A Baby shower for Greyson

A Baby shower for Greyson! 
My friends threw a baby shower for our growing family
this past Saturday and we had so much fun!! Here are
some pictures of the lovely day!
 They decorated everything in navy and green! 
The colors went along with his nursery! 
They had yummy cupcakes, meatballs, fruit, veggies,
and cookies! Everything was delicious!!
 The red velvet cupcakes were my favorite!!
They were decorated with navy chevron and
little Gs on top! so precious!!
 There was a fun diaper cake with batman socks
and pacis that said prince charming and stud muffin!!
He will totally rock those!!
They also had a wishing tree where the guests wrote
wishes for our little family and placed them on the tree!
I loved ready them and will keep them safe in his baby
book for him to cherish when he is older!
 I wore blue to the shower of course!
Blue for our little boy!!
29 weeks along here!
 Mom and I at the shower! 
She is very excited to be a Grandmother!!
 Aunt Penny came into town for the
weekend to celebrate with us!
We enjoyed having her here and she is thrilled
to be a great aunt!!
 My sweet friends and amazing hostesses!!
Wendy, Staci, and Amber love these ladies
and so blessed to have them in my life!!
 Jessi and I! She has been walking with 
me throughout the pregnancy and we enjoy
our little talks together!! haha!
 Time to open presents!! 
We played a few games which were really fun!
We guessed mystery items in brown lunch sacks, 
unscrambled nursery rhymes, and guessed Ross' 
answers on questions they had asked him about
the pregnancy! The games were really 
enjoyed by everyone!




 Luke's running buddies! 
Jessi, Laurel, and Monica
 Bari and Nora! 
Nora will be chasing around 3 little boys
in 2014!! They will surely keep her busy!!
On Sunday I hit 30 weeks with Greyson!!
10 weeks to go!! Wahoo!!
We have a few more things to hang up
in the baby room and 2 more baby classes
to attend! We are excited the holidays are
just around the corner and have a few dates
planned just the two of us!! 

This week we purchased the baby car seat
and stroller! Babies R Us was having a
great promo so we jumped on board!!
We got the BOB Revolution SE stroller!!
I am so excited to have this stroller!!
It will be a great tool for jogging with the
little one around the block! It's like an early Christmas
present for us!!We will have to get the car seat
installed in the next couple of weeks
to make sure its safe and ready for our little
baby boy!!


Late night kicks!

Wednesday, November 6, 2013
29 Weeks!! Wow time is flying by! 
This weekend was the time change and I was ready 
for it to be brighter at 7 am so I can take my nice
long walks before work! ha! On Saturday night
we went on a date night out to Chuy's which
was nice since we haven't been out just the two
of us in a while! It was really loud and I felt old
since I just wanted some peace and quiet but the 
food was yummy and my date was super cute! 
We headed home and cuddled in bed trying to
watch a movie in bed while we rested...well of course
I pass out immediately!
Then around 2 am or 3 am Preston got sick
and so Ross got up to take care of him.
I was wide awake then and started moving
side to side to get comfortable and I could 
tell the baby was kicking. Ross has been trying
really hard to feel the baby kick and since he
was awake too he placed his hand on my
tummy and felt little baby kicks!
He was really happy to feel the 
baby kick and kept wondering
how it felt to me. It was a 
really sweet moment and I was
so happy Ross was finally able
to feel the baby kick!!

 29 weeks Nov 3
November is here and really busy!!
I see the Dr. every 2 weeks now and
last week the baby kicked while the 
nurse took his heart rate! 
We started our baby classes at Baylor
and we are learning all about 
pregnancy and labor and delivery!! 
My baby shower is this weekend and I am 
so excited!! I have family coming into
town and I can't wait to see them!!
Also, in November the turkey trot!!
