Baby shower #2



Yesterday a baby shower was held for me at school. It was a lot of fun; very sweet and special. I'm posting pics of the cake, me with the hostesses, and the gift table (make sure you take a look at the diaper bear that my wonderful friend, Alison, made). Some of the gift highlights: several adorable outfits, duck bath towel, washcloths, bibs, spoons, bowls, sippy cups, diapers, wipes, Target gift cards, etc. I have to describe a couple of things my friend, Misty, made. One was a ladybug with a long ribbon attached to it to hold bows/clips. Then there was a box that had a headband with a little ribbon loop on top. The rest of the box was full of flower clips and bow clips to clip to the headband...this girl is going to be so stylish! :)


In looking at the picture of myself, I think I'm starting to look kinda huge! :) We're all the way up to 30 weeks now, crazy enough. I went to the doctor today and Karys's heartbeat was still a little more mellow this time (142), but my doctor says that's fine. I also found out that she doesn't let people go more than a week past their due date (yay!). I really have no complaints at this point in time. Okay, I take that back. The air conditioner in my car is out and it's ridiculously hot outside!! :) But I'm sure all of Texas, pregnant or not, is feeling this!

Ok the diaper bear is to cute!
I can't wait to see pictures of the little one- we'll be moved before she's born :(

How fun! Start bows ASAP and don't give up! ;o) The more you put them in the more she'll get use to them! Little Pumpkin will bring them to me now and say "bo" trying to put it in herself!

Ok, Im being random back to you. I actually got that dress when I was pregnant with Luke. The top is a little akward I noticed!

About Me

My photo
I've been a wife for over seven years, a mommy of one for 2 and a half years, and a mommy of two as of 12/28/10! :) I married Ryan on July 26, 2003. We always said we wanted to have kids sometime around our fifth anniversary. The closer that time came, the more we started thinking we still needed another year. However, God held us to our original plan because Karys Elizabeth was born July 30, 2008...4 days after our 5th anniversary. :) I quit my job teaching kindergarten to take on the much more rewarding "career" of stay-at-home mom. There are some days that are hard, but I love it just the same. God surprised us again in May 2010 when we found out we were having baby #2. I went through the entire pregnancy expecting him to go past his January 9, 2011 due date since his sister was overdue. However, Zane Elliott surprised us by making his debut on December 28, 2010, and we wouldn't have it any other way! Now that we have "one of each" we could be "done" with our family, but hopefully that won't be the case. :)
