Birthday, Pete!
And don't think we all didn't notice and talk obsessively about this comment, "Ella now thinks we should have another child." Briana and I discussed how we could be willing to carry you and Ella's baby if the only hang up was Ella not wanting to be pregnant :)
THanks so much for the offer. We'll get on this project right away! Actually, Ella actually really enjoys the childbirth part, so perhaps if one of you are willing to carry the child close to term, then we could make some kind of transfer before the actual birth?
YAY! If anyone can do it, I bet we can.
Go Team.
Absolutely in thrall to you two that you took over all the girls for a week end. Sometimes I imagine just taking care of 2 of them....
