It's Raining!

First, I am sorry I haven't blogged in a while. Things have been so hectic around our house! We have been keeping super busy with baby things, school, work and doctor's appointments. Plus, I have started not to sleep well, so any free time I have is usually devoted to trying to take naps! Although, for anyone interested, Suzi Orman is on between 4 AM and 5 AM on CNN. My insomnia has gained us some very useful financial advice.


Well, this was a big weekend for us. And I want to start off by saying that Gary and I are both very overwhelmed by the generosity everyone has shown us. We have wonderful family and friends... I know that our little boy will be well-loved and will grow up in a supportive, caring environment. It is very much appreciated.


My mom threw us a shower on Saturday. It was at the cutest little tea room in Tomball. The food was excellent and I just love tea rooms! :) We came home with home made blankets, clothes, bottles, diapers and so much more. My family put together a puzzle of an old-fashioned tea room and had it framed with their signatures. It is a very special piece that we can't wait to put up!

Afterwards, we went to Gary's parents house because we had some out of town visitors! Mamaw, Aunt Dolly and Uncle Robert all came in just for our church shower! It was so nice to see them and we had a wonderful family meal. :)

Sunday we had the church shower. Again, we had just a wonderful time. All the gifts were displayed as I walked in and it was such a neat affect. I just have to say I am going to have the best dressed little boy on the planet! Erica put a lot of thought into the shower... six different kinds of brownies! Need I say more! :)





I have plenty of pictures to post; however, since I can't remember a thing these days, I left it at home. The only pictures I have are the ones Erica sent to me (can you tell she keeps track of me and makes sure I am doing what I am supposed to be doing?), so I'll start with these and then post some more a little later (assuming I remember).


Melissa was the winner of the blind-folded diaper challenge! Congratulations!


Me and all the wonderful hostesses from church. Thanks so much, ladies!
