I've just recently been following your blog. Found you on Pinterest. I think I read the thing from start to finish in one hour. So excited on the arrival of Harper Eve!! She is beautiful!! Can't wait to hear about her arrival & see more pics!! Just a few thoughts/tips
~ Enjoy her being so tiny, they grow so fast!
~Trust your motherly instincts, always!!
~Breastfeeding is hard at first but stick it out for atleast two weeks, then it'll be smooth sailing.
~Don't loose sight of Jessica!
~Sleep when Harper sleeps!
~Let your hubby help out, even if he's doing it a different way than you'd like him to. :)
~Read to her every night & say a prayer with her. It becomes a comfort for them. (even when she is 11)!
~Love unconditionally!
~Last but not least, smell her, take that sweet baby smell in. :-)

Congrats & many blessings!!
Kelly
