37 Weeks and 2 Days

Tyler, Fox, Morgan, & Mackenzie

The cousins came and played the day before Evie was born. To celebrate the last day of just the four of them they took turns taking pictures of each other. Well, that wasn't the real reason because we didn't know it was the last day of there being only four cousins. They just like taking pictures with the big camera. And you can imagine how many pictures were actually taken. Small children love pressing buttons. The photographer's name is under each photo.

A Baby Shower for Evie and Me, and Just in Time, Too!

On August 5th (Woah! just two days before Evie was born), our delightful friends, Chad and Ashley Nance, threw a lovely baby shower to celebrate our newest Dunne. It turned out so cute, and the food was, of course, so good. Ashley makes spinach dip that I am pretty much in love with. Lot's of people who I love came and we ate spinach dip together, played some shower games, and I felt celebrated and loved. Perfect baby shower! 

 

 Look! My mom got me the diaper bag I wanted. And Evie got some cutie clothes. And I got the video monitor I super wanted. I love all of the things. 

We look like pregnant models because we are.

36 Weeks

We shot a beautiful wedding last weekend or so and Nick took some pics of me to check the lighting and I am 36 weeks along in the pictures...so I am writing a blog post. eh hem.

AHHHH! Oh my gosh, there is a real human inside of my stomach right now! For some reason this is so much more bizarro to me this time then either of the other TWO times I have been pregnant. I think it might be because I can really imagine a new born sized person and it seems huge. I have grown three humans. weird. But also great. I am getting really excited about meeting Evie and labor and delivery and all of those things that will most likely happen in less then three weeks now.  I am starting to visualize three little Dunne's and it seems like it will work out. 

Tyler is excited. When I told that Evie was going to be born in less then a month she was so excited. "WHAT!!" And then a silent scream face followed by clapping. She is going to hold the baby everyday for me. helper. Also in the car the other day she was telling me that she was glad that she didn't have an older brother because she had just played with someone who had an older brother and he turned out to be kind of troublesome, I guess. But then I told her, "Guess what? Evie is going to have an older brother." And she thought that was pretty hilarious. sinister laughter. "She is going to have a big brother and I won't. more sinister laughter. 

Mr. Fox himself, well...I am not sure how he will feel about this new baby. If I ask him where his little sister is, he points to my belly. And of couse he thinks my giant stomach and ridiculous belly button are so funny. But I still don't think he is aware of what is really going on. But I am sure he will love her a lot, right?  

Nick feels excited and happy. He says he is excited to see our family member that he has never seen before. I am excited to see her too.
