A is for Anticipation

Well, here it is!  My first post for the Blogging A to Z Challenge this April!  I've posted about it before so I'm not going to waste valuable blogging space on it again.  Just a quick review of my theme.  I've decided to take a picture each day of something beginning with the day's letter and blog about that.  I love blogging and taking pictures so it's right up my alley!  I'm stoked about this challenge, blogging and finding new friends so let's go!


Anticipation about Stella obviously.  The house is a mess whirlwind of baby prep, much of it pink!  It's unusual for us to have so much pink, purple, lace, and frill around but we are slowly getting used to it.  The most recent preparation we've undertaken has been installing the gate at the top of the stairs.  The boys and I had fun working on that together yesterday.  Any excuse for us to use our tools and feel manly!  As the photo shows: bedding, clothes, diapers, bows, and so much more are accumulating as we get ready for Little Miss to join us here.  Just 8 more weeks until Amy hits 36 Weeks (the longest she went with either of the boys) and 11 weeks until our 30 Week scheduled c-section.  We'll see which comes first.  Until then though we continue to prepare, physically and mentally, for our newest blessing!


So much done, but so much left to do!

All is well, beginning the challenge, in Drosche Land.
