For some, having kids feels like a roadblock to living the life they dream of. But for others, children are pure joy, like taking a trip to the moon and back. The sound of little feet running through the house, the laughter, and even the chaos bring life and happiness to a home.
Most parents dream of having both a son and a daughter. That’s why Alexis Brett, 39, and her husband David, 44, were over the moon when they welcomed their first daughter, Cameron, after having 10 boys!
Alexis admits she was nervous before the gender scan. So, she gave the job of finding out the news to her 16-year-old son, Harrison.
“No one believed it would be a girl,” she says. “We were all expecting another boy.”
But when she heard the news, her reaction was priceless. “I was shocked but so happy. Now that she’s here, it’s an amazing feeling.”
Cameron, their only daughter, is already a star in the family. Her brothers, aged two to 17, couldn’t be more excited to welcome her.
“They’ve been on their best behavior around her,” David shares. “They’re quiet so they don’t wake her up, and they love helping with holding and feeding her. It’s been wonderful.”
