Heather's Bridal Shower

A couple weeks ago was Heather's Bridal shower.
Congrats to her.. only 8 more weeks til her BIG day!!!!!
I hope Baby Boo and I will be there!!!!!!
I have asked him several times to cooperate with me and this wedding:
Heather's wedding 5/7/10 **** Baby Boo's due date 5/8/10









Suzanne handing out the clothes line clips for the "word game"
We were not allowed to say Heather, Brian or wedding. If someone caught you saying one of those words.. your clip was stolen away from you.



Celeste showing me all Heather's presents and her new balloon!



The delicious lasagna that Nicole made for the shower. The "light lunch" was not so light but it was YUMMY!!!


Nicole putting together the bow bouquet for Heather's rehearsal.





Baby Shower #2

Saturday was my second baby shower hosted by Colleen and Sue.
It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed seeing everyone. It sure was nice not to have a snow storm like we had my previous shower.
I am posting photos below.. but I am warning all who view... I am definitely looking preggers!!!
I am glad mom got some photos but I am not too happy with how I look in these photos...
( I am going to be on a mission later this afternoon to find a photo shop button to slim my face and fix my hair!!! hahahaha )



The adorable diaper cake with lots of goodies for little boo.

The fun arrangement made for the shower and looks adorable in my living room. I plan to keep it up for awhile :)



Opening the gift from Rylen... it's a frog bath time coverup for little boo. She picked it out herself.


Sophie playing with Boo's new toy.


Bryan trying out Boo's new pacifier. Later that night, Lou was trying to play with it.
Not sure how this will work... I can see it now...baby has doggie pacifier in mouth while being dragged across the wood floors by Louie who thinks they are playing tug o war. ha!


I love my Aardvark... oops.. i meant Boo's Aardvark. Thanks again Torri!!



A Bopple play mat from my mom.

Shoes for me!!!!! YAY!!! Thank you mom!! I needed some new shoes!!!!
( Grandma got me a special gift also... a pedicure certificate!! Truly what every "mom to be" needs to receive at a baby shower! )


Boo's first JUICY COUTURE outfit. It came with a garmet bag and everything... this will be one stylin' baby leaving that hospital. Me in my new high heels and boo in his juicy sweat suit.

GO CUBS GO!!! Thank you Uncle Matt for Boo's first cubs outfits.


The Bear Rug from Lindsey. It's super soft and adorable. Again... between Boo and Lou... I am sure there will be some fighting over the use of this gift.

The Girls... than you again for making it to my shower!!! I can not wait to hang out with you all after Boo arrives. I have some catchin' up to do... I plan to go out with those pink wigs ladies!!!


Janet, Patty, Sophie and Me


Grandma Long and I

Bryan's mom and I... thank you again for everything Sue. The shower was lots of fun & I can't wait to use the pack n play!!


My grandma and I


My mom and I... thank you momma for everything!!! You have spoiled Boo and I tremendously. I am so excited for him to meet you and to spend a couple days a week with you when I return to work. I have told Boo many times to get used to the shopping trips because he will be going on many with us ( until he goes with daddy to the race track of course) !!!


Rylen, Colleen and I... the hostess with the mostess!!! Thank you again for the wonderful shower and gifts. You made it a very special day and I can not thank you enough.



Bryan and I.. thank you Bryan for all that you do. You will be a wonderful father and I can't wait for you and Boo to meet. I know he will be just as amazing as you and I have looked forward to having your son for a long time! Please continue to have the patience with me as I continue to snore, get crankier and grow larger. Love you.

And lastly.....
Louie enjoying the Baby Bumbo Seat

I told you that Louie will like all these shower gifts! hahahaha
I sure hope Boo is patient and sharing like his daddy because Louie takes after momma.... He tends to think everything is his...hmmm.. not sure why?!?! hahahahaha


Thank again everyone who has kept us in your prayers and to those who have spoiled us with gifts. Bryan and I thank you all and appreciate everything. We are very blessed to have such amazing families and friends!!! Love to you all.

Nursery bedding and new lamp

I love the bedding! It was just what I had pictured... "thank you Grandma and Grandpa"
I didn't take close up photos because the bedding is not completely on.... i am still waiting on that darn mattress.

My $10 lamp from Home Goods.

I like the Yellow with the black and green!!

Nursery ( almost done )

The nursery is almost done... little by little... it's all coming together. I love it!!!
The only new pieces of furniture in this room are the crib and the IKEA wall shelves. Everything else we had and thank goodness we did... that saved lots o' money. The only changes to come are to add my giraffe lamp to the dresser and a changing pad.
Fun curtains will be ordered this week.

Not sure what I will be hanging on the walls yet. As you can see.. some of my "Story People" framings are on the floor waiting to be hung. I want to get the crib bedding together first and hopefully that will be done this week when and if the mattress arrives.

I had fun getting out my old stuffed animals again. There are lots more in the attic but we won't tell Bryan ;)









Oh yes... the closet is full. Bryan will need to get the second bar up soon if Boo gets anymore clothes.
