I am Loved.

This week I have felt so loved and special. I truly have the GREATEST mom, sisters, and friends in the world. On Thursday I got a huge five foot tall box delivered to my work and inside was a ton of presents from my mom for my nursery. She hand-made all of baby Harris's bedding including a bumper, blanket, bed skirt and a bunch of burp rags! She also included a stuffed monkey, glass piggy, cool funky rug and multiple bed sheets. Is she not amazing? It really made me more excited than I ever have been for this baby to arrive. I love all of it!




Then on Friday one of my very best friends Angie threw me a baby shower where I was visited by so many wonderful friends and showered with fabulous gifts. Thanks to all of my friends who came and helped with food, and a special thanks to Angie for hosting the party and being so supportive through-out all of my pregnancy drama the past couple years. I love you Angie!



(Abby Warden made these fabulous, festive cup-cakes! She is so
talented in the kitchen. Thanks Abby!)
Wendy came down for the party too. She is the third person who I owe a huge thank you to! She spent the weekend completely helping me organize, shop and plan for Baby Harris. She was such a big help and we got so much done. It was nice to have her tackle Babies 'R Us with me and give me advice on what I really need and don't need. I feel much more prepared, and it's all because of her. She has also been such a huge emotional support over the past couple years. And thanks to Ali and Lisa for the baby monitor! I love you both and felt your love from afar.



Wendy's gift was super thoughtful. She gave me her 9 "must haves" for a baby, all personalized with notes and explanations of why the particular product is the best.

Thanks everyone for a wonderful week of love and support.


We never got any standing profile pics this weekend to show how big I've gotten since last time, so Wendy took this today....32 weeks!

Uh, those 9 gotta have baby gifts were from me. I let Wendy go with me to BabesRUs so she could say she had a hand it.

Momma Weiler presents are the specialist.

Luv me some Piggy and luv me some Rug.

How exciting. And that monkey is adorable. Our son got one from Grammy and carries it with him at all times. His name is Bananas and it is adorable. And you look fantastic.
