We are now one week away from baby's arrival. It's really strange typing that and I can feel so many different emotions rising up inside when I think about this time next week.
We are really thankful for the encouragement from friends and family. We love hearing that you are praying for us - it just means the world! I'm anxious that I'll go early, so please pray baby stays put until our scheduled date. I'm feeling good, tired - but good!
Here's one of the last bump photos!
In other news, Chase is preparing for his role as big brother. He still likes to hang out in the nursery, look at board books, baby toys, and all the gear we've gotten out. This past week I got a carrier for baby and he had to try that on. Pooh bear is our stand-in brother for now.
Chase also loves to put his stuffed animals in the baby swing, turn on the music for them and cover them up. And then he wanted me to change monkey's diaper. So we are getting really good at practicing! It's really sweet to see and I can only imagine how great he will be. When I think of the two of them together I get completely weepy and teary-eyed. What a blessing!

Hi Erin,
I've been thinking about you often over the past few years. Every time I see a butterfly I am reminded of your family. I am wishing you and your family all the best over the next couple of weeks.
Love,
Jenn
