Awaiting the arrival of Bella

We have had a little scare with preterm labor a few weeks ago so my mom, aunt Frances, and father-in-law Bill have flown in to await the arrival of Bella a little earlier than previously planned. It has been hugely helpful to have some help during this time that I am supposed to "rest" to help keep the contractions at bay. Everyone has been here for a week and I think that they are exhausted from all of the unpacking, cleaning, and settling in that they've been doing. By the time the baby gets here we'll ALL be suffering from exhaustion!

Taylor is having a FANTASTIC time having all of these new playmates here staying in her new house. She likes to take Papa outside to play in the back yard. She likes to take Nanni out to play with bubbles. She likes to harass Maw Maw for food. She'll be so sad when everyone leaves, but maybe she'll be so entralled with Bella that the transition won't be that bad.

Y'all be praying for us as we await Bella's arrival. Please pray for a quick, safe, and as pain-free as possible delivery.
