Unmotivated

It's a typical Saturday, me at home and alfie working. Been up for an hour or two, and besides having some breakfast i have accomplished nothing. Things i need to do: laundry, sweep, mop, finish the curtains for the nursery, write thank you cards, paint some pots. Things i want to do: sleep. I have zero energy. Surely the three mile walk yesterday didnt do this??

But here is to doing at least one thing today... posting some pics on the ol' blog. These are from the shower the club threw us. I am 33 wk 5 days in the photos.

This one is a little cheesy, i realize, but we seriously have not taken many photos while pregnant, so i thought to include it.

Baby shower

Oh man! It was a great shower! I was super excited about my beautiful cake that a friend, katie, made! I swear it was prettier than my wedding cake. We took several pics. Even i brought out my camera to capture its beauty, but then i let Amy do the rest of the photography! She did a great job!

Just because it really was so gorgeous here is another pic. Katie copied the flowers off my invitation, and the tulips are my favorite flower!!

Here is a layout of the gorgeous and delicious spread. My sister was up at 4 am to bake a bazillion scones and drive all the way across town. Thank you so much!!


We had a lot of fun opening gifts.
Except for my niece Jordan, who was not too impressed with the bags that you put dirty diapers in when you're out and about. A perfectly captured moment :)

These are the wonderful hostesses. I like these pics in black and white, even though the azaleas blooming were absolutely gorgeous!

This is a good friend that is due in about a week and a half from when this photo was taken!! Does she not look amazing? She had written on facebook that she was resting her ice cream bowl on her belly, so i was looking forward to seeing a belly, so i couldnt believe how small she was when she walked in. My guess is little J is right at 7 lbs. Anyone else have a guess?

It was a really great shower. We got so many things already!! Alfie has already put the swing together. Everyday is filled with anticipation for the big day. I need to take a belly shot, but alfie and i have been on opposite schedules. We have, my mom, has finished the bumpers and they are adorable. I have to get my slipcover for the chair, and finish the curtains, but then i think the nursery will be pretty close to ready. I will start uploading pics then.

Oh and we did sell the petunia pickle bottom on ebay. I'm glad we did. I dont know what i will end up using, but i think i am going to search etsy before i make any decisions.
