The [boring] life of a SAHM

I had a great time at my baby shower! I was completely blessed by it!
I came in and saw all the pretty decorations and was blown away! I seriously did not expect my Aunts to do something so...well, pretty. They hadn't really involved me in much of it or asked me what I wanted so I thought they just didn't care or something. But oh man I was wrong! They did a WONDERFUL job decorating and getting everything prepared!


Part of the decorations. I really liked this part, very cute!


The decorations. We had cupcakes instead of cake. The little purse looking things are favors (filled with pink & white jelly beans!) The flower arrangements are made from PAPER!

This is the sock game. A variety of baby socks are thrown in between 2 people & they have to match & fold as many as they can. There are only 9 pairs of socks so whoever folds & correctly matches the most is the winner and the winner takes on someone else until there is a final winner.

This is my cousin Taylor and my grandma...YES I said grandma, playing the sock game. (My family is quite competive so thats why I love playing this game!) Hah!

My mom & Braxton

My friend Monica & I. (We're both pregnant so I had to have a belly shot! Lol!) I'm on the left of course and OMG am I huge compared to her!! She is due just 2 weeks after me!

Opening gifts

Highchair & 9 packages of diapers!

All the stuff!

The diaper raffle turned out pretty good! We had 9 people enter the raffle which means 9 packages of diapers! :D I already had 12 packs saved up so we now have 20 packages!!!


That night I went through everything and returned anything that: *I had duplicates of, *I didn't like (mostly clothing for that one) or *didn't need. I also returned the highchair :( It was so pretty but about a week before the shower I decided it would take up too much space & that I would get on of those chairs that you strap onto a regular seat that has a tray and everything, but didn't think to take it off my registry & someone bought it for me!!

So with all the returns I got about $150 on a walmart card and was able to get:
-my crib bedding!! :D
-diaper bag that I LOVE (even though I have about 5 diaper bags already! lol)
-booster seat with tray
-some baby proofing stuff for Braxton (hes learned how to unlock & open the front door)
-comfortor & pillow cases to go on our bed that will match Addies bedding

I think thats it. :)
I've got everything put away and ready for her to get here!
