Our Savior's love, shines like the sun with perfect light. As from above, it breaks through clouds of strife.

Getting Ready...

My awesome sister invited our girls up to her house last weekend.  We came back home and spent 2 peaceful nights/ days relaxing and getting ready for the new baby.   We moved SJ's bed into Clara's room -now the "big girl" room- and got the baby's room all ready.  I loved washing and putting away these tiny onesies and nightgowns. 

I spent most of Friday lounging on the couch watching season 1 of Downton Abbey.  The day got even better when I found out Roger Federer won the semifinals of Wimbledon!  Greg and I went out for dates on Thursday AND Friday ... and even stayed out until midnight on Friday night.  It was wild.  :) 
So nice of my sister to anticipate my need for a break before the crazy begins... thanks, Suz!

When the girls got home they were SO excited to be roomates, or "team-mates" as C calls it.  Bedtime is now a big party every night.  Eventually they do fall asleep and we love to look in on them sleeping sweetly in the same room together.

Baby S gets lots of hugs from the girls... SJ likes to pat my belly and say "Baby S., come out!"


39 1/2 weeks...
It won't be long, now!

What a nice break before the baby arrives! And how are you liking Downtown Abbey? Do you love it? Also what size is Clara's bed? It looks HUGE! I am pretty sure she is sleeping in a bed larger than David and I.

The big girl room is so pretty and clean. How did you have the energy to move everything while pregnant? You are Wonder Woman!
