Introducing Lucy Anne!

July 18, 2019 By Chelsea Lipford Wolf 15 Comments

The 5th Member of the Wolf Pack Is Here!

Lucy-Newborn-Birth-Announcement-3

It is with full hearts and great joy that my husband and I share these sweet photos with our newest family member, Lucy Anne Wolf!
newborn lifestyle photoshoot

She was finally born on May 10th, 2019 at 41 weeks! I was ready to not be pregnant anymore and was induced that happy, sunny morning.

These pictures were taken when she was 6 days old and she’s already changed so much in these past 2 months!😭 Although sleeping more at night is a good change she made.😆

Don’t tell the others, but so far she’s been my best baby. Or maybe we’re just more prepared and aware since we’ve done this twice before.

Big brother and sister are adjusting well, thankfully! Though no one gets called by the right name anymore.🤷🏼‍♀️

Big sister is the most obsessed with her out of all of us. I mean could they be any cuter?!

And unbeknownst to us prior to having these pictures taken, Gus can climb into her crib WITHOUT assistance! Uh-oh!

This might be my favorite picture of all! Since it had been 27 months since I last held a newborn, I couldn’t get over how small her head was! So this is our attempt to capture her small-ness. Even though at almost 8.5 pounds she wasn’t exactly petite!

Thanks to my favorite photographer, Elizabeth Gelineau, for capturing our family in our new chapter! You can check out her favorite photos from the shoot on her blog!

And thanks to you all for your love, prayers and support throughout my pregnancy and delivery! I felt the grace and can’t thank you enough for caring about my little family and my little DIY world!

Thanks for Checking In! ~Chelsea

Happy 3rd birthday🎈to the biggest mama’s girl Happy 3rd birthday🎈to the biggest mama’s girl I’ve ever known! She weighs as much as her big siblings but still likes Mommy to hold her.😜 She’s got plenty of sass and insists on doing everything herself. Which is why she normally has hair in her face and a tornado of chaos all around her. Pretty much our life since she came into it. But the best kind of chaos that grows and stretches you and teaches you to slow down and accept them just the way they are.☺️

Can’t believe it’s been 3 years!🥺

FINALLY painted this eyesore of a wall and finishe FINALLY painted this eyesore of a wall and finished just before dark last night!🙌🏻 My husband and I decided instead of starting a new project (ahem a baby nursery) we should finish the projects we’ve already started. Since baby is due in the summer, it will be so nice to have our backyard up to par so we can rest and relax out there during recovery. ☺️
.
.
We started this project back in October by stripping and scraping the many layers of paint so we could waterproof the bricks and paint the wall to match the house. But the house was painted exactly a year ago. So it was way past time to knock this huge item of the time-do list. And it feels like such a relief to not have to walk by the unfinished-ness every time we come home now!
.
.
Next up we’ll slowly tackle patching hardwood floors and finish painting and replacing our interior doors that are taking up room in our garage.👏🏻

What’s something you’ve knocked off your to-do list lately?!
