I cannot give enough thanks to friends and family for showing so much enthusiasm over this baby! Who knew opening presents could be so exhausting? It’s Thursday and I’ve finally recovered from the past 2 crazy weekends! I’m so thankful for all of the family and friends who’ve made me feel incredibly blessed with their words of kindness, prayers and gifts! I am truly humbled by your generosity! As I’m finishing out the 37th week I also give thanks for such a wonderful pregnancy because I’m still feeling great! This week my focus has been on organizing the awesome baby loot we’ve acquired and making room for the grand entrance of the long-awaited baby crib! We finally made a decision last weekend and I think you’ll be surprised to see it’s nothing like anything we had considered in the previous rounds of crib shopping. My parents will be here tomorrow to hand it off and also celebrate Nic’s birthday. I will have to post some pics once everything is in place. With only 2 weeks to spare, I can finally relax as the nursery will be complete (not quite but close enough)!

Sending well wishes to Iowa City today while my baby sister officially becomes a Hawkeye! Good luck with the moving – I know you’ll love it there! I’m so excited for both my sisters to be living in IC and only a short drive away from me and their soon-to-be niece! Visit often, you can even bring your laundry!
