Before We Know It
Evie just went down for a nap and I am rushing around getting the house ready to be cleaned. I don't know why we all do this, but I feel like I need to have the house cleaned before the cleaners get here. So strange... but I guess I feel like if there is anything out or on the counters, etc. then they wont move it or clean as well under it.
Anyways... this morning was my last OB appointment before our second little girl is brought into this world. I am so anxious and so nervous about the birth. I don't think that I am that nervous about taking care of 2 kids, but just that everything will go smoothly, she will be healthy and the birth will be a joyous celebration. Although I LOVE my little Evie to pieces, I cant help but remember the pain, turmoil and emotion that accompanied her birth. I hate to think that there was anything other than joy and happiness around having Evie, but I guess when you are faced with something so unexpected and so difficult, we didn't have much choice. On that day I felt as if my life was ripped away from me... or as if her life was ripped away from her. Our lives would never be just how I envisioned them in my mind.
God tricked us that day into believing that we didnt get everything we asked for... but we did. We got more than we asked for with Evelyn- she is a miracle and the most amazing little girl that I could ever ask for. I just pray her sister can measure up to her big sis!!! Ha ha.
Stay tuned for pictures of baby Sarah... I can't wait to share them and to take Evie's first picture with her baby sister!!!

Word"full" Thursday
Evelyn's expressive and receptive language has taken off lately...here are just a few of her recent language accomplishments :)
Mama= Mama :)
Duh-duh= Dada, Doggy, Cat (pretty much all animals)
Buh-ba= Bye-bye, Bubbles, Bottle/Drink
Mmmmm= "Moo" (for what does a Cow say)
A-Dah= All done
Clap Hands 2 times= More, Yes, NOW! :)
I just love hearing her little voice!
