Hadley Kay

We are so happy to announce the arrival of our sweet Hadley! She was born March 28 at 8:37 PM. She weighed 8lb 4 oz and was 20 3/4 in. long. Daddy, Mommy, Big Sister, and Little Sister are all doing fabulous!

Busy Growing A Human

Among other things, growing a human has consumed most of my time and energy. Our dear 2nd daughter is due to arrive at any time, but we are sincerely hoping for Monday the 28th. I (with help from Nana and Jeff) cleaned the house over a week ago. Now I'm afraid it needs cleaned again. We'll see. I decided to take my maternity leave a few days early and I don't regret it. #1-I've had some sweet time with my only child for one last hurrah. Mind you, there are battles, but cuddling on the couch and hanging in our PJ's is a time I wouldn't trade for anything.
#2-I've gotten some more preparations done for #2 to arrive. Like room decorating...see pics at the bottom. Again, with great help from my sis, mom, and mom#2
#3-I have felt bad part of the time, so I'm sure I would have been worthless at work. No energy and discomfort does not make for an effective teacher.

So now, here we are, ready to roll, anxiously awaiting our new baby girl. Maybe soon.

Lilian's room

Baby girl's room
It's a shame, but I didn't get any shots of the curtains or crib skirt that my mom#2 made for the baby. They are paisley designs with a light and a brown background. And the decal colors could not have matched more perfectly. I'm super excited! Ready to walk in there and pick up my new darling.
