no news, just a few pics.
…because the daddy is home, and my girl is in love all over with him.
…and we brought this book home from the bookstore today that has since been read to her three times from daddy, twice from mama, once from austyn, and she somehow fanaggled austyn’s friend ashford into reading it to her twice.
and enjoying her everythingness today.
that’s all. just a pop-in for some sweet pics.
Wowsa, she looks JUST like you in this last pic. Stunning.
that last pic…divine
Seconding the ‘looks just like you’ in that last pic – wow. I love “everythingness” – makes me smile! So glad Brett’s home. Don’t you just feel something let go when he’s home? Like you didn’t realize you were working so hard holding everything together. 🙂
So glad that Brett is home! By the way, you should wait until the 22nd to have the baby, if you can, because then she’ll have a palindrome birthday 01-22-10! It’d be pretty sweet! I’m just saying…
I love that Lainey kept asking Brett…”Are you coming to my house?” when you picked him up…ha! Can’t wait to see you. Must have some time with Lainey…and the boys this time–didn’t see enough of them last time. Enjoy these last pregnant days–she will never be easier to carry than now.
WOW! She has grown up so much. Those pictures are just beautiful.
When did her eyes get so dark? I thought they were more green. She’s very beautiful and definitely has your eyes.
my girls favorite part?
(just in case you were wondering.)
mommy loves me. daddy loves me. i’m special to them because i’m the only me in the whole world.
… i think i can recite it page for page (or a close approximation!) it has been in someone’s book choice every night for quite a few weeks around here.
waiting is hard. but it’s so worth it in the end.
LOVE the pop-in (and the second to last pic of your girl!)
We have that one too and Heidi was attached to it for at least two weeks. It’s amazing how much books can help transitions like this–thinking of you tonight and so excited for you!
Love the daddy home. And my favorite pic? The second to last one, with the pouty lips!
Very Sweet 🙂 I agree with the others, she looks just like you in the last picture!
i would like to have seen ashford reading to her. i hope to come to naples this summer and when i do, hope to see all of you, including the new little. xoxo
