Michelle L., Michelle E., Courtney, Dijo, Leslie, Heather, Aunt Mary, Angie and Laura...I appreciate everything you did and I know Kristen does as well (thanks also to Bubba and Brandon, your help does not go unnoticed)...
Emerson is truly blessed to have so many people avidly rooting for her and wanting to meet her when she finally arrives, which, according to the Doctor (the real one) and several experts (every person I meet who has had a baby, had a loved one or sibling have a baby or seen a baby born on television) she could come at any time...anywhere...Why you ask? Well, my little girl has dropped into birthing position. She is head down, feet up, ready to roll at a moments notice. Now this doesn't mean she's coming tomorrow (not yet please, marketing presentation God...we discussed this...), but it doees mean she is preparing. That also means we better be.
I cannot begin to describe all of the gifts Emmy is receiving. The travel system (stroller +car seat) from Ada Beth and Aunt Sweetie Pie to the handmade quilts, pillows and bib from the Michelle's and Mrs. Poulter, to everything in between. Everyone is making it much easier to get ready for our new baby.
After the festivities yesterday, Kristen and her mother, that we will affectionately refer to as Toots until a different grandma name is chosen, completed the bed crown. It is unbelieveable! My baby girl has a princess-like crib that she will get to lay her head down in each night. Thats after we allow her to sleep there. I figure she will be sleeping and crying and eating and sleeping and crying and eating in our room every night for quite a while. The only sewing left is the curtains which will be completed sooner rather than later I am guessing. I think Kathy is ready for the sewing to be completed...and I am sure Tim is as well...By the way, since Kathy is Toots, that makes Tim, you guessed it, Tooter...Emerson definitely has the most "complete" room in the house.Thanks again to all who are making my baby's pregnancy so special and who are making my daughter's early life much easier. We couldn't do this without all of you.
