It's getting REAL!!!!

This weekend marks a big moment in this process for us.  We have had M's room painted for almost 2 years now.  I picked out her bedding before we chose the paint colors.  I made curtains a few weeks ago.  We have been "ready" for a LONG time.  That being said, it got REAL this weekend.  My parents came this weekend to bring her crib (so generously lent to us by my sister and brother-in-law).  Kevin and my dad set it up and my mom and I got all the bedding washed.  While I was outside with the dogs, my mom put all the bedding on.  I walked into her room and had to collect myself.  THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!!!  After all this time - all the prayer, all the tears, all the excitement, all the paperwork, fundraisers, and all-the-while relying on God to do what he does best - it is here!

God-willing, in a few weeks, we will be a united family of four.  Words cannot express how excited we are for that!

Here are some pictures!

The bedding was chosen long before we knew if we would have a he or a she.  I added some feminine flair with some spunky curtains :)

Soon there will be a beautiful baby girl in there!!!!

In the meantime, Wiley has lovingly offered to stand in :)

Her growth chart (custom-made by Grandpa L) is ready to track her as she grows!  The pink board is both decorative (because I had to put pink somewhere!) and functional as it is also a photo board.
