...Until Miss Cate arrives. Well, if she decides to be on time! No Braxton-Hicks, no swollen limbs...nothing yet.
Some pictures from the YM/YW BBQ on Tuesday night:
Frisbee time with Dad
I'm ready to catch it!
This past week I've gone through Lizzie's newborn and 0-3 mo. clothing to pick out what Cate can use. Onesies and socks made the cut--everything else is much too wintry for our summer lady. Some outfits I can use (I hope!) once fall and winter roll around. I also organized the girls' closet; one side belongs to Liz and the other side belongs to Cate.
Side Lizzie--like mom, like daughter--we love shoes :)
Side Cate--can't wait to see these cute outfits on little lady!
Lizzie got a big kick out of seeing the newborn booties and shoes; she tried putting them on her own feet! She also saw a pair of Winnie the Pooh pants she had once worn and fell in love because she knows who Winnie the Pooh is now that she's older!
We bought a bassinet for Lady Cate. It comes with pink girlie ribbon but I told my mom we'll have to go to Michael's and get some fun ribbons and bows; I want some blue, green, and purple ribbons/bows to match her crib bedding. We're putting the bassinet in our room for the time being. We hope and pray that she learns from her older sister, that she will start sleeping through the night early on. Once a good routine is established, we'll have them both in the same room. We have rearranging to do in both bedrooms and I look forward to it! Not like I can actually physically move any furniture around, but you know what I mean.
Chris and I went to the temple on Saturday--a big thank you to Uncle Joe and Aunt Julia for babysitting Lizzie for us! Soccer dominated the rest of the day, both on TV and in real life. Chris played keeper later that night in the ward game and he did wonderfully! Lots of saves by him and lots of cheering from me!
Lizzie turned eighteen months old yesterday! What a big girl! You all know what that meant...NURSERY! She ran into the room and didn't look back. But twenty minutes later I get a "Lizzie won't stop crying" so I check it out. Once Liz realized Chris and I left, she got a little sad. No worries, though. She sees these kids every week at playgroup; I think seeing them in a church classroom was a bit different for her. They have a fun routine in her nursery class and I know she'll enjoy it more and more in the coming weeks.
We stopped by the Willis house later that afternoon and we had a great time, as always! Of course I brought my camera but of course I didn't take any pictures, but the kids had a fun time playing together. We will hang out more this summer before the Willis family takes off for Switzerland!

Look at you go, Mommy! Way to be on top of things. :) Hopefully Liz isn't so attached to Pooh that she won't let Cate wear those pants. But maybe she can introduce Cate to the wonderful world of Pooh. Take it easy and enjoy these last two (?) weeks!
Hopefully the time will fly by fast!!! We are excited to meet Cate!
Love the pics and I am serisously so excited to see little Cate! I love new babies! It was so nice to see you on Sunday- we don't do it enough :( You did get your camera out once, but remember I stopped you because I wanted to fix Afton's hair? You can blame me!
