A Few Shower Photos

Not all of them will load at the moment, but here are a few shower photos from last week. I felt so blessed to have so many people sharing our joy about Zoey Bree.
















Sorry this post is missing many important people, including the lovely hostess of the shower. More to come when the photos cooperate!

Let Them Eat Cake

My friend, Nancy, brought this awesome diaper cake by the other day (she made it herself).

It turns out this is the only kind of cake I can enjoy for the remaining eight or nine weeks. 

A few months ago I told the doc I felt super-crappy, hoping she'd do some blood work. She took one look at me and told me to get off the couch. 

OK, I thought. Maybe I am just lazy. (As if my olympic-length swims didn't mean anything... can you tell I'm feeling a little bitter?)

Turns out, two months later, there was a little something causing my vomiting, headaches, and general malaise... gestational diabetes. 

Since adjusting a few things I am feeling MUCH better and MUCH relieved that this baby is not going to be 16 pounds!

At least... I hope not...

My SIL, nephew, me, and giant belly last week

So whether Zoey comes out via the knife blade, or whether she comes via other means (this is a co-ed blog after all), we will be overjoyed to meet this little... err... giant girl.

In the meantime, it's nesting, nesting, nesting (photos to come). That should burn some serious calories!

For Real? Mom? Dad?

Sometimes we wonder if Zoey is going to put herself up for adoption when she meets us.
