You know what that means??? Only a couple more months till baby, about 7 1/2 weeks to be exact! To say Ryan and I are anxious would be an understatement. At the rate time has been flying she'll be here before we know it. The nursery is coming along and besides the dresser and some final decoration details, we are all set. I had my first of two showers this last weekend, April 11th, with family from both sides and friends. There was an amazing turnout, about 39 people including my sisters! It was great that everyone could come, and so nice to see everyone. My sisters threw the shower for me at my parents house, they did a fantastic job. Thanks girls!! As you can see from the pictures, the amount of gifts I received was overwhelming. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Besides all the adorable clothes, we received blankets made with love, a pack'n'play, walker, floor play mat, bouncer chair, nighttime crib soother, car seat, stroller, and lots, lots, more. My sister Pam also had this really good idea: she bought a bunch of the Little Golden Books and had everyone take one and write a note to the baby on the inside. So she's got a nice personalized collection to look back on for years and years. Such a great idea Aunt Pam!
I added another picture of the nursery with the rest of the painting complete. I'd like to thank my mom and mother-in-law for helping finish. They'd been hassling me for awhile, so I said, "fine, go ahead and finish". I have to admit, it was a relief to just have it done. My dad helped a little too! Ryan is starting to work on the dresser, it needs to be painted and then I can start filling it up with clothes.
My brother-in-law got engaged last weekend to Sara!! We are so excited for them!
