Showered with Love

This past weekend my mom & sister hosted a baby shower for my side of the family and some close friends. I can think of no better way to spend an afternoon than being surrounded by the ones I love and celebrate this wonderful time in my life. Kudos to my mom & sister for coordinating a wonderful and fun afternoon. They did an awesome job!

 

I was overwhelmed by everyone's outpouring of love and generosity. The "peanut" is truly blessed to be welcomed into such a loving group of people. A huge thanks also goes out to those who traveled such a long way to be there for the occasion. It really meant a lot to have them all by my side on such a special day. And another huge thanks goes out to my friend Katie of SugarPrints Photography for capturing the day in photos.

29 Weeks

TRUTH: Pregnancy sucks the life out of you and makes you tired and also makes your brain turn to mush.

9 months sounds like an eternity but apparently it's not. I've officially entered into the 3rd trimester. My body now feels like a sausage casing. I know, lovely description, right? I find myself forgetting things mid-sentence, which I am sure has done wonders for my professional career. Proof that my brain has gone to mush...without missing a beat, I used the word "enlargen" in a sentence (I meant enlarge). And yes, I am a college graduate. Hold the applause, please. 

Overall, I am still feeling pretty good. Believe me, I have definitely had my moments, as the husbo can attest to :) But I really can not complain.

I've been lazy with taking belly progress pics, no surprise there. Here I am at 29 weeks. Please excuse the creepy work bathroom pic. And no, I am not holding my crotch, I am trying to hold my shirt in to make it appear less tent-like.
