Baby Shower

     On Sunday I was so fortunate to have another baby shower, thrown by the amazing group of women that go to Asbury Church. I love how close they've stayed throughout the years, and it was so neat thinking that most of these women were pregnant at the same time my mom was, and they've been able to experience their children growing up together. I hope the same will be true for my friends and I! What a wonderful support group to have!

       The shower was fun, especially with games such as: "Complete the nursery rhyme" and "What candy bar is smushed in the diaper?" --- very interesting to say the least!

 Madelyn, of course, received many new cute outfits. I can't wait to see her in them all! I think I'll have to change her clothes ten times a day at first so I can document all the stylish outfits we have for her, and so she can wear them all!

 Bella enjoyed the adorable outfits as well, before they were washed. (I just had to include this picture, because for the next few days only, she's still our number one baby).

I was so glad to make it to the shower - with only two weeks until the due date I had been getting nervous I wouldn't make it! Now all the gifts are washed and put away and organized in the nursery, so we're getting there! 

 

Now that Summer School is over and we are preparing each day for her arrival, I am starting to have a little less anxiety (besides the fact that I woke up last night and couldn't turn off my brain and laid awake from 3 am - 6 am). 

Although I don't think we'll ever be 100% ready, we are getting there. This week I'm busying myself with organizational projects (currently working on the pantry, then laundry closet!)

 

... What a mess!

This "nesting" thing is great - now I have a million projects that I'm dying to get to!

According to the survey I posted last week, almost everyone voted they thought baby would be coming early. I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon so I will definitely probe her about her thoughts on what she thinks. Either way, she'll be making her arrival very soon, yay! :)
