Very blessed

I have just realized that our unborn daughter is very blessed with everything a new baby needs this side of the world. Looking in the closet the other day, I counted 35 outfits for months 0-3. In addition, there are 20 little outfits for months 4-6 and another 20 or so for months 7-9. Not to mention that little Ruth has 20 little dresses to fit her in months 10 to two years. What is surprising to me is that we haven't bought her any clothes except for two little onesies. One says; "Daddy did my hair" and the other sports our nfpcharting.com logo on it. Lawson took a glance at the "Daddy did my hair" onesie and commented that he had better make sure Ruth's hair looked good when she wore the outfit. I said he probably wouldn't have to worry too much because we both have a history of bald babies during the first year of life. Since I was bald at birth and Lawson had barely any hair to speak of, I decided to register for those cute head bands that wrap all the way around the head. Honestly, I was floored that we received NINE of them at the church baby shower. So, little Ruth will be decked out in a new outfit all the time and to boot, look very cute with an elastic head band on her little noggin.

Now that the weekend is here, I am getting more excited since our anniversary is next week on the 11th. It is hard to believe that we've been married for THREE YEARS! Since choir takes place on Wednesday night, we have decided to celebrate the night before and go to Folk's Folley Restaurant in Memphis. I have never been there and have heard that it is relatively expensive. We are going all dressed up which makes the experience even more different and wonderful! It will be a time to reflect on the past, eat food that is arranged spectacularly on our plates and relish the last BIG DATE before Ruth comes to meet us.
