Get together with
OBU friends to celebrate Catherine's upcoming birth, Tate's upcoming birth, and Josiah being
adopted into the
Gett family.

Baby shower. Thanks to everyone who came and made the day so special.
Natallia's handiwork: a baby carriage watermelon!

A mobile from dear friend Lee. She brought it back from Thailand when we went home for a
visit over the summer.

I wanted to include this picture because I was proud of thriftiness. We got the changing table on
craigslist for $30. I covered cardboard boxes with some canvas I found on clearance for $5. spray glue adhesive and spray paint to touch up the table made the grand total $42 :).

Cloth diapers. so far so good. Looking back, we shouldn't have gotten any newborn size since her legs were so so so very skinny they just wouldn't cinch tight enough. We have loved the regular size though, and
especially love not having to run to the store for diapers all the time.

These two dresses were mine when I was a baby. I couldn't wait for her to get here and wear them. :)

Megan had these made for us. Perfect for homecomings!

Grandma Mary Caye made these out of family heirloom handkerchiefs.

And Grandma Mary Caye made this for Catherine too.

This quilt was given to me when I was a young child. It had been well-loved for almost 30 years and therefore needed a bit of a makeover.

So Mary Caye and I worked for about 2 days....

to make the crib bumpers and quilt!
