"Little Man's" Louisville Shower

In mid –august “Little Man” had his 4th and final shower. I can’t imagine anything else this little baby could possibly need. Grammy flew in from North Carolina to join in the festivities. (Sean and I are just figuring it out, if we want people to visit us in Kentucky we have to bribe them with a baby!)

We had a blast at the shower here are some pictures of all the people who came to celebrate!
The "Cousins"
Jennifer and Kendall (our adorable god-daughter)
Me, Amber, and Kristen (Amber is exepecting a little boy in a few months too)
Angie, Lauren, and me
Blair, Sara, and little Trey (which by the way Trey was a lady's man that day, he was the only male in the house!)

The Dean Dorton Ford and former Dean Dorton Ford Table!!
And the BKD girls!

Now that you have seen all the people who came to celebrate the arrival of "Little Man" now it's time for the gifts and let me tell you there were a lot of them.

Here is a picture of "Little Man's" grandmothers

Me and Grammy

And of course we had cake... everyone knows how much I love cake.
And here are my great friends who threw the shower for me (Jennifer and Allison) … they did an amazing job, it was perfect.
Yes we planned the bright colored shirts... just kidding.

At the end of the day my mom and I went home and went through everything that "Little Man" received and did a final count on diapers…. I got over 1600 diapers… we are hoping that lasts more than a month!!

Well there is exactly one month until "Little Man" is due so hopefully my next post will be the first pictures of him. We are excited and can't beleive it's so close. People keep telling me they think watching the Patriots will put me into early labor.... I guess we will just have to wait and see. Stay tuned!!!

Shower #2 and #3.... yes there is a #4

On Aug 6th we had an office cookout at a co-workers house and it turns out I have wonderul co-workers because they had a little surpise shower for Sean and I. (As if this baby wasn't spoiled enough with 3 planned showers!!)

Here are some pictures from the shower.
Sean and me right after being surprised.... man that water bottles is always with me.
The cute "big" cake!

Sean and I opening gifts... the "big boy" car seat!

And the adorable outfits!!!

Then about a week later a few girls from the Lexington office had a shower for me.... I am telling you my co-workers are awesome. We had the shower in the office during lunch and of course I still managed to be late due to meetings! But I got there in time to enjoy some food before the activities began.

The prego stuffing her face!

Here is a picture of the adorable cake!


Here is everyone else stuffing their face too!!!

Below are some pictures of me opening some gifts


And last but not least ... all the prego's in the room please stand up!
Aren't we cute?

All I can say is Little Man is a lucky baby... he has been spoiled so much already and he still has 7 weeks before his arrival.

Stay tuned next week I will post about our 4th and final shower!!

Little Man's Nursery!!



After much contemplation about what the nursery’s theme should be, we thought we would surprise everyone and go with a sports theme!! I know SHOCKING!! I was told I couldn’t do a complete Patriots room so we tried to keep it multi-sports but I did have to have a Patriots corner. Sean keeps asking “where is the Louisville stuff?” ….Men, they don’t get that blue and red does not match with red and black!! (What can I say black just doesn’t match!)


So here are some pictures of the nursery!!



Sean trying to put the crib together .... he doesn't need no stinking directions!!!


Laci tried to help as much as she could... she wasn't quite sure what was going on... her "napping" room now has a bunch of new stuff in it. We tried very hard to explain it to her but she is a typical six year old and just cared about how it was going to effect her.



Okay Okay now the finished nusery pictures!! The baby bedding!



The Crib!

The changing table...full of baby stuff we got from the first shower.

And here is the Patriots corner.... no I didn't put up my Tom Brady Fat Head...I thought maybe having a life size picture of mommy's boyfriend on the wall might confuse little man.


And the glider... okay and a few more Patriots things!



Little Man's closet.... as you can see it is almost full!! Yes he is spoiled already.






After a long day of putting furnature together and putting baby stuff away it was time for Laci and I to relax.... okay it wasn't that long of a day but any excuse to sit down works for me!






Stay tune....next blog will probably be from my work shower!!

Little Man's First Shower in Good Old Massachusetts


On June 26th, my mom threw me my first baby shower and Mal was nice enough to let us have it at her house. It was a very special day, so many people came to celebrate “little man” even Brandy and Mikayla all the way from Vegas. People came from Pennsylvania, Nevada, North Carolina, Connecticut, and of course all the people from Massachusetts. It was wonderful to see everyone.












“Little Man” was more than spoiled, we got so many great gifts; car seats, strollers, jumpie, diapers, diaper bags, Bumbo seat, bouncer, gift cards, bottles, tons of clothes, and wonderful homemade gifts. Who would have thought a baby would need so much stuff?





The cutest onesie ever!


This is the beautiful quilt my Aunt Joyce made.



and of course plenty of Patriots stuff!!!
Next blog will be "Little Man's" nursery .... Sean, Laci, and I had fun putting the room together.
