I know everyone is DYING to find out our news. We are happy to announce that our third child is a "charming" baby GIRL! That's right-- we now have THREE girls!
After laboring at home for a while, Patrick decided that we needed to go to the hospital, and we arrived at about 1:30 pm. Things continued to progress pretty quickly and at 4:54 pm our new baby made her way into the world. I have to admit that I was pretty surprised when Patrick announced that it was a girl because almost everyone had been predicting it would be a boy! She was 8 lbs 3 oz and 21 inches long, with a huge McKinnon head. And once again, I was able to do it all without any drugs, thanks to Patrick, my great "doula"!
Name to be announced soon. . .

She's Beautiful!! Good job Mer, I love that there are three sisters, lots of fun to look forward to.
I haven't even seen pictures until now and I have been dying. I love that hair. She's so darling. I'm glad someone else in the family was able to have an 8 pounder!!Congratulations. I love that baby already and can't wait to get my hands on her. Too bad that won't be until she's 6 months old. I'm going to die waiting that long! I hope you are adjusting well. I just sent a little gift in the mail today so expect it soon!!
Congratulations! She's beautiful - I love all that dark hair!

She is so cute. I think she looks like a McKinnon. I love all the hair. I can't wait to hear on the name. I know you will pick something great. I hope to talk with you soon.
Love you,
Megs

Mere - my comment was posted from my sister's computer above - you don't have an anonymous stalker named Lynne. Congrats again - you look amazing!!!

Oh, my she is a beauty. Thanks for bringing another beautiful baby girl into our family. We love you, j
Congratulations, McKinnon Family!!! She's BEAUTIFUL!!! I thought 'Boy' for sure, too! Looks like I owe Justin a massage.. ;) I'm so happy you were able to have the delivery you wanted! How wonderful! Congratulations, again! Looks like baby girl has some very proud big sisters! :)
She's just beautiful. The big sister's look so cute holding the new baby. Let us know what we can do to help. Congrats again!
What a cutie! Congratulations on your third beautiful little girl! I can't wait to hear her name. (And I'm a little disappointed that you won't be using any of those Scottish boys' names!)
Contragulations! That is wonderful that the birth went so well and that she is so healthy. She's beautiful! I have to admit, I'm also a little surprised it wasn't a boy. And like Karey, I'm disappointed you won't be able to use any names from that list!
Congratulations Patrick,Mere, and girls! That's fantastic! What a beautiful baby girl. Makes me want to have one (a girl that is, not a newborn). Mere, you look great! Can't wait to hear the name.
Congratulations. All three of your daughters are so beautiful!
Congratulations! You all look so great. Babies are not usually that good looking straight from the womb, but she's sure a keeper.
And no, I think it was probably mowing the lawn more than the peach rings. Dang, in that heat?!?!
HOORAY! Wow, another girl! We live in different worlds! She's darling and your girls must be thrilled. Hope things go smoothly over the next few days...what did you NAME her?
All 3 girls are just perfect together! What great news:)
Congratulations. You're 3 girls and my 3 boys should get together for a play date one of these days. We're so happy for you. And a delivery with no drugs...wow! I'm impressed! She's a beauty! --Ashley and Scott
Wow Mer--congratulations! You are amazing, your baby is gorgeous, and could your other two girls possibly look more identical???!?!
Sooooo precious!!!!
Congratulations.
It almost makes me want to have a 3rd. (Almost...)
