Do you think that today is the day? Will our phone ring with the call? Some days it feels like we have been waiting forever but in all reality, it's only been a couple of months. I am consumed with thoughts of our daugther. I keep telling myself that most people have to wait for 9 months to meet their child. I should be more patient. It's so easy to say those words but much more difficult to actually do it. Good grief, am I pitiful or what? Changing the subject......




I am a part of group of wonderful girls called the Flip Flop Club. We started out as a supper club but I am here to tell you that they are so much more than that to me. Anyway, Saturday night, we had a baby shower for my sister in law. I was included in the baby shower! I got a car seat and stroller travel system! I was so excited!! Thanks again to my girls!




Our crib came in and Brett put it together. He got very frustrated several times and had to walk away from it but he finally figured it out. It is so gorgeous! Our dresser should be here soon. Hopefully it won't require much construction. :) Things are coming together in the nursery. Decorating for a girl is so fun!

Our yard sale was a HUGE success!! Our first customer arrived at 7am and we worked until 12pm. Our total was $712.86! Thank you to everyone who donated their stuff. Thanks also to everyone who showed up to help! We appreciate it more than you know!

Every day I write in a journal to Ellison. Mason decided that he would also like to write to her. Here is his first letter. So incredibly sweet!!
