Today we had the privilege of "really"seeing our little girl for the first time! We now know 100% that she is a girl and we got to see some of her beautiful facial features. We really cannot wait to meet her! Enjoy the video.

What's in a Name?
Grace Kathryn Lutz
A name- it is part of your identity...something people recognize you by before they know who you really are. For us deciding on our baby girls name was easy and our prayer is that she loves it as much as we do!
Meanings-
Grace: The Grace of God
Kathryn: Pure
If you had asked Jeremy when we were dating what he would name a daughter he would have quickly said "Gracie" he has loved the name for as long as I have known him. Over the past 3 1/2 years of or marriage the name Grace has grown to have immense meaning for us. As our love for one another has grown so has our walk to know God better, both individually and together. We have seen God work amazing miracles in our lives and it is truly by the Grace of God that our marriage is as strong as it is today. Naming our little girl Grace is a reflection of gifts God has given to us and a way for us to openly worship him through our daughter. Our hope and prayer is that our Gracie girl will feel God's grace in her life and lead a life of worship.
When it came to her middle name I never questioned that it would be anything but Kathryn. She is named after my Mom, a women of strength, generosity and compassion; all characteristics that I hope my little girl gains from the strong line of women in her life. When we learned that her middle name meant Pure it fit so well with our prayers for her, that she would keep her heart pure and seek God's guidance in all she does.
We openly tell people her name, and receive such positive feedback of the choice we have made. Some say she sounds like a southern bell, others acknowledge or faith, and others note that she will be a "girly, girl!"
We cannot wait to meet our Gracie Girl!

Nursery
We were excited this week to get the fabric samples for Gracie's bedding in the mail! We are now able to see the fabric in person and pick out a paint color. Jeremy also installed blinds in her room.
Grace's bedding is called Lulu by Glenna Jean.
