Congratulations Heather & Mike!
What wonderful news, I am so happy for you. Binky is so lucky to have such loving family. Keeping you, Binky, and your gorgeous Maddie in my prayers. Wishing you all the best – you deserve it.
I’m not pregnant and you don’t know me, but for what it’s worth……if I ever have another little girl, her name will me Amanda!;) We have this whole starts with an “A” and ends with an “A” thing in our family…..I know, we’re weird! And her Daddy’s name would be Adam and I’ve always wanted to incorporate his name in our daughters name somehow……………………yikes, long reply, sorry! Just wanted to say I LOVE the name AMANDA!
I knew it!! Congrats! I know she’ll be as radiant and beautiful as Maddie. So much love to you, Mike and your girls (and Rigby too). Can’t wait to meet the little princess.
congrats I am so happy for you! I hope this child brings you so much joy and happiness and allows you to leave some of your sadness behind! God bless you!
Congratulations! I was so sure it would be a boy, but shows what I know. She’ll be gorgeous, I’m sure – she has good genes. Congrats on finding out! I (and the rest of your readers, I’m sure) can’t wait to “meet” her!
SQUEEEEEEE!!!!! I’m jumping up and down for you guys!!! How exciting! I hope she’s a girly girl like Maddie. Looking forward to all the fashion shows!!

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness… I am so happy for you! A sister for Maddie! How perfect! Somehow I just know Maddie Moo thinks so too (and not just because it rhymes)!!
Modesty, eh? Must get that from her mom *snicker*
Congrats, Heather (and Mike and Maddie and Rigby too!)! *hugs*

I’m going to send my pregnant friends/family out to get that predictive test you did a few weeks ago. Congratulations from about the umpteenth hundredth person. Her modesty will come in handy come the teenage years. Mike will be relieved she started out with such tendencies, for sure. I hope this u/s gave some good peaceful mind vibes that she’s doing just great. You’re a great mama hen, always doing what is needed to grow your little chicks. I’m glad Maddie and Binky let you in on their little secret finally- I’m sure M. teamed up with B. to play a little peekaboo for Mom and Dad. They both love YOU both an awful lot and want only your happiness and never ending love, which they know is more than taken care of.
.-= Janeen´s last blog ..And they call him… =-.
In some ways, I think a boy would have been easier (easier to not compare, easier decision on “will he be wearing the yellow polka dot bikini this season?”, etc), but I am so happy for you and just that much more excited for the [timely] debut of Miss Binky.
.-= Adelas´s last blog ..BABY! (aka oops, I forgot to post) =-.

CONGRATS……I really do feel that this little girl is already something special, as I am sure you do too. God has sent her to you, and maybe little Miss Maddie has known her little sister, even before she is to come into this world. Hoping you are finding comfort….. God Bless your family.
I have goose bumps thinking of your family…all four of you.
continued prayers and thoughts for a safe and complication free pregnancy and delivery, and the arrival of a beautiful, happy little girl to further bring joy to both of your lives.
Congrats! I am glad things are going ok. I have to admit I was a little worried this morning when there wasn’t a post. I am so happy for you.
.-= Midwest Mommy´s last blog ..Holy Hot Dogs! =-.
I read your blog all the time…I still dont know how I stumbled upon it…but I am so thrilled that you are having a beautiful little girl! Maddie will be watching her little sister very closely from heaven.
After reading this, I’m the happiest I’ve been in a long time for 9:52pm. Congratulations…so very excited about this news!
.-= Angie´s last blog ..Just another Friday evening… =-.
There is nothing better than little girls. They are just the yummiest. So happy for you and so glad that you know so you can plan and process some of the things you discussed a few days ago.
And so everything looks good in there I take it? That’s awesome news too. Will you let us know some time when you hit a relief spot? Maybe like getting past were you were with Maddie when you went into labor. I know you don’t want to give details of when you’re due or talk about this very much and I do not want to pry. But I’d love to know when we can all breathe a few sighs of relief along the way with you if you’re ok with that at some point. Maybe very vague and general. I keep wondering and hoping you’re hitting those places week by week.
It really seems as if everything is just going great in there. But for all the sticks, a normal pregnancy. Oh and the nausea. Dadgum nausea. Hang in there. We’re sending an awful lot of good vibes your way.
So, so happy for you guys. I’m so happy she decided to make her big reveal! You make amazingly beautiful baby girls, can’t wait to “meet” this precious one.
YAY! I had to laugh – we just had our ultrasound for our baby and after losing three before, we were very nervous and anxious. I was terrified that we wouldn’t find out anything.
But our girl was anything but modest – she had her legs WIDE open…
WoooooooHoooooo!!!!!!! Sooooo thrilled for you and Mike! {{{HUGS}}}

