Waiting...and some sneaky (but dear) friends

We've had an exciting week around here- one hospital trip, and lots of 'should we go conversations'? Thankfully labor seems to be held off with feet up and rest, but  Baby girl could come any time from here on out. Strong contractions are now a daily part of our life.   We can't wait to meet her, but hey sweet girl- listen to your Mama and stay put a few more weeks.
In the meantime, as the house shifts and prepares to welcome a baby, the cats
are getting worried.


In the meantime we canned some tomatoes (actually A did- I offered support from a chair)
We grew bigger
And then yesterday we were (completely) surprised by a shower for baby given by Adam's co-workers and
their kind families.  Look at the creativity here-  carrot cake in baby food jars (with baby spoons), a watermelon baby carriage....
Delicious food
Thoughtful and creative gifts for our girl! 
I still don't know how Christine did this! For better pictures and the real scoop- you can

Here's our girl, grumpy about having another picture taken and mad at the pokes and prods
when she wanted to sleep.

  1. wow - what a great shower - and a surprise, too! Woo hoo! Those carrot cake jars are just the best, although the baby carriage watermelon is majorly creative. Well, nice to know you are surrounded by such capable and caring folks - eases the angst of our being just a bit far away. Hang in there!
