33 weeks!

33 weeks!!!! 

Which means 7 weeks left, with a mere 45 days to go!

This is my sleepy picture! I took it this morning and my face is still poofy from waking up.

Oh what an eventful weekend! Two baby showers, tons of stuff, lots of fun, and I am immensely blessed. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone who put them on: My amazing cousin Mandy--the entire thing was ADORABLE!! My grandma Margie--who found every elephant in the entire city for Hadassah! Perfect! My grandma Jean, aunt Roseann (and uncle Mike), MOM!, aunt Theresa, and my amazing cousins Justine, Josh and Dustin-- y'all did so much, and I am SO THANKFUL for everyone and everything you did!! I love you guys!!! :D :D You all made it super special. :D :D

Special shout out to my aunt Michelle who, upon hearing that I'm clothe diapering, got a diaper, liners, disposable liners, AND a little rinser!!! She is the best!!! :D She did it in such a clever way, too. I will scan in her thing tomorrow and post it. She's hilarious. You'll see.

Also, thank you to KELLI! Because she wouldn't let me travel alone, so Jonathan, my mom, and everyone else felt a lot safer. :D And I didn't have to be sleepy and driving. Plus, it was good company on the long, boring drive! :D

Here are some baby shower pictures!! :D

THE SATURDAY SHOWER:

 the bump!

Eating... :D with Kelli, who is awesome and came to Abq with me!

 the amazing fruit baby my cousin Justine made!!

 More food pictures......and awesome sugar cookies Justine made!! :D

and  a little pink cross for her room.

 These books were my mom's when she was little. <3

 I got a lot of really cute clothes and dresses for her! 

And the blanket is a prayer blanket, that my aunt and cousins prayed for her while they made it. 

So  nice!