I’m sure Little Miss Binky will be beautiful like Maddie. You two made just about the most beautiful little girl I’ve ever seen. Thanks for sharing this great news. What a lucky little girl she is to have you guys.
Congrats! My mom always said that she didn’t want any boys. “Girls are just the way to go!” She would say to me. My parents stopped after having two girls; me and then my younger sister. Even though my grandparents hinted that my parents should try for a boy, she just refused. I truly hope that your new little girl brings you just as much joy as Madeline did.
Congrats! I am sure Maddie is smiling down, someone who can share her toys, her clothes and her love of mama and daddy.
.-= LizardBreath´s last blog ..Imagination explosion =-.
i was going to say something about how finding out that you’re having another daughter must be complicated for you, but duh, no matter what it would be complicated. just call me captain obvious.
like everyone else i am looking forward to getting to know maddie’s little sister… and wishing you a healthy and uneventful rest of your pregnancy!
.-= liza´s last blog ..dancey pants =-.
I am so happy for you to finally know your Binky is a girl. I have to say I did cry a little inside though thinking of Maddie and how much Maddie would love her baby sister. I think your little girl’s heart was bigger than the entire United States.
Binky is a very lucky little girl and I absolutely can not wait to hear about her arrival safe and sound.
Much love. Much, much love to you all.
.-= Colleen´s last blog ..Thank you =-.
What a beautiful sight. Thanks for sharing your new little girl with all of us. I’m sure her big sister is smiling big…

