Getting ready

So as promised here are some picture of things we bought for peanut. The picture below is what we are planning on sending to peanut. There is a blanket, 2 onesies, and two pairs of pants. We will also include some family pictures. All of this fits in the gallon sized bag we can send to peanut.

This outfit was just too cute to resist. So I bought it :) I can't wait for her to wear it.

And this may seem silly but I couldn't help myself. I bought peanut a toothbrush. We were in Target picking up the above items and a few things for us and we were grabbing some mouth wash and I turned around and saw this and just thought it was too cute :)

This weekend we took down the second crib in the nursery, picked out which set of crib bedding we will use and started to clean up the room and get it ready. I am excited to get peanut's room ready. I look in there and think about her often. I picture her sitting in the crib or playing on the floor. Now that I have her picture, I can't help but miss her.

I am still dealing with all the emotions that have flooded me in the last week but faith and some kind words from some dear friends are helping. I have even heard more than once that I am glowing that "new Mom" glow. I guess the permanent smile on my face kind of gives it away. I also have noticed that like most Mom's, I worry. I worry about peanut. I wonder about what she is doing. Is she eating enough? Getting enough love? Is she healthy? Is she comfortable?

Peanut, know that I pray for you everyday. I pray that you are healthy, comfortable and content. I pray for the nannies and doctors that are taking care of you until I can come get you. I pray for your birth family. I pray that the next few months go by quickly. I pray that I can hold you in my arms soon and tell you just how much I love you.
