Okay so another busy week

I know I said last week was my last busy week but I was a little confused. This is my last big work week before I get a little down time before our little nugget gets here. I have a shoot everyday this week which I am excited about and then I have my last wedding this coming weekend here in Little Rock. Britney and Mom have been amazing. I think they are nesting for me :) We have been organizing and getting all of Mamie's clothes and blankets washed. While Britney went through and laid out what I need to pack for the hospital I went through all the maternity clothes that people let me borrow. I am going to get those washed and returned this week. One more thing off the list :) While I was gone to a shoot Mom and Brit kept working away and finished organizing the closet that Taylor finished out. They also cleaned our garage, planted flowers and organized the laundry room. They have been awesome, I don't know how I am going to thank them for all of this. The nursery is soooooooo close to being finished. We are still waiting for the drapes and the cushions for the rocking chair and Mamie's little chair. I can't wait for those to be here and then we will be good to go. Well except we have a shelf we need to spray and hang oh and get her initials hung as well. I am holding of and am going to get a large gallery wrap of our sweet girl to go over the changing table. Here are her shoes. Aren't they so cute This is what we have decided to bring her home in. Isn't it beautiful. Mamie you are going to look like a little angel baby in this. I hope to have my good friend Ben photograph the homecoming. I laugh just thinking of me and Taylor getting her in the carrier and out to the car. I know we will be so nervous. We are so excited. She is going to be here so soon. I can't wait to snuggle up with her. -Sarah

Introducing Mamie's Poppy Plates

As you all know, I am Mamie's mom, and Mamie was my first child. I was pregnant with her from October 2008 to June 25th, 2009 when she was born a sleeping angel (stillborn) two and a half weeks before her due date. Stillbirth and infant death are realities that too many parents face even today. Did you know that each year 1 in 115 babies delivered is stillborn? And 1 in every 102 newborns die before the age of 28 days old? Now, a year after losing Mamie, I have started Mamie's Poppy Plates, my organization providing keepsakes for parents who are not able to take their babies home from the hospital. Because handprints and footprints are something that we cherish as parents of children in Heaven or here on this earth, I wanted to find a beautiful way to preserve such a precious reminder of our babies. Your donation of $13 will provide a plate to bereaved families who are delivering at St. Vincent Hospital. Their baby’s birth stats, hand and footprints will be stampe...

VBS

Burke and Winnie just finished their first Vacation Bible School and they had a blast.  I did as well :)  I got to help in Burkes class which is always really interesting.  There were about 20 3yr olds in there so it was WILD :)  It was a fun 3 days of learning about how God is our light.  We sang "This little light of mine" everyday and Winnie is trying so hard to sing it.  She walks around the house with her little pointer finger up mumbling.  I love it. - Sarah Winnie eating the stickers instead of putting them on her art piece :)
