Baby Shower for August!

On March 27th, we celebrated August with a small shower at Brenna's house.  My sister Andi, Stephanie, and Trisha all helped put it together.  It turned out beautiful and was really a lot of fun. We ate yummy foods and delicious cake and did lots of talking, without playing any real games...my favorite kind of shower!! Thank you so much Brenna!! Brenna was also photographer for the day and took some really cute pictures:

St. Patrick's Day 2011

St. Patrick's Day was really fun this year with Teagan.  I'm trying to start some new traditions, so for breakfast I made some green pancakes! Teagan helped me mix everything together and was super excited about eating them.
Later in the day, we had lot's of fun over at the Jacobs house.  Shanna has some great pictures on her blog, here

Playdate at Rush Park!

Continuing the March madness...

The MOMS group that I am in at Shorelife Church had a super fun playdate at Rush Park in Rossmoor.  Teagan had a blast!







Baby Shower for Dana!

As I said before, March was one busy month! The first weekend was a bridal shower, and the second was 2 consecutive baby showers! I went out to Moreno Valley for Stacy & Stephanie's joint baby shower to welcome Samuel and Callie. It was super fun, but I forgot to bring my camera :(  The next day, my friend Kristin, and I threw a baby shower for our friend Dana! We had a great time and Dana felt the love as we celebrated baby Kensley! Again, I wish I had taken many more pictures!





Inessa's Bridal Shower

The month of March was jam-packed with fun things to do! I started off the month by throwing a bridal shower, along with my sister-in-law Steph, for Inessa (Robby's fiance and our future sister-in-law).  There was so much preparation and planning leading up to the shower that I was very excited to see it come together beautifully!  Fun was had by all.  I wish I had taken more photos, but here are a couple:

Baby August

It's been a while since I last wrote.. we've been busy! I simply cannot believe how fast this pregnancy has gone by. I'm very excited to meet my son and back at the end of February we got to take a peek into my belly to see him.  It was really fun.  Some of the family joined us at the doctor's office to have a look at August, including my little Teagan.  He was very cooperative during the ultrasound and we got some great pictures!  The best part, for me, was seeing Teagan's reaction to the whole thing.  She was so cute!  Everytime that Teagan spoke to him, he would turn and open his eyes!! It seems that he already loves his big sister :)  Here are some pics from the ultrasound:


 He has his hand up against his face and is sleeping here!
Here is his leg and foot (resting against my rib!!)
