Baby Shower

In July, I had the opportunity to fly home for a couple weeks and spend time in Boise and Utah with my family. Sadly, Brent couldn't come with me because he was right in the middle of Summer Term:( But while I was home, my wonderful sisters-in-law, mom, and mother-in-law threw me THE CUTEST baby shower ever. Baseball themed! If you know Brent or I, you know that they couldn't have picked a more appropriate theme. And they couldn't have done a better job with the food, decorations, and games. Loved it!

It was so wonderful to see all of you who were able to make it! And thank you for all the gifts to help us get ready for little baby boy! I came back with more than a suitcase full of exciting and cute baby things to show Brent!

And here's a picture of me at 26 weeks, 2 days. I think my shirt makes it hard to tell how big I am, but I feel like baby grew a ton while I was at home! I thought maybe Brent wouldn't be able to recognize me when he picked me up from the airport.

Baby is kicking a ton now and I love to feel it. I can't believe we'll get to meet him in just three short months! I've got my maternity tours, childbirth class, and pediatrician consultations scheduled. We've even got a bed, car seat, and stroller. It's getting so close and we're definitely getting excited to meet our little guy!

  3. I wish we could have stayed for your shower Janelle. I was super bummed to miss it. And I never got your gift to you! I'll send it with mom when she goes. Oh and I must say that you are much more prepared than I am... No carseat, no pediatrician, no idea where to go when I'm actually in labor... I should probably look into that!

  4. Ah! The shower looks so so cute. I wish I would have been there. At least I got to see you, though. And I love the shirt you're wearing in your belly picture. You're looking super cute.

  5. It was a joy to have you home, Janelle! The shower was a ton of fun, it was good to be with family and friends. You are doing so well with this pregnancy, and we too are looking forward to meeting OUR little feller. We missed you, Brent. We enjoyed our time with Janelle-and can hardly wait to enjoy seeing all THREE OF YOU.