Congratulations! And I’m so glad everything seems to be okay still *knock on wood* But wow, I could not be an ultrasound tech. How do they find girl parts in that? Even with that arrow, I can’t tell.
By the way, today is Monday…aren’t your appointments usually on Tuesdays? Yes, I do stalk your blog.
Congratulations on this little GIRL, who is sure to be so beautiful and SO deeply cherished. We are all excited to meet her after her nine months are complete.
aww! yay! i would have done a happy dance.
i KNEW she would be a girl. number one, i just did. number two, my local news station tested intellegender on a woman who knew what she was having and intellegender got the sex right. so intellegender was just the confirmation.
i have to say it one more time: intellegender.
i guess it’s a good thing mike likes baby girls…
it’s kind of weird to refer to binky as binky now that you’ve shared that she’s a girl. however, no rush to name her. she’s not coming for a while.
OOhh Heather and Mike! As soon as I read your post, I bursted into tears!!! It’s offical….”we” get another perfect little girl! YAHOO!!!! How happy I am for you and your family! I cannot wait to “meet” her and learn all about her!!! What’s her name?
Too be completely honest, when you didn’t post first thing I became a little anxious and worried for you. But, now this! Thank Heaven for little girls and for the strong, unselfish mama’s who carry them!!! Both she and Maddie are so lucky to have you and Mike as parents!!!
Sending you lots of love and friendshiip and hugs from Canada. Thank you very much for sharing your amazing news with us and both of your daughters! How lucky we all are to know you all now!!!!
Now, it would be innappropriate to say that I was waiting for this announcement on more baited breath (is that even a saying?) than when my bro and sis in law gave birth this weekend without finding out the sex! (A girl, also…)
I’m so happy for your family! I don’t know why, but it just feels “right” that she’s a girl…obviously you would be thrilled with any healthy baby, but something inside me has just felt from your pregnancy announcement that your family was meant to raise beautiful baby girls. :o)
Hi Heather,
Forgive me for taking advantage of you, but I know you’ve been blessed by the power of prayer on the internet, and you have many readers who I believe would be willing to pray… I have a prayer request for a 13 month-old girl who has suffered head trauma, undergone 2 surgeries, and is now in a coma. If you wouldn’t mind, please pass the information and prayer request on. Thank you!
Congratulations! Your baby girl must be much more modest than mine….mine was more than happy to give us the money shot at 18 weeks. Very happy for you.
Oh my!!!! Congratulations from a lurker!!! What a modest (stubborn, strong willed :)??) little BINK-ETTE!!!! I love her already and I don’t even know ya’ll IRL! Praying for a longgggggggg, un-eventful, full-term pregnancy from Alabama!
~Debbie~
Heartfelt congratulations and blessings! Beautiful like the rest of her family. I was always determined if I had another girl her name would be Mackenzie Grace, you can have it if you want
I’ve only just seen this post my dear sweet Heather. I am so delighted to read this wonderful news! Yeah for the extra special Binky Bean showing the goods!! Huge congratulations to you, Mike, big sister Maddie and Rigby. Sending you all a great big hug.
With love
Erica, your friend in Luxembourg
I see you already have over 200 comments to read for today’s entry, so I will keep it short. Congratulations to you both. May you have a beautiful, healthy baby girl
Had to be a girl! I am elated for you and Mike! My mom had a baby that died @ 3yrs old and then the next baby she had, she named her JEWEL because she was truly a “jewel” to them!
Congratulations and praying for a healthy pregnancy and baby girl!
I am a stalker too but I love little Maddie and was right there with you when she flew into Gods open arms:)
AAAWWWWW Heather I am sooo glad for you. Now that my name Bodi Christopher Spohr is out, what are we going to name HER? Back to the drawing board! I hope you are over the moon with the news about your new bundle of joy. I am very excited for you both! Hopefully all the sickness will start to taper off and you can enjoy a little of your pregnancy. At least you won’t have to change any of the decor in the bedroom. Keep the girlie girl stuff! Stay put Bink! We really do need a name now! Get crackin’ on that now we know she is a she! I’ll start throwing some of my favorites out there!
1. Mandy Spohr
2. Juliette Spohr
3. Emiliee Spohr
4. Lauren Nicole Spohr
5. Miranda Spohr
6. Niah Spohr
7. Rebecca Spohr
ps. Heather, if you guys already have a name and don’t want to share it with us, of course we will understand! Some things are special and maybe you want to keep it to yourselves for now. Whatever you want to let us know, that’s great. And whatever you want to keep sacred now (or forever), we support you all the way!!!
No pressure to share little Miss Binky’s name any time soon!!!
I am with you on Abigail, I think it would be perfect!
and on the pressure to share of course. I think Heather does more sharing then any of us could ever ask for. I, like so many of us, am so grateful for all that she shares as it is.
Well congratulations, Heather and Mike! So glad to hear your news! She’s blessed already to have the two of you as parents and Maddie as her angel. Congrats again!
.-= Liz´s last blog ..A Whole Year Without You =-.
I was out surfing the internet last night and I dont really recall how I stumbled across your page. I know that I have spent the last 9 hours reading everyting back to May09. I have cried I have laughed I have smiled. I was amazed at Maddie’s beautiful big blue eyes and long eye lashes. What a totally perfect little angel. Congratulations on Binky. My prayers and well wishes for a healthy full term happy bouncing buddle of joy. That both Mommy and Binky are healthy and happy. *HUGS*
.-= Angela´s last blog ..This Month I lost My Dad =-.
As I watched my two boys play this morning, I couldnt help but think about your Maddie. I know she is cherishing her time with Binky until it is time for Binky to be with you.
Tears of joy, tears of sorrow ~ I still can’t believe she is gone.
My great-grandmother would always say to babies, “God love you.” The memory of that sentence makes me tear up because she said it with such love, such faith, such complete and utter sweetness. I say that now to you and Mike, to little Miss Binky, to Maddie, who is always with you in your heart: God love you and bless you. Thank you for sharing your Binky news with so many who love and care about you from afar! xo
Congrats to you! Little Miss Binky is certainly blessed and will always have an angel on her shoulder with Miss Madeline. I am so excited for you and can’t wait to get to know and love her as we did Miss Maddie!
Congrats! So are you going to share some possible names that you’re considering with us? Binky just doesn’t see to do it…
.-= Karen´s last blog ..I surrender… =-.
I wish for many blessings for this little baby — Madeline’s sister, your second daughter and a new little person in her own right, getting ready to enter the world. I will be thinking of your family every day in the coming months as you prepare to greet her.
You have told us about the physical difficulties and the anxiety of this pregnancy, all while you grapple with the grief and anguish of losing Maddie. Even though it is an impossible task, I try to understand what you are going through — I take so many lessons away from your story. Today, I take joy. Congratulations, Heather.
i hope you’ve been able to find some peace…as exciting as this all is, i know you must be going through something more complicated than i can ever imagine.
Congrats!
My daughter did the same thing – kept her pretty little legs crossed for ages but finally let us take a peek! So happy for you guys. Have you picked out a name?
.-= Christiana´s last blog ..Going Overboard =-.

