Getting Ready for Leighton

Well, my list of things to do before Leighton gets here is almost complete. Just a couple things left. But, by all means, this baby can come now!!! :) One week from today is my due date. I am READY! :)

Now that we have been getting all the baby stuff out, Jaylyn has been more excited. She knows that it is CLOSE. The girls have helped me hang up baby clothes in the closet, get the baby car seat warmed up and tried out, played with their baby dolls in the bouncer and swing. We visited the hospital the other day so the girls could see where the waiting room would be and see the rooms that I would be in, and what everything looked like. Unfortunately, there were no babies in the nursery for us to admire. But, soon enough, Leighton will be there.

We have also looked through albums and pictures from when Jaylyn and Adley were born. They definitely enjoyed doing that. They have also decorated a picture frame with their picture to put in the hospital crib for Leighton to look at. (Jaylyn had done this in the sibling class she took at the hospital last time. It was a cute idea.) And then the other day, we took a trip to Build-a-Bear for the girls to make Leighton a bear. Jaylyn did this for Adley also. Jaylyn was VERY excited. So, come, baby, come!!! We are ready!

Here are some of the Build-a-Bear pictures. . .

Making a wish and putting the heart in.

The bear bath.

Adley and her cheesy grin, waiting to see what to do with this thing.

Brush that bear.

Getting the birth certificate all ready.

Getting her all dressed in the outfit Jaylyn chose. They had lots of fun!
