Preparing A Place

We've kicked things into high gear here in the last week or so to make room for baby. All of those final things I've been waiting to finish have finally all come to fruition.

And now we wait.

Fittingly, the kids and I were talking about the virtue of Patience last week at school. The book's definition was simple: Waiting with a happy spirit. We have that reminder on the fridge and we are actively trying to remember patience in all things these days.

The last details of the baby's room are complete








The clothes are washed



And a couple of new ones are waiting (Lily and I couldn't help ourselves)

Stripes and Hearts!!



With a happy spirit we'll wait for the precious baby boy or baby girl that will fill the cozy car seat.


Counting down the days!!

  2. Praying you on out here! I remember all too well how the last weeks dragged, how DONE I was with being pregnant, and hoping the baby would come before I had to deep clean again. Hope you can pass the time by getting a pedicure, haircut, going out to eat, knitting or reading a book or doing some other project that will be more difficult with full hands (and a full heart!).
