Libby has a cribby

Just shy of 33 weeks pregnant it is very safe to say that the nursery has been a very slow process. 

Clean out. reorganize. donate repeat...

Complete fruit basket turnover. Slowly but surely a nursery is coming together.

Libby's baby bed was a generous gift from my parents. It arrived RIGHT before John left for Haiti. What a labor of love to put it together before his trip.

happy birthday honey!

We love you!

please pray

I am shipping off my favorite, most loved, most cherished person in the world

...all the way here

Haiti.

John is thrilled. His heart aches for these people and he longs to make a difference.

I am selfish, and I honestly just like having him with me.

He is called and I am thankful that he can go on behalf of our family.

Pray that these people see the love of our great big God. Pray that lives are forever changed. Pray that John is able to make a difference for His glory...and please pray he comes home safely

showered

My heart might just explode with gratitude for these girls. I am thankful for them daily, and proud to call each of them friend. 

Last weekend they hosted a baby shower in honor of our baby girl, and truly went above and beyond in every way.

Beautiful home, beautiful food, beautiful flowers

special personalized touches and details

yummy, perfect cookies

and so many precious, wonderful gifts!

I have to also brag on John who surprised me by sending a gift to the shower. He is incredible and never ceases to amaze me with his kindness.

I was so overwhelmed, honored and humbled it moved in to the ugly cry

So thankful. So blessed. So excited about our baby girl who is already so loved.

A special thank you to the most important women in my life for taking the time and effort to travel to celebrate Libby. What a gift to have each of you there on such a wonderful day.

Aly, thank you for capturing these memories. I will treasure them always.
