The Nilsson's Welcome Baby Juliette. . .


And Rosie, Minnie and Tulip.  Sorry about the continuing jokes about the baby!  I just cannot help myself. . .bwah ha hah!  It is just to easy to make jokes when you are in your final weeks.  But the real announcement is:  We finally got our chicks and they are so cute!  Lily loves to check on them everyday and I am starting to think this was a really good transition to prepare her for the baby.  We loved picking out the little babies and Lily loved playing with the Mama's and Aunties on the 'chicken farm'.  For now, we have the chicks inside (hence the weird heat lamp picture) but soon they will be able roam the yard and sleep in the new coop (still to be completed).  We hope by the end of summer to have some nice, fresh eggs in a rainbow of colors.

That is so fun! Mikey would be jealous to know you have baby birds.

mmmkay, that wasn't funny I totally got that hottish/sickish feeling of anxiety.

And now that I'm calm...happy chickens.

I almost shouted out loud "Oh my gosh Megan had her baby!" when I saw the title of your blog post on my sidebar update. Unsure why I felt relief when i saw it was chicks. But fun that you have chicks, all the same. Also love that you have crossed off some things from your list. Love you and thinking about you, and wish we were closer so that I can meet baby N when he/she does decide to make an appearance.

Still love you. Good work on the list.
