Today & Adelynn's Room

Obviously today is Mother's Day and I am incredibly thankful for the blessing of being a mother...like none other...but as you can imagine, today was also a bittersweet day for our family because we just miss our sweet little Tucker.
We hung out with my parents for lunch then met up with Amy and Nate and went to "Tucker's Park" (as it's come to be called with our boys) to leave some pretty flowers and feed the ducks. Overall, I left with a full heart, felt God's presence around us and Amy and Nate today, loved spending time with my mother, and felt the anticipatory longing of Heaven.

An update on Adelynn's arrival:
Saturday we happened to be in Siloam (where we are delivering) for sweet Ellie's 1st birthday party, and I had contractions all morning through the party. As we were leaving, I decided to call my doctor to see if he wanted me to get checked since I was there. He did, and so we hung out in the hospital for about an hour or so (watching "Knocked Up" of course) while they monitored me. I was definitely showing contractions, but there weren't changing my uterus (sorry I just used that word on my blog), so we left with peace of mind.

What's great about Siloam hospital and why do we keep delivering there even after we moved to Bentonville? Because the nurse who dealt with me on Saturday remembered everything about me and helping deliver Noah more than 2 years ago...it was awesome. She literally remembered details. She gave us a tour of the brand new hospital - literally opened 3 weeks ago - and it made us all giddy excited!

While we were there, through conversations with her and my doctor and some other circumstances, we decided to move the date to Thursday...3 more full days and then on the 4th day, we're headed to meet our baby girl! Oh.My.Goodness.

Oh and that awesome nurse who remembered us? She called me personally today to reassure me they have everything set for me to come in Thursday. Love her.

My little sister got me a carseat cover I had been wanting from Etsy for Adelynn and it came in today! It was perfect. Perfect fit and even cuter than I remembered it being when I ordered it!

And then I thought I'd share a few pics of the nursery/guest bedroom. Yes, we stuffed a queen and a crib in there so it's a little crammed, but Jason's family comes to stay quite a bit so it works! It's not completely finished...we have some wall/ceiling touches to add this week, but here's a preview:
