Harper's Modeling Debut!...Thanks Bella Baby & Nellie Smith Photography!








She would not give the pacifier up for anything!



My precious baby girl!




Don't look too bad for being sleep deprived at almost 2 weeks old! Ha!



Love the naked baby pictures!

Finally...all the pictures from our birthing experience!

Checked into Labor & Delivery and getting ready to go!

After 21 hours of labor...we are off to have a c-section.

Harper's entrance into the world! The doctor on the right is actually a friend of Andy and I, Dr. Kohlenberg! Dr. Martin is on the left...we love them both!

So I am over 40 weeks...Where is this baby??

I had my 40 week appointment on Tuesday and I was not dialated! Darn it! Dr. Martin and I set her  "eviction notice" for Sunday, Feb. 26th. Mommy and Daddy are getting a little more nervous now that there is a little one that is about to enter our life!! We will let everyone know when she arrives and when we are settled for visitors...Can't wait to start the next chapter in our life!

36 Weeks! Oh man!

Only a few weeks to go!

Beil Family Baby Shower!

On January 14th, Katrina (Aunt) and Kiley (Cousin) of Miss Baby Beil threw a wonderful baby shower! We had a great turn out, great food, and GREAT games! The shower started by everyone grabbing some munchies (cookies, fruit, and dip..yummy!) and we all sat and socialized. Katrina began activities time by having little white onesies and fabric markers so everyone could decorate a personalized onesie for the new little miss! What a cute idea..they turned out great! We then played 'Price is Right' by trying to guess if certain baby items were higher or lower price than the listed price that Katrina wrote on an index card sitting in front of the item. We had a heated battle and we ended up having 3 winners! Whoo hoo! Then it was gift time...and boy were we blessed in this department! Baby Beil got tons of awesome gifts from such loving and caring family members and friends!  Thank you to everyone for making this day so special for Baby Beil and Mommy!!

All the little onesies that all the guests decorated for Miss Baby Beil!

Cookies...and fruit...and chocolate dip! So Good!

Diaper Cake made by Aunt Kati herself...so cool! Baby Beil is so lucky to have such an awesome Aunt!

Even the kids got involved in the festivities...Cousin Grace (Left) even helped Aunt Lindsay open the gifts for her new baby cousin...such a good helper! And future babysitter!! Whoo hoo!

The Loot! So blessed!



Our favorite neighbor lady, Carol, sure got a little crazy shopping for the new little one.  I think she is excited to have a new baby next door..maybe I can talk her into midnight feedings?!?! :o)

Cousin Kiley helping me get the presents openned...it is getting a little hard to bend over that far anymore! Especially after eating! Yikes!

The coolest Zebra pillow/blanket/stuffed animal from none other than our resident biologist and animal-lover, Grandma Mehlhaff! Also got us our stroller travel system to go exploring! Awesome gifts..thanks Gma and Gpa Mehlhaff!!


Grandma Beil kept alot of Andy's old blankets, books, toys, and clothes! It was so neat to reminisce with everyone...she even had the outfit he went home in from the hospital! No offense gma, but I think we are going to have to go with a pink outfit on our way out of the hospital! :o)


Andy's (and cousin Aaron...Ashli's brother) sports number through our high school days was #18! So cousin Ashli made us a onesie in his honor!

See the 'Hula' onesie created by our "Hawaiian" Grammy, Val!

Grandma Mehlhaff, Cousin Kiley, and I checking out the designs!
