This last weekend some of my close girlfriends threw me a baby shower. It was so much fun to spend time with some of the most fun, and special people in my life. Steph and Kim decorated and made all the food, and the place looked amazing.

Once everyone got there we played a few games, and ate some great food.

One of the games was that the participants had to draw a picture of a baby on the top of their heads on a paper plate, and then I got to choose the best one.

I tried really hard to pick the best one, there were a few that were pretty good.

In the end I narrowed it down to two babies, and Kristen won. Her baby picture was pretty good!

I got some really cute homemade gifts, like beautiful blankets, clothes and booties.


And we got tons of other amazing gifts. Our little girl is so excited to use all these fun things!!

This is a group picture of all my friends that were able to attend my shower.

My mom was able to make the shower too. It was nice to have her there.

And two of my piano students (Maddy and Kate) were able to come with there moms who are two of my close friends.

I have been looking forward to this shower for a few weeks, and it beat all my expectations. I am so thankful for such great friends. I truly do feel so blessed.

Halloween Outfit

Joel and I went to a Halloween murder mystery party tonight, and were supposed to dress up. What is a pregnant lady supposed to dress up as??? And to top it off - I am not a huge fan of dressing up in costume anyway.

Well this is the outfit we came up with...

It worked well for me because I did not have to do much for my costume.

Finally hit 32 Weeks!!

This last weekend I finally hit 32 weeks of being pregnant. This pregnancy is going so slow for me, probably because I want to see her so badly. On Saturday we had a break from the horrible rain that we have been having, and the sun actually came out for a few hours. Joel and I decided to go for a walk at the Finch Arboretum, and we took a few pictures.

This picture of the two of us is kind-of funny because we were using the self timer on our camera, and it looks as if we are really slanted.

It turned out to be a fun day, and was just nice to have a few hours to walk and talk together!

We have one spoiled little girl...

This past weekend I had a baby shower with family and close family friends. It was so much fun to spend time with such important people in my life. Our little baby girl sure got a lot of really fun stuff, and has already become very spoiled. And even though she cannot communicate with the world yet, I know that she is very grateful for all that she received at the shower.

The shower was hosted by my mom and my two amazing sister-in-laws. This is a picture of me and my sister-in-laws (Jenny, Maria, and Me).

The cake... it was so yummy.

My mom and I.

This is the cutest diaper wreath that my sister-in-law Jenny made for a decoration at the shower. I loved it so much that I hung it in the nursery when I got home. Just too cute!

Here are a few random pictures of me opening some of our little girls presents.

Maveric sure enjoyed this little frog that made fun sounds.

The whole day was perfect. Thanks again to all that came and participated. We appreciated all that was given and done for us!

Baby Update

Here are some recent ultrasound pictures of our little girl. I have been measuring a little small, so they wanted to make sure that she was growing properly inside of me.

This is a 3-D picture of her face. It is a little distorted due to the amniotic fluid in front of her face. But we think that she is pretty cute.

Here is a picture of me at 29 weeks pregnant.

Hopefully all will continue to go well and that she will continue to grow properly inside of me. We are getting anxious to meet her.
