Showered with Love

My mom and sister hosted a baby shower in northern CA in September. It was so much fun and great to see all my aunts, cousins, and close family friends. It was nice to catch up with everyone, eat great food and dessert. We were spoiled with the best girly gifts.

 

My cousin made these, they were sooo good.

Steve said he wanted a dog and his wish came true

 

 

A group of girls at work hosted my second luncheon baby shower at Tommy Bahama's in Newport Beach. I'm bummed I didn't get any pictures of the girls. The only camera phone pictures I did take were of the Sprinkles cupcakes (complete pregnancy brain).

 

My last baby shower was hosted by my dear friend, Eileen. She went above and beyond. The food was delicious and the company was fantastic. Baby and I, again, felt very much loved. My mom was able to fly down and my aunt joined us too.

 Now that I am on maternity leave, I am in full nesting mode. The nursery is almost complete, just a few more things to add. I am 36 weeks! I will be delivering on November 21st (the day before Thanksgiving) via c-section. I can't believe I'm going to be a mom in less than 3 weeks!
