Our Beautiful Addy






















Happy Birthday Addy

Saturday, September 13, 2008

4:48 p.m.

It was a Saturday like all the others, wakin’ up to a bright Kansas sun.

We didn’t have much planned for the day, just runnin’ around gettin’ things done.

But before we could jump out of bed something happened. Let me tell you it wasn’t a joke.

I awoke with a start. I knew it was real. That pop meant my water had broke.

Suddenly it was a Saturday like no other. In our minds there wasn’t a maybe.

We knew in a few hours our lives would forever change as we welcomed our new little baby.

Addy arrived two weeks early with chubby cheeks and lungs you can reliably call strong.

At 7 pounds 11 ounces she is happy and healthy, and did we mention she is 19 inches long?

We know we are partial and very likely biased, but if you disagree we’ll tell you to can it!

It’s so very evident, it’s undeniably true, there’s no cuter babe on the planet.

It was a Saturday like all the others, wakin’ up to a day all the same.

But the day turned to magic, special like no other, when we welcomed our sweet Addy Jane.

Our New Baby Room





We are so grateful to have such amazing families!! Last weekend, my family came up to visit. I mentioned to my mom that I wanted to rearrange the baby's room to look cuter and she really took on the challenge. What resulted was amazing! We spent Saturday turning the baby's room into a pink sanctuary. It is now our favorite room and we often find ourselves there because it's such a happy place. All we need now is our little Addy! We hope she'll be here in the next few weeks!!!! We can't wait!
