bump #87: baby showers!

One thing I have really looked forward to, but never dreamed would happen for me, 
was having a baby shower. And last week I got TWO!!!

My mom hosted a baby shower for family and friends 
back home in San Luis Obispo on Valentine's Day.

It was fabulous! We called it a "Sweet Baby Boy" theme because we had 
a sweets table AND a treats table. So many yummy things!




My best friend, Ashley and me. My other best friend Veronica and her girls. 
My mom and sister, who are also besties :)  
 My Favorite Aunt Karen and her family came down from Santa Cruz. So good to see them! Aunt Karen completed the Iron Man Triathlon at Lake Tahoe last year.  She's incredible!
 It was such a special day with so many people that have prayed for our miracle baby. 
Such a fun celebration of answered prayers!

And then on Saturday my other best friend and college roommate, Tiffany, hosted a baby shower in San Diego for all of my friends and coworkers.  

It was a "Dashing Lil Man" theme and was absolutely adorable. Everyone had so much fun!

Being surrounded by all of these lovely ladies who have supported and encouraged me so much was absolutely wonderful! Oliver is already so, so loved and I am so grateful for my family and friends who came to celebrate with us. This week was one of the highlights of my whole life and in less than 4 weeks, Ollie is making his grand debut. YAY!!!
