our baby girl

We are so excited to share our newest addition, Adalaide May {7 lbs 14 oz, 20 in}. She is the most precious little thing, the perfect addition to our family. Finley adores her baby sister and loves to help out any way she can. We'll post later with lots more pictures...

last day as a family of 3

Tomorrow is the big day. We get to meet our baby girl!!! Even though we've had the date picked our for a while, it feels like the day has snuck up on us. I realized late this evening that we haven't taken any belly pictures in quite a while, so we threw together a little photo op. We couldn't find a room with decent lighting so forgive all the shadows and weird lighting.









And here I am getting some birthday loving from my family this morning.
Coffee, kisses, and a yummy breakfast made by my hubby. Great last day pregnant if you ask me.

i love her

finley and i did some baking this morning. can i call it baking if it's from a box? for some reason she was full of smiles and hamming it up for the camera. maybe it had a little something to do with the sugar she was consuming.

finley pretty much could spend hours playing in our new stroller. it's sort of her version of a fort, i guess. at any given time you will find it jammed with multiple babies, bottles, blankets, burp clothes, and so forth. this girl is READY for her sister.

some baby prep

I'll be honest, we have not made much of a ta-da for this baby girl simply because we have been consumed with our remodel. Basically, our house is still in total disarray, and will most likely be until the very last second. I've been fighting my urge to nest like you wouldn't believe, but I couldn't take it any longer. I may or may not have gone a smidge crazy-pregnant-lady for a few minutes while I demanded that the baby's dresser and the tub of newborn clothes be brought out of storage. Thankfully, my dear husband obliged and I had the most enjoyable afternoon organizing my baby's clothes.
Also, I did a fun little craft project. My friend hillary has the most amazingly creative sister. Seriously, I want to copy everything she does. And I did just that with this pottery barn inspired flower mobile. She gave a little tutorial on her blog, and it was surprisingly easy {and much cheaper than the PB one}.
And speaking of hillary... she mentioned that she would be bringing her own snap front baby shirt to the hospital so that the baby can wear something other than the ugly hospital one they give you. Smart idea, huh. I ran right out and got a pack of my own to embellish.

how can you resist a darling little ruffle?

this little ditty has two rosettes.
and finally a monogram
Baby girl is set to arrive in two weeks. Two weeks!! Can you believe it?! I am so so so anxious to meet our little girl.
