Some Videos

We have some neat videos that I have been wanting to post. Let's see if I can figure it out!

LB dancing around...once you get the hang of how I am breathing, you can see her bumping all over the place!

This is a funny video of Leyla discovering the diaper genie...it was given to us by some friends and although it was clean as a whistle, it must of had a lingering scent that was quite interesting to Ley....

This is short video of the shower before we arrived and the diaper cake!! Make sure you read the post below this one to read all about the shower!

All the girls

Can you see all the onsies?

So many beautiful flower arrangements!

Last night we were so privileged to attend a baby shower for both Dax and I. It was given by my besties, Maggie, Christy and Ria and it was absolutely amazing. We arrived to a house full of our favorite people and the most beautiful decorations you can imagine. I was "showered" all night long and treated like a princess while Dax was able to hang out with the guys and enjoy some man time. We snacked on all kinds of our favorite goodies and chatted with everyone. Then, the boys left to go out for awhile while the girls stayed back to open gifts. Each and every gift was so thoughtful and meaningful, I just can't believe that we are so lucky to have such great friends. All the decorations, flowers, food and drinks were so perfect! Not one detail went unnoticed. We also were served a catered dinner from Cheesecake Factory (yummy-o), do our friends know us well or what?

Some of the highlights was the diaper cake with a pair of cowboy boots on top!!! How adorable!! We can't wait till LB will be able to wear them, now our whole family has a pair! Ria was videoing the whole night on this little camera that I thought was a phone. We found out when opening the gifts, it was a camera for us! What a huge surprise Chad and Ria, now we can video all LB's milestones for everyone to see and for us to cherish forever! We also made unique and adorable onsies with our favorite bands. Our little girl is going to be one hip mama. The gifts we received were all so thoughtful and special. I can't wait to take pictures of LB in all her new gear and send you pictures!

Here are some pictures of the evening. We can't even explain how thankful and grateful we are to each one of our friends in attendance. We love you all so much and are just filled with happiness. This is the best time of our lives and we are so incredibly blessed! Only 4 more weeks until we get to meet our little one!

it's pretty boring around here!

There is nothing new to report but I know I have to update anyway so....let's see. Hmmmm......

Leyla thinks we are talking to her when we talk to LB so this concerns us a little bit. Don't have a solution to that problem yet. She runs over to us and starts licking and wagging and looks at us like we are crazy because we are not petting her. We are still hoping that everything just falls into place when we bring LB home and Leyla learns to love her little sister. Otherwise, Leyla's life is going to change even more than we anticipated. But we don't like to think about that particular possibility.

Work is crazy and I am getting to the point where I just do not want to be there anymore. I have so much to do before I leave, and I'm trying to prepare everything so it will go smoothly for my replacement, calm parents concerns with me being gone the rest of the year, paperwork, meetings, and on and on and on!

Baby is moving all the time, but is still lying sideways (transverse). The scary word "C-section" has been brought up if she doesn't turn since you can not deliver a baby sideways, so I am really hoping that she turns! I visit a chiropractor 3 times a week and she has been doing a special technique to turn the baby. So hopefully she will. She has three more weeks to turn before my doctor schedules the C-section.

I told you it was super boring around here. We will update after our next dr. appointment!!
