Ahhh…so cute! Congratulations Brydie. I was just asking Celia this morning if she had heard any news of your baby. It is so lovely having a girl (and boys too ofcourse)…something special when she plays with your hair, or advises you on what to wear….boys don’t quite get into that so much. I am sure you will enjoy this amazing journey too.
