Well Little E here is a picture of the cradle that your grandpa Lacher made for you and any of your brothers or sisters to come in the future. Both of your grandpas are craftsman so I am sure that they will both make you wonderful things over the years.

Well Little E we are waiting for you with great anticipation. There are a lot of people of asking about you and mommy and I are ready for you to come… we will just hold on until you are ready. It is interesting to look at dates and think about when you will be here and if you will come on one of the days that all ready has something special tied to it… I am hoping that you will hit your own day so that it is only a day for you. Looking at the next few weeks here is what we have: (in relation to you)
You come on when you are ready, I just thought you would like to know what dates you are coming around. I am thinking April 4th would be a great day but we shall see.
Love you Little E.

Today is Easter. This is the day that we celebrate the Jesus conquered death and the grave. The Father called out to His one and only Son, arise my love. The sins of this world were poured out onto Jesus so that our sins can be forgiven.
Well Little E you have no idea how many people are waiting to meet you! There are so many excited friends and family… not to mention most of all your mommy and me. Everyone at church telling your mommy how beautiful she looks (which she does) and are asking when you are due. Well according to the due date you are still a week away… we shall see. We know that you are coming when the Lord has planned. We are so excited to meet you.
We Love you Little E

So it turns out that your fussyness might have been mommy eating chocolate day before. I guess we will have to watch she eat and as of now you don’t care for chocolate… I am sure that will change.

Well Little E you have had three showers now and they have all been very fun for your mommy. The ladies at work through her one, there was a small suprise one by one of her teams, and then Jen and Traci had one for you and mommy this weekend. Your grandma Macy come into town for this last one. I was so happy that Erin could have her mommy here to share in this time and experience.
While they were all at the shower Dave and I headed out for a tasty lunch and some off roading… well we did not find the trail Dave wanted to drive on but he still got his Jeep rather dirty. We all just want to extend a huge thank you to everyone that was there and those that could not be, thank you so much for the gifts for Little E. Little E, we now feel like we are supplied enough to bring you home. And Little E want to extend a huge thanks to all of the ladies that held the showers for Erin and you, you are all so precious to us.
Erin and her mom did a great deal this weekend to finish up the nursery for you. All of the cloths and blankets are washed up. All the little toys are put away. We have diapers for you and the creams to keep your little bottom healthy. We have pictures and they will be coming soon…
I guess that any day now little one we will be welcoming you into the world. Your mommy is starting the 37th week of her pregnancy toady. The doctors have told us that if labor start now they won’t do anything to stop it but just let it happen. Tonight we are have another pre-birth class, we will have a chance to tour the maternity floor tonight. The setup here is very nice from what I have seen in the past. It is a far different place from the stable and manger in which your Savior was born in.
Alright Little E, I should get to work today. I am so excited that we will finally get to meet you soon! I Love You!
Daddy

Warning: May not be appropriate for all readers, subject matter includes tales of blood and stitches.
Dumb mistake! That is all that I can say for myself on this one. I was working on building a cornice for the window in the nursery when I had my left hand in the wrong place at the wrong time. The screws for the L brackets were to long for the ½ inch plywood to they stuck through and I was just going to use the hack saw to knock off the extra that stuck through the wood… well I went through the screw end and right into the top of my thumb. After taking a few minutes to compose myself and stop the bleeding I thought that I would be fine and went back to work. Side note, my wife wanted to head into urgent care right away… she turns out to be right in the end. So I finished assembly of the cornice and then we started working on wrapping the wood with the fabric. As we were getting ready to put in the last staple to secure the fabric the rubber glove that I had on over the wound and bandage started fill with some blood. Well after reassessing the wound I decided that she was right and off to urgent care. Three stitches and a tetanus shot later I am all fixed up… well that and 14 days for the wound to heal before the stitches come out. The cornice looks awesome and it really finishes off the decoration to the nursery so it was worth it.
Pictures of the completed nursery to come.
