Starting to get ready...

This past weekend, I attended my second baby shower, given by Jason's aunts Carolyn, Agnes, and Lillian. Of course, Jason's mom lent her decorating hand as well. Everything was so cute! Jason's mom even decorated a little tree with all kinds of Jason's baby keepsakes (pacifier, comb, shoes, baby blanket, etc.), which she passed them onto me. What a thoughtful gift!

Everybody was very generous, and we ended up with so many nice gifts! They took up the entire back end of my car! We've now got most things unpacked and put away as much as possible, without having our baby furniture. We picked up our travel system and crib mattress last night. This is becoming so real!

We got quite a snowstorm last night, which dumped about 6" of fresh snow in the West Michigan area. Since Jason gets so many personal days, he decided to use one today. Unfortunately, I had a couple of commitments at work, so that wasn't an option for me. He used his snowday to the fullest. He had the travel system completely assembled by the time he called me at 8:00! Throughout the course of the day, he finished either setting up or putting away the majority of thte remaining baby items. I think he's really getting excited for this little one's arrival, too!
Just some of the baby presents we received between our 2 showers
