A Grateful Heart

"Be joyful and give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Th 5:18
It's been hard lately to find the words to tell everyone exactly how truly thankful we are for all the wonderful gifts that our baby has received! Jamie and I feel blessed beyond words!

My friends, Melanie and Shannon, suprised us with an adorable play pen this week. So sweet of them!! It has a bassinet attachment that we are going to use in our bedroom to have the baby close by the first week until we get in the routine of night feedings and diapers.



Jaclyn, Gloria and the girls at church threw us a lovely baby shower at church on Saturday and we got many really wonderful gifts for Audrie! The ladies that work in the nursery at church are so excited to be getting a new baby in there soon (there are only 2-3 babies in the newborn to walkers class now).





And Brandon and Erin came over Saturday night for dinner and movie and brought us the stroller and car seat we had registered for!! We just couldn't believe that they did that for us- so awesome! Brandon and Jamie spent some time putting it all together. Naturally Erin and I had to give a little useful input to keep them on track... :)


... but they got it all together and we can't wait to see Audrie coming home in her car seat for the first time.

A million thank you's to everyone who has been so generous and excited for our first little baby!
