The last couple of months have been a whirlwind! We've been trying to get things finished around the house consisting of, staining the concrete in our entire basement (worst 80+ hours of my life - but thanks to TJ it looks great), landscaping, moving furniture into the basement and preparing for baby. I used to be a little bit of help but now I can't even bend over and breath at the same time so I'm pretty useless.

I made a quick trip to LA to visit Leigh while TJ did the actual staining of the concrete since I couldn't be there with the fumes and to take advantage of this time where I can still "up and go". We girled out the whole weekend. Worked out, laid out, ate out, shopped, got pedicures, the works. It was so nice to just hang out for a couple days.

I have such amazing friends and family that threw me amazing showers! Keri organized a shower for me and my bestie Ashley (she's one month behind me with a baby girl and my little dude's future girlfriend) and it was a blast. I hadn't seen a lot of these girls for a long time and I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard. Love all you girls!

Yep, I could easily pass for 200 lbs here. But it's the only group pic we got so I'll just have to deal with it...

Ash and I. I seriously had to put my had under my belly or I looked obese. Okay, I still look big, but at least I look pregnant big and not just big.

Love me some Nat.

I dunno?

My sister also threw me a shower. I know, I told you I have great family and friends. She did a caramel apple bar and to say they were delicious would be an understatement! Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory's got nothing on her!

If you didn't already know, she is due 2 weeks after me with another little boy. I can already picture the trouble that our two little guys will be getting into together.

The daddy (he got roped into baby sitting the grandkids during the shower) Thanks dad!

Mothers Day celebration with the mom and sis. We don't get together often without naughty little boys interrupting us but it turns out that my mom knows everyone in this flippin town so we just got interrupted by all of them instead. Still it was fun to enjoy a couple of hours together.
