my busy weekend














It has been pretty busy around here as I'm sure you can imagine. I still need to do some Christmas shopping, but I may send Robert out to pick up a couple of things.
I have spent a lot of time at Etsy looking at handmade baby items like, bibs, blankets and burp cloths. There is so much cute stuff to look at, I always get side tracked and then forget what I was originally looking at.

My baby shower was on Sunday. My sister and my mom really knocked it out of the park. Thank you again guys. I will take a couple of pictures to show you all of the hand crafted goodies. My mom made about a dozen each of little pink and blue felt dresses that had a little pregnant bump inside of them. Each guest picked out a dress wear as a pin. One dress in particular had "more" of a belly (a tiny button hidden inside) and whoever picked that one was the winner.
My dad even got involved and made the base for the adorable diaper cake that my mom and Chris made. Look how cute it is. I spent about a half an hour yesterday going through all of the stuff that they packed onto it.
I got a chuckle out of the cake. It says, "Congratulations Jenny, Happy Pushing." Only a mom would love that. I got so many wonderful things, all things that we need. It was so nice to see my friends and family, some of which I haven't seen in awhile. We all had a nice time.
The last picture is a little sneak peek for my card club. Susie's theme was sparkle. Pretty appropriate this time of year, wouldn't you say?
Right now, I am off to Color Me Mine with Harrison to paint a couple of ornaments.

42 days to go!

Your cards are seriously so cute! I am going to really miss having you in the swap this coming year, but I get that you'll have some other priorities going on...

And you are just as stunningly beautiful as ever with that bump of your own- can't wait to meet him/her :)
