This was definately a fun filled and busy weekend. Saturday morning Jeremy and I had our final childbirth education class. It was just the two of us, one other couple and the instructor, so we got a lot of individual attention, and I got a lot of massage ;-) We are certainly feeling more prepared these days. After our class, I got to attend our first baby shower. My friend Hayden, and my mom hosted it and we had a wonderful time. I was so excited to get the chance to visit with some friends and family that I hadn't seen in a while. Jeremy and I were absolutely overwhelmed by the generosity that was shown. We received so many gifts for our little one! In fact, we spent several hours Saturday night and Sunday morning sorting, washing, and organizing everything. It was exhausting, but very worthwile! Here are a couple of pics from the shower:
Our friend Sam made this beautiful blanket for Baby Christian!
My Grandma made this sweater, along with a bunting and a blanket. She's so crafty!
Instead of cake, we had these fabulous little cupcakes. They were made by a local company called "Happiness in a Bite." Hayden had them decorated with monkeys, onsies, and baby feet- too cute!
Here is a group shot.
On Sunday Jeremy and I went and had some maternity photos taken. It was a fun experience and something I didn't know that I would feel comfortable doing. We really wanted to highlight my growing belly, and our little peanut inside. After a couple of hours, we went home with some prints. I took pics of the photos so the quality may not be that great, but you can get an idea. For those of you who don't wish to see my bare belly- look no further!
Also- for comparison sake- here is another belly shot taken at exactly 34 weeks!

What a wonderful baby shower! The photos are great. I also love the photos of You, Jeremy and Baby Peanut. It won't be long now until Peanut is here!! How special it is to hold your baby for the first time. Get plenty of rest now and take care. Miss you both very much.
Love you,
