No baby yet


Micah is still hanging out breech in the belly. 13 days until the due date!! Hopefully soon, he will decide to flip. I am trying a few "home remedies" to encourage him to turn, but nothing too drastic. More soon!!

and Micah's got the hiccups right now. I think that's his way of saying Hi!

deluged by generosity

Friday, I went and checked in with my co-workers and planned to have lunch - they surprised me with a baby shower and very generous gifts!! So sweet. :) I love my girls!! (and the boys too ;)

Saturday I was blessed to have a non-surprise baby shower - my Momalla (mother in law) threw a fantastic party, with the help of my sisters and others I'm sure. It was SO GREAT!! fun games, great food, and no cake. :) I hate cake. We enjoyed cheesecake and brownies instead. Again, I was overwhelmed by the generosity of my family, Andy's family on his mom's side and his dad's side, and my one friend Amy who was able to make it!! Very fun and what a BLESSING!! We are stocked with baby stuff! The gift I am most excited about is the infant car seat, since that relieves the most anxiety - if this little guy comes early, I want to make sure we can take him home!! But I loved (almost) EVERYTHING that we got!! so much cute stuff. :)

Almost unbelievably, I have one more shower to go!! the church http://www.welcometothechurch.com/ that we came from in Lombard is throwing another shower next weekend!! I can hardly believe how blessed Andy and I are. We are so thankful for all of this generosity!! We've been blessed to be a blessing. :) I am excited to be able to pass that on to other moms and people in need in the area. Once our munchkins are finished with this stuff, it will be such a joy to pass it along to another new family!!

Wow!!
