One Michigan couple is rejoicing after they welcomed their baby girl who is the first girl in the family in 138 years. Carolyn and Andrew Clark were thrilled when they found out that their second child was going to be a little girl, who they named Audrey. Carolyn spoke with “Good Morning America” about how stunned she was when she found out that no girls had been born on her husband’s side of the family since 1885. “What do you mean?'” she recalls asking Andrew after they began dating. Pointing out that “it’s a 50-50 chance” with each baby born. “He goes, ‘No, legitimately, we have not had a girl in our direct line in over 100 years.” Carolyn shared that Andrew parents had confirmed the shocking statistic. “They’re like, ‘Oh yeah, no, we haven’t had a girl in our direct line.’ He’s had uncles and cousins that have had girls but in his lineage, there has not been a girl.”

The couple already shared a 4-year-old son, Cameron, before they began trying for another child. After two miscarriages, Carolyn was thrilled to find out she was pregnant again. “We honestly didn’t care if we were having a boy or girl at that point,” she told GMA. “We just were thankful to be pregnant and just praying for a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.” At the gender reveal party, the Clarks and their family and friends found out the gender together. Everyone was served a special cookie that either had pink or blue frosting. “We kept it a secret to ourselves as well,” Andrew told GMA. “So I just assumed it was going to be blue in the center of the cookies.” When everyone took a bite of their cookie, they were all shocked. “Everyone was just screaming and jumping in in disbelief,” Carolyn told WZZM 13. The pair shared that it was “really hard to come up with a name” because “we’ve never thought of a girl name before.”

Baby Audrey was born on March 17th – St. Patrick’s Day – bringing the family “just joy.” As for breaking the 138-year streak of all boys in the Clark family, Carolyn said the turn of events was “icing on the cake.”
