Our Village Means Everything Hey everyone, We’re so excited (and a little daunted!) to welcome our last baby around November 10th. With two kiddos already keeping us on our toes, this postpartum period is going to be a big transition for our whole family—and we’ve realized what we need most this time isn’t more baby gear, but real-life support. That might look like: • Dropping off a meal • Taking the big kids out for some fun • Running a quick errand • Sending a gift card to help us pay for a postpartum doula or cover some basics while Mandi's out of work It’s not always easy to ask for help, especially in ways that feel a little outside the norm. But we’ve learned just how much of a difference practical, loving support can make in those early weeks—and we’re so grateful for our community. While Eric will be home for the first few weeks, we know the need won’t stop there. You are welcome to drop things off anytime, though we’ll be waiting until baby is at least a month old before we have visitors or baby meet-and-greets. Thank you for cheering us on and showing up in whatever way you can. We truly couldn’t do this without our village. With love, Eric & Mandi
