Showered with Showers


What a fun month! It's been non stop baby celebration with people I love. I am so fortunate to have family and friends who love me and Ayden and want to welcome her into this world with many great parties. My girlfriends at work threw the first shower which rivaled a small wedding...I guess that's how it's done "Miami style." There were 6 other baby showers going on at the same time in the restaurant. But with over 20 labor and delivery nurses there, I think we had every pregnant lady covered in case of an emergency. I am done working now and miss seeing them all terribly. It will be another great party in the delivery room I'm sure.




Next was off to Tally where Mom, Jill, Aunt Michele, and friends joined together for another wonderful time. It is always special to share big moments with people I've known my entire life. And as always, being spoiled at home is fantastic.





The girls at church gave another great shower, and it was nice to be able to start fitting into the "Mom" group. They are a few years ahead of me in the kid dept, so I learned many things, and I'm sure my education will continue. And lastly, the dental wives all went out for a nice dinner. Our husbands are all friends, and we get together with them, but this was the first girls only. Everyone was incredibly generous, and Ayden has everything a baby girl could ever want. Patrick and I are so thankful for everyone's thoughfulness and kindness. Now we are officially in the birth month, so the count down truly begins. I gave Ayden her eviction notice today since I no longer can bend my sausage fingers, and it takes 3 hours to get to sleep. I have been a very fair and loyal landlord, but there just isn't anymore room. I am thinking March 17th would be a nice day being St. Patrick's Day...but I know how this goes. We will keep you posted!

I love that landlord/tenant!!! I guess I should have tried that with Audrey...she wanted to stay in forever!! I am sure you look great, but the last few weeks are tough on you. It is amazing how you forget all of that when you get to hold her and look at her for the first time. Good luck with the last weeks and we can't wait to see pictures of your sweet girl.

Thank you so much for the gift you sent! If Bill were a little girl he totally would wear it:) His stepmom wanted to get a pair of emme's shoes bronzed...and Bill tried to give her the shoes you sent. He's kind of a moron. Thanks again! I hope all is well.
