2 words, one reaction....

8 weeks! And....OMG (oh my gosh).

Yep, we are now less than 8 weeks to go until the anticipated arrival of Baby Girl Lowe. I cannot believe how fast time has flown by the last couple of months. And yet, I am more baffled by the thought of how much we have to do before she arrives!!! We went to Target yesterday and got some much needed storage bins and a closet organizer so I can start to get some things in order. For now, my list of priorities is laundry, followed by going through all of the wonderful baby gifts, followed by more laundry, organizing the nursery, and yes, more laundry!!! But all in all, we are so excited and cannot wait to meet our daughter! Anticipation usually makes time crawl, but I think in this case it will definitely fly by!

My mom hosted a wonderful baby shower this weekend with close friends and family. It was great to see everyone and again, it's humbling to know that all of these people love a little girl they've never even met! She's spoiled already, and bound to get worse. I will try to upload some photos this week, but it may not happen. I have to go through 5 HUGE bags of super cute baby girl clothes a friend (thanks, Shaleigh!!) gave to me this weekend. Per Ben, this particular project must be done by Thursday night, so he can get into the bedrooms and steam clean the carpets before we leave town for Easter weekend in Estes Park. She's expecting baby no. 2, but it's a boy, and her daughter Kendall was always dressed to the 9's - so we are fortunate to get so many wonderful and cute baby clothes. My friends really are amazing.

Wow, only 8 weeks left? Time has flown by! 8 weeks left of complete and total freedom. My advice- spend some quality time together before you two become three!

Sounds like you are almost as busy as you will be in a couple of months. Glad to hear everything is going so well.

Love,
Dad
