Walker Shower

We are so grateful for all of the  showers that our friends and family have thrown for us.  I find it important to document them all so that Paxton (if he wants to!) can look back at all the love and support he had even before he was born!

Kari, Colleen and Cindy threw such a sweet shower for Paxton and I!! They asked each guest to bring a book, which I loved.  In addition they asked each guest to write a note to Paxton for each of his birthdays until he is 21.  Each guest also left with a CD that included songs that have the word baby in them.  The songs were also part of a game where we had to guess the title and artist of the song.  It was such a special night!





Family Shower

I can't say enough about how lucky Paxton is to have Ashley as an aunt.  She made the family shower for Paxton so special.

We started by doing a craft.  Each person desgined a 4 X 6 white card using scrapbook paper and fabric that matches Paxton's room.  Ashley is going to take each desgined card and turn into a desgin and frame it for his room.  I especially love it because a piece of all of our families will be represented in his room.

Lunch!



Beautfiully decorated tables for a sit down lunch.

Dessert!


Madilyn helped open gifts!


One of my favorite parts of baby showers is coming home, unloading all of the gifts from the car and reopening the gifts with Bob in Paxton's room.  This sweet Dallas Cowboys outfit was given to us by his Grandma Judy.

Friend Shower

We feel so lucky to have such great friends who threw a baby shower for Paxton!  It was so sweet because they had all of my favorite foods to eat and deocrated Steph's house in grays and yellows!!

30th Birthday and 30 Weeks Pregnant

What a coincidence to be 30 years old today and 30 weeks pregnant.  I feel so lucky to have a husband that made it a special day by sending flowers and chocolates to work and then a surprise dinner with friends at Garozzo's.  When I think of how I plan to spend my 30's I can think of only one word FAMILY! 

30 and 1/2 weeks!!!
