Baby Shower!

This weekend was my baby shower. It was so beautiful and such a good time. Thanks to Valerie, Kristen, Karen, Nancy, and my Mom for making it so nice. Here are some pictures from the day.

Me Due 5/5/09, Loralyn Due 5/19/09, and April Due 4/22/09!!!!!

Now that the shower is over there is a lot to do. So far we have the crib together with all bedding set up. We really want to put the mobile up but I think Sophie would try to play with it so we are going to hold off. Jason and Chris picked up the dresser and my rocker recliner while we were at the shower so I was able to wash all clothes, towels, and blankets and have them put away. We are looking good in the diaper department. My mom has been buying us diapers every paycheck and she just gave them to us so those are put away ready for him to get here and dirty them up. Valerie and her sister are super awesome and are letting us borrow a bunch of stuff so we have to figure out where to put everything.

As if tax season weren't enough we are very busy because Jason is opening his very own office in Old Town. We had to pick out the paint for it the other night so things can get started ASAP. Last night we went looking at office chairs for him. Its hard to find a good comfy chair that looks good. His chair needs "look" important since he will be the manager of the office. It is pretty overwhelming all the changes going on in our life right now. We have so much going on with Jason and his job that we don't even have time to think about Luke being here in 7 weeks (hopefully!). I can't wait until tax season is over then I might be able to sleep in until 5:45!!!!

32 weeks...and some big changes!

So I am now 32 weeks!! Only 8 to go (hopefully). Now they tell me my kid is about 4 lbs and 17 inches. Can't believe he is getting so big. I really can't believe he will be here so soon. My shower is this weekend and I am very excited to see everyone. While I'm at the shower Jason and my cousin Chris will be picking up my rocker/recliner and the dresser for Luke's room. It will be so much fun to finally get things all set up. Guess I know what we will be doing on Sunday!

The other night Sophie, who likes to lay on my stomach during the night was purring away on my huge belly and the baby started kicking. It was really cute. Maybe they are bonding. I just hope the introduction of baby and kitty go well. Princess Sophie is used to being the center of our attention and it makes me nervous that she might not take to well to the baby.

So yesterday my awesome husband quit his dream of becoming a major league umpire for the sake of our family. It was a very sad day around here. I feel so lucky to have married the most amazing man in the world who realizes that our family is the most important thing in the world. He is becoming a full time accountant and next month starts his review courses to get his CPA license. I know he never intended on being a CPA but he is doing to make a better life for our little one. As much as I also will miss baseball I'm looking forward to finally spending a full summer with my husband. We have never been together a whole summer before and Jason is super excited to finally be a part of fun summer activities like 4th of July, the races at Del Mar, the Del Mar fair (or whatever its called now), baseball games, and I'm sure many more things that I can't think of right now. This will be the most exciting summer because both my husband and my son will be here!
