The move has begun

A special shout out goes to Bigger Baby for all the hard work that he put in this weekend moving our entire house around to make way for Katie-Jane. It looks wonderful! Now it is up to me and Nana (Nana really) to put it all together and make it adorable. Pictures will come (hopefully) next week once the work is complete. I promise to take some tonight of the before's so you can see all the progress that we make!!!

I dreaded the move. It made my stomach hurt thinking about it but after all was said and done I am really pleased about the way things are starting to look. What I am NOT happy about...stupid Clover had an accident on one of my very favorite things in the world...my feather bed. So, last night after spending the weekend at Mom and Dad's, confined to a twin bed I tossed and turned because my bed was not swallowing me up in the comfort of feathers and softness. Grrr....stupid Clover. Hold your bladder!!!!

Must add that to the items we must purchase list to prepare for Baby Katie-Jane.

The baby shower for Katie-Jane was wonderful. Monica and Ashley can throw one fancy party and I am the luckiest girl in the world for having them as friends. I LOVE YOU MONNIE AND GUS GUS!!!!!!!! Can you believe that I have known them for over 15 years? For Jill that is a LONG time, seeing as how I can really tire people out. But those two girls love me for some reason...I think it is my wit and charm and therefore deseve a medal for putting up with me for that long. Mom's camera did not have batteries so we have no pictures but I think Gus took a few and will post some whenever she finds time. I was also very happy to spend time with baby Zachary and baby Caroline. Adorable!!!!!

The countdown is on. I cannot believe in just 9 short weeks (maybe less) she will be here! AHHH. I am just as excited as I was when I was about to deliver Owen. I hope Katie knows what an awesome big brother she is about to get. He is the best little boy in the world. I cannot believe God is blessing me with another one.

Enough with the sappy...
As a notice to all my awesome readers, I will be guest blogging on Friday for my girl Kindredly so take a glance over there if you would like. I am not sure what my topic will be...and I am a little nervous. She is an excellent blogger and her blog is actually read by strangers, unlike my blog which is only read by people in the McKinney family and Tobin family (love ya'll!!!), so please wish me luck. I do not want to disappoint her readers and ruin her chances at a book deal.

Until next time...
