Millie is almost here! I can't believe how fast pregnancy flies by when you have another little person to be mom to! I remember being pregnant with Brax it felt like time just stood still! It could be that I didn't do much with myself. haha 15 months have gone by and here we are waiting for this little darling girl to come. :) I couldn't help but post a couple pictures of what I have been doing to get ready for her to come...
When we found out we were having a girl I was soooo excited but nervous because I did not know how I was going to get her ready. The bows, the bracelets, the tights, the shoes, the dresses, the finger nail polish...I am so used to a boy who is so chill to get ready every day (maybe cuz he looks homeless a lot of the time ha)! Since I got back from Christmas break I decided I should get on the whole accessory train and use my not so great skills to stay on a budget. haha So, I decided to make little miss Millie a bow box (that will match her room that she won't have until we move to Omaha)...
Here I made some burp cloths, bracelets, and to make the bows my friend Kayli decided to have a bow making party for me which was SOOOOOO helpful! I had know clue there were so many great ways to make bows! I am so grateful that she helped me finish that project...I don't know what I would've have done if she didn't do that for me :)
And last but not least...I figured that there are only so many things you can pass down from a boy to a girl before you are just a rude mom. So I decided I should make Millie her own blanket that was girlie! haha
Not the best pic
Now. I am sure there are a ton of people out there who could tell me a MILLION things that I am forgetting that she will need. But for those of you who might read this that have a girl and there is something I absolutely, 100%, truly MUST have, tell me!! I am a little nervous she might be coming sooner than later so let me know PRONTO!!! haha 4 more weeks til my due date! Having a lot of contractions though...so maybe sooner (37 weeks would be great!)

How cute are you!! Miss crafty...geez! Love it all. My baby girl doesn't have half of that stuff. Eeek....oh well I guess! Can't wait for baby girl to get her! Please just send a pic to my phone when she gets here! I hope she comes sooner than later too!
Sounds like you are doing good to me! I was all stressed out about it and then when she finally got here I wanted all different stuff. So my advice is just that you will figure out all the accessories as you go! Can't wait for her to get here!
Janelle.. I am so excited for her to get here. You are so talented! Sewing? A real domestic woman! Nice!
