The last baby shower

On Saturday my good friends from Brainerd threw Baby Girl Speral her very last baby shower! It was a WONDERFUL day!!! We have become pro's at bridal and baby showers but the girls really out did themselves this time! We had the most delish food, tons of cupcakes and Brownies and of course the mimosas..and mock mimosas for the pregnant ladies! It was just the most prefect day-the girls went in together and gave us a basket FULL of goodies that we are sure to get use out of and our swing! It was delivered today and of course I had to set it up immediately! We are so excited for her to use it-soon! Thank you girls so much-you are wonderful friends and I feel so lucky to have you in my life. I wish we got to see each other more-this summer I will have to make many trips back for play dates! Thank you to everyone!!!! We are so blessed and lucky!

Yep-she is spoiled!

My sister in law Kara and niece Olivia threw a wonderful family baby shower for us this past weekend. Joel even came to celebrate! It was such a great day filled with family and of course the happy cake-no party would be complete without the happy cake! Baby girl Speral is so blessed to have so many great aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins and second cousins that love her so much already! I can't wait for her to be here so she can meet everyone in person, only 6 more weeks now!

Here are a few pictures from the shower!

32 weeks and Baby Shower

On Wednesday we had our 32 week Dr. appointment. Everything is looking good and right on track, gained a few more pounds and got to hear the babies heartbeat. We were excited to hear that she most likely has flipped from breech to head down! yay! We go every two weeks now so I'm sure I will have plenty of updates to come!

We also had our first birthing class this week-something I was sure was going to freak Joel out and that I was totally prepared for. HAHA I was totally wrong-although I'm sure Joel is completely terrified I was the one sweating and thinking I was going to faint watching the birthing videos! I can't even tell you how many times I turned to Joel and said "I don't think I can do this" his response "it's a little late for that now don't you think?!" It was a crash course on labor and delivery-I'm sure at the time I'm in labor I will appreciate knowing that stuff but for now I'm scared out of my mind!

Today my good friends Darla and Emily threw baby girl Speral a "fun girls" baby shower! It was so nice to see all the girls from college again and talk all about babies and old times! It was a prefect day with wonderful friends and family-thank you so much everyone! I'm thinking we already need to punt an "addition" onto the babies room-wow she has a lot of stuff! We are also going to have dinner with some good friends tonight-The Netlands, Mike and Lisa, Corey and Laura and Andrew. I'm sure the boys will be sitting at one end of the table watching sports and drinking beers and the girls will be at the other end talking and laughing! We are so excited that Mike and Lisa will be moving to Fargo soon and we will get to spend more time with them and their little girl who is due at the end of May!
