35/35

Monday I hit the 35 week mark which means just 35 days to go!! Actually 33 today, and God willing even a few less then that! 

We have all been sick for the past two weeks, and Scarlett is cutting all four molars.....hopefully we all get healthy soon and Scarlett's teeth break through before this baby arrives! 

I have been busy nesting, making Caroline's valentines (I think her little friends will LOVE them), getting big sister presents purchased, valentines presents ready, our hospital bag packed and a bag for the girls for Aunt Laura's, baby book's and scrapbook's done and caught up, and just getting all our ducks in a row before we are outnumbered! 

We aren't ready quite yet, but soon baby soon! We can't wait to meet you!

Baby Gift

 Before Scarlett was born we took Caroline to Build-A-Bear to make a special gift from her to the new baby. It was a fun memory for all of us and Cozy the Bear is one of Scarlett's favorite friends today. So, we decided to load the girls up and make another bear for this new arrival from both girls! This time around they chose a cute puppy dog and named him Snuggly!

This new baby is already so lucky to have such wonderful big sisters!
