There’s a birthday coming soon!

Someone is about to have a birthday!

And it’s not this sweet munchkin. She already turned one…when we were in Charlotte last month. I had the chance to photograph and witness first hand her penchant for cake.

It’s too bad she wasn’t adorable or anything.

So anyway, the person with the birthday coming up is my new niece!!! Yes, it’ll be birthday cake and singing before we know it.

My sister is 40 weeks today and went to the hospital just a couple of hours ago to have her baby girl!!! Things are looking up for my sister, who’s had a miserable last couple months of her pregnancy.

Before long, she’ll be cuddling her baby girl, just like this one year old’s mama did a year ago. I’ll keep you updated on Twitter and Facebook through the night and tomorrow, if needed, on my sister’s status. I can’t wait until I can see, cuddle, and of course photograph our family’s newest member!

And if Kitty keeps up the behavior she’s been exhibiting for the past two days, she may give birth to Kitten on the same day my niece comes into the world. I guess only time will tell!

Here’s to a great birthday or two!

    I can’t wait to see picture’s of Hilary’s baby! I am so excited for her! My baby will be coming this month too. I am already 2cm dilated and have been having contractions on and off for three days. Ouch! If she doesn’t come before on her own, I will be induced the last week of May! Cannot wait! Best of luck and prayers to your sister. :-)

  9. Dana J says:

    Easy labor prayers for your sister and Kitty :) Can’t wait to see pics of both new babies!!

    My kitty and a doula client went at the same time once.

  11. Sarah says:

    Pics are great…esp. the one with her feet in the cake! :) I can’t wait to see pics of your new niece. I know she’s going be beautiful, just like her big sister Raven. :) And kitten will be cute too, but I’m sorry, not competing with the precious-ness of a newborn human baby. :) Best wishes to all involved!! :)

  12. Kristina says:

    Mmmm. Cake.

  13. Katrina says:

    Awww….congrats to your sister! Such a fun time, adding on to the family. I would have ten more if I could. Hey…and that would make 19 kids – I’d be tied with the Duggars, LOL. Well, that’s never gonna happen. I’m too old to have 10 more. One more, maybe…possibly two — but ten? Um, not gonna happen ;)

  14. Kate says:

    best wishes to your sister and niece!

  15. Exciting! My younger sister had her 2nd baby 4 days after I had our newest, a whole month ago! good times :-)

  16. Mary says:

    I just don’t see a kitten in that x-ray. I see Kitty’s spine…but no bones belonging to a kitten. If mama’s bones show up, so should the kittens. Especially a fullterm kitten.

    I won’t be a bit surprised to find out that kitten didn’t make it through the delivery.

    • Lisa says:

      You would think a vet worth his/her salt would be able to tell whether there was a live kitten in the x-ray.

      • Sidda says:

        The xrays that I have seen on line of kittens inside a cat I even viewed one where the cat only had one kitten inside looked nothing like the x-ray that she shared. Yes you could see the spine, and yes you could tell that it was a kitten not a white blob.

  17. Carol says:

    GG loves the pics. Many thanks!

  18. Lisa says:

    That little girl is absolutely beautiful!

  19. Kit says:

    LOVE the feet-in-the-cake photo! priceless!

  20. RSiewert says:

    new babies and 1st birthdays are just magical!

  21. SaraSkinny says:

    So sweet! Everyone’s having babies! My sister thinks she might go into labor tonight. She’s only 30 something weeks but she’s been VERY uncomfortable lately. She’s been having contractions today, but no real labor yet.

    I’ll be watching for those new baby pictures!

  22. Corinna says:

    that feet in the cake picture is just too perfect!!!

  23. Anna Lewis says:

    How do you even stand the suspense? Blessings to all.

    Also, I love the new sidebar font, but kind of miss the colors. :) I’m sure it feels good to have something different, though!

  24. Erin says:

    Yeah for babies! Especially human ones ~.
    Much love and blessings~erin
