Nursery

Here are some pictures of our completed nursery! I kind of tried to do the vintage/shabby chic theme and think it turned out great. The saying on the wall reads "The angels danced the day you were born" I saw it online and fell in love with it. The crib & dresser were gifts from my parents and I love them. The crib turns into a toddler bed for later on. Now we wait...

Work Shower

My work threw me a baby shower this last week. I am so fortunate to work with such a caring and generous staff. The shower was given by my friends Laurie, Cassie, Ashley & my awesome 4th grade teammate Liz. The cake was beautiful and delicious, it read "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star...Do You Know How Loved You Are." We also enjoyed playing some games. For one everyone had to cut a piece of yarn by how big they thought my belly was, and for another we had 1 min. to draw a picture of a baby while holding the paper on top of our heads! Very funny seeing a library full of teachers doing this, even funnier were the drawing results!

A Shower of Blessings

A special thank you to my mother-in-law Lola, sister-in-law Kathy, aunt Karlene, and aunt Rene for throwing such a special baby shower for us! We had fun playing games like present bingo, baby memory, and pick the pins out of rice! We are blessed to have such wonderful family & friends and know our baby girl will grow up knowing how special she is. Thank you for all the beautiful gifts of love! -Jess, Dusty & Baby

34 Weeks, 6 to go!

Saturday marks 34 weeks along! We had a Dr. apt today and all continues to be great. I have gained a total of 24 lbs. and she continues to poke & jab like crazy. Sleeping at night is getting more uncomfortable but overall I am feeling great. Dusty thinks it is great that I have started "nesting" because I have been cleaning like crazy. haha!
