Making progress.....

A lot has happened in the short time since I posted last.  First thing that happened was Sunday....our baby shower!  How fun?!?  This was the shower in our hometown and was given by great friends of ours.....

Everything was GORGEOUS and over the top just as I knew it would be.  They are entertainers, let me tell you...they even had a fresh flower arrangement in the bathroom! LOL (That's just for you, K!)  It was just perfect.  The weather was beautiful, the food was wonderful, the cake was so sweet and pretty, and everything just turned out so nice!  Here's a peek at the food...

Isn't it gorgeous?  On top of all that, we had a wonderful shower.  We got tons of cutesy, girlie things...you know I hated that? ha :)  I had a great time opening all of the sweet gifts and we appreciate everything that everyone has done for us more than they will ever know.  If you have a few minutes...or hours..lol...here's a few pictures of our pretties....I was excited because she now has her very own personlized blankets for horse shows...

And, you all know that I am a bow FREAK....love, love, love them and I was so afraid she wouldn't have many....well the owner of Sew Sweet took care of that for me, don't you think...

She also fixed up a burp cloth just for Daddy....can't you tell he loves the pink tractor?

Harper got some BEAUTIFUL dresses and outfits....can't wait to dress her all up!!!  She's going to be all stylish, don't you agree?

The sweetest little blanket and another gorgeous bib...Sweet Miss Annabella personally giving me Harper's little bracelet.  So sweet!  I hope they are as good of friends as we are with her parents.  I just love it...and her!The aftermath....some of it.....the rest was in bags inside the bedroom.

The boys doing what they do best.....relaxing!  Isn't this a cute picture?  They were supposed to be parking cars. LOLOverall, we had a great time and we'll never be able to thank everyone enough.  We are so blessed to have such wonderful, thoughtful people in our lives and Harper is one lucky little girl to be coming a world where so many people are praying for her and already loving her more than she'll ever know.

"God is able to do immeasurably more than we could all ask or imagine." Eph 3:20 

Onto happenings in our house, after the baby gift tornado blew through our house (heehee), I just had to sit in the floor and go through each bag one by one!  It was great, but VERY overwhelming!  I just didn't have a clue where to begin.  What to hang up first?  Where to pile the diapers?  But, the good news is, we are making progress.....

Look at this girl's closet....oooohhhh.....it's like my own personal Disney World!  I can't wait, I can't  wait!  Everything is so cute and little bitty and soft.  It just doesn't get much better than this!Finally, I wanted to end by filling you in on my first of two dr's appts. for this week.  This week, I went today and go back Friday for a non-stress today.  Today was our longer ultrasound and we found out that our little blessing weighs.....are you ready for this.....4 lbs. and 14 oz.  Oh my goodness!  I can't believe she's gained a lb. and 4 oz. in 3 weeks!  So funny...she's growing so fast and she's going to be here in no time!  On the other hand, I haven't gained an ounce....can we hear a whoo hoo?!?!?  I was so excited.  Everything is still going great w/ me....just starting to really feel pregnant, but what more could I ask for?  I am 8 months pregnant!  I love it!  

I wanted to end with yet another pic.  Here is the 3D ultrasound we had made last week.  Isn't our little Miss Harper gorgeous?  Look at those sweet cheeks!  And, she so has her momma's nose and lips!  I can't wait to hold her in my arms and know she's okay and perfect!  

WE ARE SO BLESSED!

Hope everyone has as good of a week as ours has been so far!
