We have a winner (obviously--I'm assuming you can all read the title of this post, duh) for the fantastically semi-homemade headband featured in my last post.
Here, take another gander at that sucker:
I know, I know, Charlotte is just too sweet and you could kiss her face off. I know. But focus, for a moment, on the cornflower blue headband featuring the largish sunflower. Pretty sweet, eh?
And I am happy to announce that, after some highly scientific methods of determining the winner, Rachel C. is the new proud owner of this fine girly-girl accessory!
Congratulations, Rachel! Rachel is expecting her third baby just before Christmas, and she keeps the blogosphere up-to-date with the goings on of her family of four. I know Miss Kylee will just look simply divine with that bow.
So you, dear readers, can get to know Rachel, too, here is a snippet of her giveaway entry:
This will be my fourth anniversary coming in September (three months from today actually) and as of this coming September, I will have spent three out of four anniversaries pregnant! I think my in-laws think we're crazy.
Ha! I can definitely empathize with her. (Except my in-laws, fortunately, don't think we're crazy. They think it's absolutely fantastic that I have accepted my chief role as Grandbaby Producing Machine. I don't think they want us to stop. Rachel, I honestly don't know which scenario is worse.)
Rachel, I'll get in touch with you about getting you your prize. Congratulations!
And as for everyone else who entered, I'm sorry I don't have more to give away. I promise to do another contest/giveaway soon. Thanks so much for sharing about yourselves and your ministries. I loved hearing from you! I am a little sad that I can't hold Lauren to her promise to make her husband pose for a photo while wearing the headband. Better luck next time, I guess.

Just so you don't think I've dropped off the face of the earth over the next few days, be advised that I am leaving for a week-long trip early tomorrow (Friday) morning. And when I say "early," I mean 4 a.m. Seriously. My mom and I are taking the kids to visit my grandmother in southern Missouri, and we are getting them out of bed at 4, plopping them in the car (where they will hopefully settle back into a deep sleep), and getting on the road. It's a 9+ hour trip, and that's without figuring kids into the equation. At least I don't think Mapquest has that feature. Does it? Because it should.
ANYWAY, we're going to be deep in lazy southern Missouri, where I'm not even sure I'll have the opportunity to post. We'll see. If not, I hope you have a fabulous week. If I am able to post, well then. Stay tuned.

I think MY parents are fine with us being baby machines, and wish we lived closer-no thanks, not a fan of AZ unless it's a visit-but I do think my in-laws think we're insane. Oh well. I love my babies!
I NEVER win anything, so that made me very happy, and made my day! I will take a pic of Kylee in it. Shoot, Elijah likes tutus, so maybe he'll like a picture in the headband too. I'm pretty sure my husband would kill me if I posted a pic of him in a headband though! =)
I hope you have a safe, fun, and relaxing trip with your mom!!! We'll miss you Monday at moms group!
Have a wonderful trip!
Love your new banner :)
Bah -- you're missing out! Maybe next time...
Christine,
Not sure how you got the impression that your in-laws want you to keep having more babies ...
I think three is plenty!!!
