Baby girl is due on Tuesday! Owen was 6 days early, meaning she is officially "later" than Owen. On her own terms and timeline...a true girl! Or perhaps, as we like to tease, she hears all the
busyness of her brother and thinks "I think I'll stay in here awhile longer"! We are excited for her to come when
she is ready...and regardless, she'll be "evicted" (I'll be induced) on May 24
th. So we know we'll be holding our sweet new daughter in our arms in 11 days or less. Amazing!
We are ready for her arrival, or as ready as it's possible to be I suppose. Her room is decorated, clothes, burp cloths & blankets are washed folded in her chest of drawers, diapers & all other necessities are purchased & prepared. Owen is still not quite ready to let go of the crib (which we are totally OK with!) so baby girl will be in a
bassinet for the first while...and we hope to transition Owen to a big-boy bed this summer, freeing up the crib for the new baby.
Next blog post will likely be announcing her arrival! Thank you in advance for
everyone's prayers & support during the upcoming labor/delivery and transition to a family of 4!

Our little girl's room - shades of pink & green, with accents of blue, yellow, purple, etc.


And not to be outdone, we took this opportunity to re-
decorate Owen's room, removing the "nursery"
decor and replacing with a safari animal theme!

So excited to meet Baby Girl Gaskins! And congratulations on completing your to-do list :)
The good thing about new babies, is they really don't NEED much. Milk, blankets, diapers, and you're good to go. Hey, she could even sleep in a drawer of the going got tough.
Praying for an easy delievary, sweet disposition, and sleep sooner than later!
Congratulations!!! I heard the good news. God bless you all!!
Looking forward to meeting her and seeing each of you.
