We had a bit of a scare last night will our precious little Lillabel! We had gone out to the river at Governor’s Land with a group of William and Mary kids where they were having a Tribe Fellowship (kind of like FCA) gathering. There was a huge turnout including several of Jon’s basketball players who are really involved at church and with Tribe Fellowship.
One of the things that has been by far the most surprising to me since we started Dear Lillie last summer is the amount of requests for bridesmaids dresses and flower girl tutus. Well, actually it isn’t that surprising that we get a lot of requests for flower girl tutus seeing how we sell them, but it continually surprises me how many requests we get for bridesmaids dresses.
As I was moving furniture and taking apart the window seat in Lillabel’s room on Saturday all while trying not to succumb to the morning sickness I was asking myself “have I completely lost my mind”? I mean seriously, her room did not NEED to be painted. Sure, the baby pink nursery no longer seemed to fit my spunky little toddler but I certainly could have a waited a few more months until I was feeling better and I had family in town to help and made it much easier on myself.
Wow! It has been quite a week. Except for the very exciting baby news, everything else has gone very much NOT according to plan! Arghhhh! I was supposed to have all of the children’s screenprinted items back from the printers on Wednesday and then all of the women’s back by Thursday. I was going to try to bring Lillie, Dana, and our new employee Catherine (will write more about her soon!) down to Colonial Williamsburg to take pictures and have them all listed Friday and Saturday.
Okay, so technically there wasn’t a baby in the present. But there were some books about new babies and being a big sister in there for Lillie! We just found out this weekend and told our families and a few close friends, but I was waiting until my doctor’s appointment today to actually write it here on the blog!
Hello Everyone! First, here is a quick update on the screenprinted shirts. They are supposed to finally be ready to go by Thursday afternoon. I think half are being printed Wednesday and the other half Thursday. I will hopefully be able to pick them all up by Thursday and take photos of them on Friday and Saturday and have them listed as soon as the photos are taken.
