Photos from my baby shower 5.30.09

Here is a collage I quickly put together of some photos from my baby shower on 5.30.09 at my best friend's house in Benicia. I had a GREAT time! Thanks to everyone who was there to welcome baby Amelia. I love you all!

Also...Happy Father's Day!

Amelia's Nursery

David and I are almost completely finished with the nursery! Yay!! We went with the sky blue walls and birds/tree theme. After I took these photos, Christie gave me a pink stuffed bird that is now hanging from the ceiling over my rocker. It adds that final special touch!

We just have some small things left to finish up the room....tidy up a bit more and hopefully we're done. Then we get to anticipate her arrival. I am almost 37 weeks along....which technically is full term!

I hope you all enjoy these pics...check back again soon as you never know when pics of Amelia will arrive. Also, I'll be posting some pics from my baby shower that was on 5.30.09 in Benicia. :

Portrait Belly Pics by Patti! 34 weeks along

On June 2nd, my fantastic co-worker invited me over to her house to take a few "belly" pics. She loves photography and I was excited to take her up on a preggo fashion shoot...even though I felt SOO huge! We had so much fun playing with different poses. Below are some of the shots taken at her house in El Cerrito on June 2nd, 2009. I was 34 weeks along....no, I do not have a basketball in my belly but it sure does look like it at times! (The picture above is with my very own baby dress that I wore when I was a baby! My mom gave it to me on my baby shower for Amelia to wear)

As of today, I have about 4 weeks to go! I have a Dr. appointment on Tuesday. Let's hope lil Amelia is in position! I'm feeling more and more ready. Last night I was "nesting" and I was up vacuuming at a very late time. David was excited to see this "nesting" going on and he even helped move furniture so that I could get every square corner of the living room! Today, David and I spent hours on the nursery. The walls are a sky blue. The crib is put together along with the changing table and her clothes are laundered and put away. The last bit is to put up our tree and bird wall decals. When the room is finished, I'll post some pics here!

It's countdown time and we can't wait!
