Countdown

Today we made an advent chain (like the ones we made leading up to Christmas as kids) to countdown the days until the September fifteenth due date. Melanie used a different kind of paper for each of the forty-four rings and it turned out really nice. It was just a fun project, but seeing the chain really amplifies all of the excitement as well as the nervousness we are feeling. 


The final ring says happy birthday, but of course there is no way to know when the little one will actually come. We are just hoping for a healthy baby no matter when it happens.
