Room, Baby Shower!

This weekend was my First baby shower and it was here in Spring. I must say I am soo thankful to have met such a great group of friends and I am so happy they were all there. I don't seem to have a picture of all the girls :( but maybe someone else snapped one. It was so good seeing everyone and A BIG thank you to my Hostess' for throwing such a beautiful shower. It was perfect! I was so nervous the whole time though, I guess i don't feel comfortable being the center of attention. Maybe I should have snuck a mimosa :). Perhaps it is because I don't feel comfortable with the way I look like right now but I know it's all worth it:). My Mom and Archie's mom drove up for the visit and it was nice having them here. I took a picture everything there as you will see. My friend Kim Monogrammed a ton of stuff for Emery. Luggage, bloomers, bibs, burp cloths, etc. I told her she may have opened up a can of worms because now I'm going to want to monogram everything!!! Emery racked up from all the gifts everyone got us. Again I can't stress enough how thankful I am and how much I appreciate everything.

I also included a few pictures of the room being painted and almost finished. We have a few more touches to do but it's just about done and I must say I Flippin LOVE it! The lighting is off in my pictures but you will get the idea. I know I was bummed that the bedding was not the right color pink I wanted but in the end it all turned out so cute. I hope she loves it as much as I do! Love!

3D Ultrasound pics

This morning we got to see what she looks like! It was so neat. I had a little talk with her before we went in explaining to her that I would appreciate some good shots of her. At first she was shy and had her hands in front of her face. Then she moved a little but still had and arm/hand in front of her face but we managed to squeeze in some good shots. Here are a few:

This one is my Fave because she is smiling! We both think she looks a lot like Archie, she has his chin for sure. Hopefully she will take after her mom too!

Key Largo

Remember the song by the Beach boys, "Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go to Bermuda, Bahama, come on Pretty Mama.." Its called Kokomo and was the perfect theme song for our weekend getaway. The plain ride there was a breeze but we ran into some turbulence trying to figure out how to get from Miami to Key Largo. We got our Luggage and began asking around for the "shuttle" to the Keys. After being told different ways by every airport personnel, traveling back and forth three times to the rental car area, we finally decided to just rent a car. I was frustrated and Archie was cursing the world. He was more frustrated that his prego wife was having to walk everywhere and was getting no sure advice. So in the end rented a car and drove the hour ride down to Key Largo. We had a very nice relaxing weekend on the beach. At first I was quite apprehensive about rocking my bikini on the beach and will admit I had an emotional breakdown when I first put on my swimsuit. But Archie was so supportive and made me feel I could wear anything and still be beautiful in his eyes, no matter how big I feel and he is really the only one who matters. So who cares what I looked like to the rest of the beach! Besides after seeing what some of these women were wearing, I was fine. I mean where are these ladies friends to tell them "Girl I think you are a little big for that String Bikini." But hey they had confidence and rocked it!

Usually on our vacations we are Go go go!! But being 30 weeks pregnant you are kinda limited. We called to see if we could go swim with the dolphins but they said No Prego's allowed. I Felt guilty as if I was holding Archie back from exploring but he swore he was perfectly content just laying out and relaxing. SO that's all we did. Eat, Sleep, Tan. Did I mention how I LOVE breakfast buffets??!! How awesome would it be to have that every single morning!

It's back to the weekly Grind and we have plenty to look forward to. Thursday we get to see Emery for our 3D ultrasound. Saturday is my first shower! My great friends here are throwing it for me and I am so thankful and so excited!! I'm Hoping time starts to fly by with so much to look forward to.

Here is a slideshow of the weekend. In one pic I have a pouty look because Baby Hebert was leaving no room to breathe and makes me sooo uncomfortable. Hope all is well with you!
