Blessings

This week Brian's athletic girls and moms threw him and another coach that is expecting a surprise shower!! It was the most precious thing ever. There were over 100 girls and moms present and each brought their well wishes for Coach Lee and sweet Lainey. The girls showered us with love, tons of sweet pink outfits, so many blankets, rattles and tons of diapers. It was so great to see what a loving environment Lainey will be spending her time in. I know she will love going to watch daddy coach if she's got that many girls ready to love on her. :) It was truly a blessing. The girls all wrote Lainey letters and created a scrapbook too. The scrapbook tells her all about her parents that have waited so long for her and how much we love her. It also tells her what a HUGE impact her daddy has had on each of their lives and reminds her to listen to him because daddy knows best. It truly was the sweetest thing ever. Brian works so hard day in and day out when it comes to his job as a coach. He takes time to work with each girl individually and really tries to make a difference in their life. That blessing has come back to us. It was so fun to hang Lainey's little outfits up and get to do some shopping for things that she needs. She is truly going to be one loved little girl!

It's a GIRL!!






We found out today that our little bundle of joy is a GIRL! We are so excited! Her name is Lainey Elizabeth Lee! I'm so thankful that it is a girl because I had already ordered girl bedding without knowing. I found it on sale on Amazon and I just couldn't pass it up. They say you get those feelings, and I just had a feeling she was a girl. I've already bought a few cute headbands at Canton, her bedding & her furniture. Let the shopping for adorable things begin. I am really hoping this summer goes by fast because I'm so ready to meet her. She's a thumb sucker. Every time we have seen her she has had that thumb in her mouth. It is just precious! She's also very active. She's only been asleep once out of the 10+ ultrasounds we've had. We truly are blessed. We are so thankful for this little one! She will be loved and cherished. God is good!

What a week!

El Matador Beach in Malibu

Wade's home for the past year!



15 weeks and counting!





Our little one a few weeks ago! Baby Lee 12 Weeks




My personal favorite, Little Lee's hand! The other one was in its mouth. :) So sweet!






This week has been crazy! We went to Malibu last week for Wade's graduation from Pepperdine. It was a very quick trip, but it was great to see him and celebrate. Malibu was beautiful! I can see why he's had such a great college experience. We were lucky to get to spend some time with all three of my grandparents while we were there as well as my aunt Julie & uncle Jonathan. It was very nice. Graduation was VERY windy! We got to experience Santa Anna winds & we honestly though we were going to blow away. Chairs were blowing away, people were having trouble standing, it was nuts! Beautiful, but very windy. We flew home late Sunday night and then have had a very busy week this week. Today I got to spend some time with my sweet mom for Mother's Day. We went to see my friend Angie's play about Moses. It was good. I am so blessed to have such an amazing mother. I have had a great example of what it means to be a mother and look forward to trying to follow in her footsteps.



This week we get to find out what we are having. I am so excited that I'm hardly sleeping! We've decided on a name for a girl, but are still stuck on a boy's name. We had hoped to have names ready before we found out. It is going to be such a special week. I can't wait to get the news and start decorating the nursery! Right now it smells like baby wipes & I find myself just going in there to hang out. I will love it so much more once it's all set up for our little one. We are so blessed and can't wait to share our fun news later this week. :)
