Getting Ready for Our Girl

The start of 2014 was a whirlwind!  Little did we know that those 4 months before Tatum would be arriving would fly by SO fast!!!  Sometimes I still get confused as to what year we're in because 2014 came and went in a flash.  These next pics, minus the first one, (I just liked it so I had to put it :)) summarize our time leading up to baby girl's arrival.  

Pelli Christmas Party 2013 {it was freezing!!!}
              

Outdoor bookstore. Yes, outdoor...in January.


This was a snow falling, eating cornbread and chili kind of night.


Getting ready for baby!  Registering at Babies R' Us.  Talk about being overwhelmed!  Thank the Lord for my sister-in-law, Tara, aka--the girl that has all the answers to my questions. ;)


First trip to Sonic in CT.
[just wasn't the same as the one on Main St. G-vine though;)]


Betsy participated in a Yale study and graduated.
We were proud parents.


Betsy LOVES snow.


Our maternity tour at Yale Hospital.  We were SO excited!


I used to collect magnets from all the places that we've traveled to...and then Betsy liked to chew them up.


More snow!!  Thank goodness we could take the Yale shuttle to work.  Made mornings a breeze!!


I like to call this a Pinterst win ;)

Baby Shower

In February, before TK was born, I traveled down to Texas for my baby shower.  It was so much fun and so pretty with PINK!  I was so thankful because the day of my shower the weather was PERFECT.  Nice and sunny, just how I like it.  I needed a break from the cold and dreary weather.  My aunts, sister-in-laws, and cousins and one of my best friends, Emily, threw me the shower and did a wonderful job with all the fun details. They made this mama to be feel pretty special and loved.  I am really grateful for my precious family. They are the best!