From the bottom of my heart I am so happy for you. I can’t comprehend the conflict you must be feeling in your heart, but I believe that Maddie is watching over you. Your tiny guardian angel and she is smiling and clapping and so excited for you to welcome her baby sister into this world.
Much love to your family.
You help us all to value life, and appreciate what we have.
Congratulations and lots of hugs to you both!!
I was gifted the Honest Scrap Award from a fellow blogger. You are supposed to pass it on to others. I have passed it on to both you and Mike! I hope you have a beautiful day!
.-= Kristy´s last blog ..People are so amazing…… =-.
Congrats to you and Mike! So happy for you! hope you and Binky are doing well! Hope you’re feeling a lot better these past few days! sending you hugs XXX
Congratulations. You have so many many people praying for you all……can’t even imagine all the emotions you’re going through……I read your blog all the time….learned about it from Matt Logelin’s blog. Thanks for sharing your lives with us all.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I’m so happy for the both of you. I hope you don’t take this the wrong way (my stuff always sounds “right” in my head)… I know that no baby can ever replace Maddie, but I hope that this baby girl (Binky Spohr) will… share (???)… some of Maddie’s mannerisms, looks, etc so that you will truly know that Maddie had a hand in her baby sister. I hope that it makes things easier (never better) and that this gives you a renewed sense of joy. Wishing you much love and hugs from NJ!
Just wanted to extend my most heartfelt congratulations! We’ve never met in person or through the web but I just want you to know how extremely inspiring you are to me and to all those who follow your blog.
Madeline is surely smiling brightly with those gorgeous eyes of hers upon you, Mike and her baby sister growing inside of you.
My daughter Ainsley and I send you all our love, support and cheers your way from NY to CA. May you never be without hope, without love or without the innermost treasures of your heart – Madeline Alice Sophr!
This made me cry! I can only imagine your emotion. I just said a quick prayer for you, how do you take the joy and the pain all at once? I have ALWAYS wanted a sister. Binky won’t get to meet her sister this side of heaven. She will only know her precious memory.

HI Heather,
This must be so exciting but equally difficult for you. Not a day goes by I don’t think about you, Mike, Maddie & Binky! I know Binky will be loved sooo much by all three of you. Wishing you a safe and LONG pregnancy.
PS: I called it before the first ultrasound ( without boy parts).
Oh joy! My eyes are filling with happy tears for you. Thanks for sharing such exciting and wonderful news. (Hope your trip to this side of the country is good to you.)

Well Hello Miss Binky!!
Janeen says:
I’m going to send my pregnant friends/family out to get that predictive test you did a few weeks ago. Congratulations from about the umpteenth hundredth person. Her modesty will come in handy come the teenage years. Mike will be relieved she started out with such tendencies, for sure. I hope this u/s gave some good peaceful mind vibes that she’s doing just great. You’re a great mama hen, always doing what is needed to grow your little chicks. I’m glad Maddie and Binky let you in on their little secret finally- I’m sure M. teamed up with B. to play a little peekaboo for Mom and Dad. They both love YOU both an awful lot and want only your happiness and never ending love, which they know is more than taken care of.

