Cedar Fork School Baby Shower

This past Tuesday my grade level threw me a school baby shower. They themed the shower around my due date, July 4th. The decorations and the food were red, white, and blue. They did an awesome job. Thank you so much for all of your hard work. You made me feel so special!

Raleigh Baby Shower

Last weekend my sister threw me my very first baby shower. She did an absolutely incredible job! She spent a lot of time planning yummy food and a fun craft to do at the shower. We had a wonderful turnout and everyone had a really good time. Thank you to all of my friends for helping me celebrate such a special time in my life. Thank you to my sister for putting the shower together and spending many hours planning and preparing. Thank you to my mom for helping out my sister, even though you have a lot on your plate. Thank you to my aunt for traveling down from New York to celebrate. I enjoyed spending time with everyone!

Prego Changes: The Top Ten

10. My belly button has decided to play peek a boo with me.

9. Some of my walking technique can also be confused with a duck waddling.

8. The hair growth on my belly resembles porcupine quills....minus the sharpness.

7. Fiber....I need lots of it! And it still doesn't work...It's supposed to be worse right after the baby is born. I am not sure how this can possibly happen.

6. Toes? Am I supposed to have them? I haven't seen them in about two months.

5. A requirement to putting on shoes is that I must hold my breath when bending over.

4. Front hugs no longer work...I've resorted to the side hug or the "stick your butt way out to make room for the belly" hug.

3. I have adopted the grandma rock when trying to get off of the couch. 1, 2, 3, up...

2. Who said rolling out of bed couldn't be sexy? I beg to differ.

1. Cankles (and I'm talking elephant stumps) are my new fashion statement. Don't hate...I know you are a teensy bit jealous.

Our Little (Chubby) Man

Today we went and got a 3-D ultrasound done. It was such a cool experience. Here are a few images for you to enjoy until I can spend time on a longer post. Our son has chubby cheeks, long legs, plump limps, and is definitely a boy. I'm so in love already...

Aaron started to talk to him and he began to smirk

Another smiling moment because of Daddy

His face was squished up against my belly so his nose is a little smashed, but check out those cute lips!

By the end of the session, he was done. He was tired of performing and said enough is enough...
