a little announcement

It is with extreme happiness and excitement that Nick, Peyton, and I would like to announce that...

Peyton is going to be a BIG SISTER!


We are so beyond thrilled, especially Peyton. I can't even tell you how many times a day she asks me "So, Mom, how's the baby?". It is the absolute sweetest thing. I know that she is going to the be the most wonderful big sister to this little one.

I'm currently 12 weeks, turning 13 tomorrow - meaning we are due March 6th.
(Which means two March birthdays for us! Peyton's is the 29th.)
Hopefully I'll be able to keep up with some weekly bump-dates around these parts!

Love,
the soon-to-be-Momma-of-two! (EEK!)

Save the Date!

It's officially official! The Save the Dates have (nearly) all gone out and been received by guests-to-be. I keep getting a select few back because the post office can not read them with how I had them addressed. (Total ridiculousness if you ask me.)

We ordered these magnets (magnets!) from Shutterfly and they could not have been more perfect. 

I can not believe that there are only 128 days left to go.

Seriously, wasn't it 365+ days to go just last week?

In addition to mailing out the Save the Dates, we finalized our contract with our photographer/videographer as well as our officiant - both of whom, we absolutely love and can not wait to work with! My dress is purchased, shipped, arrived, tried on, and awaiting final alterations (to be done closer to the big day), Peyton's flower girl dress is purchased (we bought the one the salon had in stock since it fits her so perfectly), and 2 out of 3 bridesmaid dresses are purchased and ordered and (hopefully) on their way to the bridal salon soon! AND there are tons of ceremony/reception decorations purchased and tucked away (thank you, Momma!).

Next up: design/pick/order wedding invitations!

Wedding planning is exhausting, buuuuuut --
I can't wait to be your "Mrs.", Nicholas.
I love you!
