Shower!

No she's not here yet....but I did have a shower last week celebrating her upcoming arrival! I am so blessed to have family and friends who have supported me and encouraged me throughout this pregnancy. My precious friend Carolyn offered to throw me a shower and wouldn't take no for an answer, so we had a fabulous night eating yummy snacks, ice cream cake, and opening gifts! It really could not have gone more perfectly, it was exactly what I wanted and I'm so thankful to everyone who came, and especially to Carolyn and her mom for throwing the shower. I am so humbled by everyone's generosity.

Opening presents! Turns out there's still a lot you need even when it's your second baby!

The book that made me cry, written especially for Annie. Oh and p.s., yes her name will be Annie :) We haven't really "announced" the name because we don't have a middle name yet.

Me and my sweet Mama :) She has taught me so much about raising Godly children.

Precious friends! I forgot to take pictures until most had already left so I missed a lot of people! Sorry :)

Love these girls....they've been with me through it all...even those awkward middle school days. Good thing we don't look like that anymore :)

Messing around with the balloons. I brought these home to Lucy after the shower and she STILL drags them around the house and brings them to whatever room she is playing in. She'll say, "I think I need go get my balloons."

We are so excited to meet this baby girl and this shower made it all the more real to me.
THANK YOU AGAIN TO EVERYONE!
