Today has been a day of lasts. Not to sound down or anything, it is just weird to know the countdown of when your life will change. We had our last day as a family of three. We went to have some family pictures taken tonight (I even got brave and bared the belly) and then to Cheesecake Factory for our last dinner as a family of three. We have had lots of time with Sweet Pea this week and I have gotten a bit sappy about it all. It is weird to know it's the last time you will have just one child to deal with, feed, bathe, tuck into bed, etc. At this point, we've put Sweet Pea down for the night and are getting ready to watch some Lost and hit the sack. We have a little over 8 hours until Baby Cakes makes her debut. I know that things will be great, just different and honestly, different scares me. I have teared up so many times this week thinking about things, wondering what we've done. I do know that those feeling will all change when I hold my baby girl and when I see Sweet Pea with her baby sister in the morning. Wish us luck!!!
On a lighter note, here are some pictures from tonight.

Well I hope all of those feelings are normal because I had them too! Soon you will forget what it was like with just one! Praying for you guys...Jes
Oh,I can't wait to meet her this afternoon! I'm positive all those feelings are normal. Heck, I wondered "what have we done?" with the first.
You'll do great with two. Remember when you kept Clara for those 2 weeks when she was 2 months old? Didn't slow you down a bit. If I remember correctly, didn't you take both of them with you to a dental appointment? Yeah, you'll be fine.
I'm so eager to hear about when you, G, and Sweet Pea meet her for the first time. First impressions . . . can't wait.
Oh, I am anxious to hear about it all, see pics, and get all the stats too.
I am thinking of you and have you in my prayers.

By now you probably have your new addition so CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I am so excited and anxious to hear all about her and see pictures of course!! We are praying for you guys. And you shouldn't worry think of the many times we had to watch all the kids...when jt, caleb and michelle were all babies. You'll do fine and are a wonderful Mother!
Love ya!

Congrats to you all! I can't wait to hear all about the newest addition! And yes, I think your "sappiness" was so normal...at least I felt them too. It is different and it is a transition but it's so cool. I'll look forward to seeing pics whenever time allows...yeah right!?!
