Baby, Baby, Baby

Today was all about our BABY! My family gave me a baby shower today and it was fabulous. We had so much fun. The shower was given by my Aunt Kim, Best Friend Jessica, and Sister In-Law Janel. It was held at my Mom's house. I love going to back there, it makes me feel like a kid again, no matter how big and pregnant I am. It was so hot here today so I had to stay indoors most of the day today - hot temps don't mix well with big, fat pregnant girls!!!

Back to the shower... We had so many people there, it was great. Daniel got so many cool things. I must say he is quite loved by his aunt and uncles. This is the first grandchild on both sides (the child has no chance in the world) not only do his grandparents spoil him and boy do they, now his aunt and uncles have chimed in. Of course a big topic of conversation was the size of my belly. Most of my family had seen me Mother's Day weekend, lets just say that I grew a lot since then. Everyone was nice about it, until it came to my feet, they look like footballs again.

I didn't have a traditional baby shower, nothing about me is traditional so why start now!! Instead of decorations, they hung Daniels baby clothes on twine like a clothes line. They found baby pictures of David and myself and put them all around the house. We can't wait to see who he looks like. During my shower everyone there made me a scrapbook. We took Polaroids and they scrap booked there own pages. It turned out so well, it will be something that I will treasure forever. As for the gifts, well I don't think there is anything left on our baby registry! Daniel has just about everything he needs from now until he's at least 1!!

So, we have 5 weeks to go. There is still so much to do. As most of you already know David and I decided that we are going to have a green baby!! To make sure that this really happened we had to become green ourselves. We still have a couple of things that we must do to get everything complete but after that he can come anytime he wants. I must say that I am favoring July 4th, we have talks about this everynight. I tell him before dad reads his book now many more days he has. Sometimes he kicks like he agrees other times I think he's asleep!

Please pray that I have a good week, I am a little worried about the weather being so hot!
