My first grader!

She's done! Kindergarten is over. Hello summer! And today was just that, a beautiful, warm and sunny day. My girls played outside ALL day long. It has been wonderful.

Here is McKenzie with her sweet teacher yesterday, the last day of school. We loved Mrs. Sattler!

This is Sophia with McKenzie, her very dear friend. They were in the same class this year. They are also in the same primary class and live just around the corner. How lucky is that? We are blessed to have great friends in our neighborhood, school, and church.

McKenzie and Brynn can't wait to make the most of summer. Dad will be home with us, on paternity leave for 6 or 7 weeks. We can't wait.

Now let the newborn madness begin. He's a pretty lucky kid to have such fun and crazy sisters.

Excited for his arrival...

Apologies to my readers (hi mom) that my blog is filled with pictures of me.

A friend of mine asked if she could take some maternity shots of me. I was hesitant, but in the end glad we did it. I am also fortunate that some friends took the time to throw me a baby shower. It turned out to be a beautiful day, fun little party, and filled with goodies for this little boy. I know that he is much easier tucked away inside my belly, but I am still counting down the days until I can hold my little man.
