Happy Thanksgiving!

In this time of thanksgiving we would like to reflect on all that we are thankful for including our family, friends, good health, our sweet puppy and for the blessing of our little girl who we will get to meet in just a few short weeks. There are many more reasons for us to be thankful and we continue to give thanks every day for all of them. We want to wish all of you a blessed thanksgiving and hope you all feel as blessed everyday as we do! Happy Thanksgiving!

Beautiful Baby Shower for Mommy and Katelyn

Yesterday Katelyn and Mommy were blessed with a BEAUTIFUL baby shower brunch! It was hosted by Wendy, Blythe, Christy, Stephanie and Leah. We had the most beautiful day and everything was top notch! We were blessed with the company of many family and friends, some of who came from out of state to join in the celebration of our little blessing, Katelyn. I can't even begin to thank the girls for all they did in organizing such a beautiful party for us. We are so truly blessed and love all of you so, so much! Thank you to everyone for all the lovely gifts and for coming to share in our special day.
Opening gifts... we received so many beautiful things. Our little girl will be the best dressed baby in Tampa :)


My dear friend and college roommate, Monique drove all the way from South Florida the morning of the shower to share my special day.

Wendy and Stef... Wendy was one of the hostesses of the party and said a beautiful blessing before we ate. It was so special and sweet... it made me cry.




Steph, Wendy, Stef, Blythe and Christy... thank you so much for everything!


Here is Leah, another one of the hostesses. She was reading answers to one of the games.

The tables we all set up on Steph's beautiful lanai area. The weather was just gorgeous.

Katelyn's diaper cake made by her Aunt Wendy... It's too pretty to take apart so I'll wait until I'm desparate for diapers :)

Here was the cake table... everything was just so beautiful!

Getting the Nursery Ready...

With only 7 short weeks to go we are finishing up getting Katelyn's nursery ready for her arrival. We are very excited to meet her and as you will see below her daddy has been putting in a lot of work. Below are some pictures of him putting her new crib together. Now we just have to get the dresser/changing table and we will be all set :)








The final product!
