January...the waiting game :)

Mark & Mo try to stay warm since Mama won't turn on the heat. Don't worry, Darla is still warm!
Mama and Darla in the nursery.

What's he doing, you ask?!?! "I'm trying to experience how the baby feels right now," says Daddy. Haha!

Nursery is ready...she still has two or three weeks to grow. Can't wait to meet her!!!
