Baby Showers!

I am now 37 weeks pregnant and have been fortunate enough to have two baby showers. The first one was when I was 7 months pregnant and in my last month of work. The funny thing is, when I look at these pregnant pictures at 7 months, I haven't changed much now that I am nearly 9 months along. I have only gained 22 pounds with this pregnancy compared to 43 pounds that I gained with Colton. Coincidentally, I have had food poisoning twice, losing 7 pounds each time. The last time was a week ago and had to go to labor and delivery for three bags of IV fluid to try and regain some of the weight that I had lost. I was also experiencing some contractions but they stopped once my body was re-hydrated. It has been very nice to be off work since the middle of March and will not have to return until mid August. We are ready for Baby K to make her appearance at any time :).

Some great friends at work threw me a shower. It was fun to see some of the guy teachers show up as well.

Getting ready to open some gifts.

I work with some very talented people. I got lots of handmade blankets.

Daddy brought Colton and he had a friend to play with. Lillian is six days older than him and they have a great time together.

My wonderful friend Rebecca threw me a shower for friends. It was a lot of fun and good food too.

Colton loves the ladies :).

Colton had another friend to play with, Kaycee. The two of them followed each other around and then helped me open presents.


These two loved helping me open presents.
