One Month

I can't believe that Kate is already a month old! She is growing so fast; she is now 7 pounds, 14 ounces and is 20 inches long! I'm amazed at how much love that I feel for this sweet little face. This was her first "photoshoot"; she liked getting her picture taken.  

Kate's Room

Kate's room turned out better than I expected; it is perfect for her! Jon and my step-dad put the board and batten up and painted (which I can say picking out wall colors is so hard! We had 7 samples on the wall but once we found "the one" it was perfect) I'm so glad I have very talented men in my life.

The Last Belly Shot

This was the morning of my c-section. We were so excited and nervous! 

We are all ready to go!

I loved having her in my belly but having her out is so much more amazing! 

My First Week

Kate's first week was a great one! We love being at home and are getting adjusted to our new life. This is how we spent our time.

Baby Kate is here!

Kate's Shower

I had such an amazing shower! I'm so blessed to have family and friends who spent the day with me celebrating this little girl!

Thank you so much Bethany for taking these beautiful pictures!

Thank you to Angie, Jeanette, Audrey, Bethany and Kristin for planning and hosting my shower! It wouldn't have been as beautiful and yummy without all of you!

Kristin's Shower

One of my best friends is pregnant too! It has been so fun getting to go through the fun and not so fun parts of pregnancy together. She is a beautiful mommy to be!