There is nothing better than little girls. They are just the yummiest. So happy for you and so glad that you know so you can plan and process some of the things you discussed a few days ago.
And so everything looks good in there I take it? That’s awesome news too. Will you let us know some time when you hit a relief spot? Maybe like getting past were you were with Maddie when you went into labor. I know you don’t want to give details of when you’re due or talk about this very much and I do not want to pry. But I’d love to know when we can all breathe a few sighs of relief along the way with you if you’re ok with that at some point. Maybe very vague and general. I keep wondering and hoping you’re hitting those places week by week.
It really seems as if everything is just going great in there. But for all the sticks, a normal pregnancy. Oh and the nausea. Dadgum nausea. Hang in there. We’re sending an awful lot of good vibes your way.

aww! yay! i would have done a happy dance.
i KNEW she would be a girl. number one, i just did. number two, my local news station tested intellegender on a woman who knew what she was having and intellegender got the sex right. so intellegender was just the confirmation.
i have to say it one more time: intellegender.
i guess it’s a good thing mike likes baby girls…
it’s kind of weird to refer to binky as binky now that you’ve shared that she’s a girl. however, no rush to name her. she’s not coming for a while.

OOhh Heather and Mike! As soon as I read your post, I bursted into tears!!! It’s offical….”we” get another perfect little girl! YAHOO!!!! How happy I am for you and your family! I cannot wait to “meet” her and learn all about her!!! What’s her name?
Too be completely honest, when you didn’t post first thing I became a little anxious and worried for you. But, now this! Thank Heaven for little girls and for the strong, unselfish mama’s who carry them!!! Both she and Maddie are so lucky to have you and Mike as parents!!!

Hi Heather,
Forgive me for taking advantage of you, but I know you’ve been blessed by the power of prayer on the internet, and you have many readers who I believe would be willing to pray… I have a prayer request for a 13 month-old girl who has suffered head trauma, undergone 2 surgeries, and is now in a coma.

Hopefully all the sickness will start to taper off and you can enjoy a little of your pregnancy. At least you won’t have to change any of the decor in the bedroom. Keep the girlie girl stuff!

Dee says:
My great-grandmother would always say to babies, “God love you.” The memory of that sentence makes me tear up because she said it with such love, such faith, such complete and utter sweetness. I say that now to you and Mike, to little Miss Binky, to Maddie, who is always with you in your heart: God love you and bless you. Thank you for sharing your Binky news with so many who love and care about you from afar! xo

suzanne says:
I wish for many blessings for this little baby — Madeline’s sister, your second daughter and a new little person in her own right, getting ready to enter the world. I will be thinking of your family every day in the coming months as you prepare to greet her.
You have told us about the physical difficulties and the anxiety of this pregnancy, all while you grapple with the grief and anguish of losing Maddie. Even though it is an impossible task, I try to understand what you are going through — I take so many lessons away from your story. Today, I take joy. Congratulations, Heather.
Caitlin says:
I’m so incredibly happy for you!
i hope you’ve been able to find some peace…as exciting as this all is, i know you must be going through something more complicated than i can ever imagine.

From the bottom of my heart I am so happy for you. I can’t comprehend the conflict you must be feeling in your heart, but I believe that Maddie is watching over you. Your tiny guardian angel and she is smiling and clapping and so excited for you to welcome her baby sister into this world.
Much love to your family.
You help us all to value life, and appreciate what we have.

april in NJ says:
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I’m so happy for the both of you. I hope you don’t take this the wrong way (my stuff always sounds “right” in my head)… I know that no baby can ever replace Maddie, but I hope that this baby girl (Binky Spohr) will… share (???)… some of Maddie’s mannerisms, looks, etc so that you will truly know that Maddie had a hand in her baby sister. I hope that it makes things easier (never better) and that this gives you a renewed sense of joy. Wishing you much love and hugs from NJ!
Nellie says:
Just wanted to extend my most heartfelt congratulations! We’ve never met in person or through the web but I just want you to know how extremely inspiring you are to me and to all those who follow your blog.
Madeline is surely smiling brightly with those gorgeous eyes of hers upon you, Mike and her baby sister growing inside of you.
My daughter Ainsley and I send you all our love, support and cheers your way from NY to CA. May you never be without hope, without love or without the innermost treasures of your heart – Madeline Alice Sophr!

This made me cry! I can only imagine your emotion. I just said a quick prayer for you, how do you take the joy and the pain all at once? I have ALWAYS wanted a sister. Binky won’t get to meet her sister this side of heaven. She will only know her precious memory.

HI Heather,
This must be so exciting but equally difficult for you. Not a day goes by I don’t think about you, Mike, Maddie & Binky! I know Binky will be loved sooo much by all three of you. Wishing you a safe and LONG pregnancy.

Hope you are feeling fine.
