Baby Shower

This last Saturday my wonderful sister threw me a baby shower. I had so much fun. Thanks Andy for putting that all together and to all those who helped make it so special. We even played my favorite party game, the dice game (in a nutshell the goal is to roll doubles and then you get to pick out and steal prizes from others once you roll a double). Growing up I went to a small country church which never failed to play the dice game at any baby shower, bridal shower, or other ladies get together. Grace is also now very well outfitted and ready for bath time (I must admit all the bath stuff was so cute I may have added quite a lot of towels, washcloths, even an inflatable ducky tub to my registry at Target).

Here are a few pictures for your viewing pleasure:

Both my grandmas were able to come. I love them both!


Here is a picture of the yummy cake (we are actually going to spell her middle name Elisabeth)

Then came the task of starting to organize the babies room. I think being 30 weeks along may signify time to start putting the nursery together. :) So Sunday after church I went through most of the clothes I have been given and I am so excited to get to dress my little girl in all her cute outfits. I then went to Lowes and picked out the paint color, a soft cheery yellow. I think I may begin the painting process this weekend (with Joe's help of course). But things are coming together. Grace constantly lets me know she's there by her kicks and somersaults which I absolutely love. I can't wait to meet her. Only 10 weeks to go. Below is a picture of me at 29 weeks.
