Baby Shower

First of all I want to thank Heather for throwing me an amazing baby shower on 08-08-08. I had so much fun and she had every detail covered. We had heavy appetizers to eat and cupcakes from Happy Cakes (my favorite cupcake store). She had wine/vodka drinks for the guests and virgin drinks for me.

One of my favorite parts was that she had everyone decorate a onesie for the baby. She sent them out, in all different sizes, prior to the shower. I am amazed at how creative people are.


I am also amazed at how generous people are. I received so many wonderful gifts. Baby J is VERY LUCKY to have so many wonderful people in her life, and she isn't even born yet.

My mom and sister flew out for the shower too. It was so wonderful having them there with me especially because I do not get to see them that often.


We had a great time shopping for ourselves and for baby, as well as going to the Botanical Gardens and Aquarium. I even took them to my 30 week doctors appointment and my mom cried when she heard the heartbeat.

My doctor's appointment went great. I was told I have a boring pregnancy (which is a good thing). My blood pressure is perfect, my weight is great (up 24 lbs in 30 weeks), and I have no swelling. I now begin appointments every other week and have an ultrasound scheduled for 36 weeks.

The next step is setting up the nursery. I will keep you posted!
