3 Days Left.....

We're closer than we've ever been (until tomorrow) to becoming parents. Thea is doing a great job protecting and feeding our little "Jelly Bean". It's crazy how the first 7 months flew by super fast, where these last few weeks have felt like 10weeks.

Last week the office threw a little cupcake and advice party for me. Here are some of our favorite pieces of advice.
"Rich, if the diaper stinks, give her to Thea to change." anonymous
"If she cries, whines or pouts; it's her personality. If she's happy go lucky; it your personality." anonymous
"If you buy child raising books, get the ones with the hard covers; they're much more effective." anonymous"
"Have the next one ASAP" anonymous
"Keep plenty of Benedryl on hand for traveling. Be flexible (for about 18 years). Let'em cry" anonymous
"Don't feel bad if you feel like giving the baby back. Just realize you can't!" anonymous
"Enjoy the last few weeks of being physically fit. That baby will find your soft center. Next thing you know, you're hosting a fifth birthday party and you're soft all over. It's the best." Matt

The past few weeks have been full of new arrivals.
Congratulations to Corey and Natascha MacMillan on the arrival of little Thomas James (aka TJ).
Congratulations to AJ and Leaha (sp) on the arrival of their little Bella.
Last and definitely not least, congrats to Chad and Linda Nelson on the arrival of little Issac.

With all our friends having their babies, Thea and I are getting a little impatient. Our new lady will be here any day now!!
