It's amazing how the smallest things in life make me the happiest and how fast that happiness can be shot down.
I was so excited to go to Seven Peaks today for opening day. I shaved my legs (which took forever) and painted my toe nails (which was a little painful) and tried on my new maternity suit (which was depressing). And then the weather had to go and change so it's too cold to go anymore!
Blast you pregnancy! I just want to feel good about my body again and be able to do the things I enjoy. And I don't want to go into an instant depression when I don't get what I want (stupid hormones). Can I really survive another 5 weeks of this? I sure hope so because I don't know how much longer I will be able to stand myself.

May Showers
Saturday was my big baby shower with all the family and close friends and it was fantastic! My mom and sisters did a great job decorating with pink and green everything just like Anna's bedroom and the treats were so yummy!
Almost everyone came and those that couldn't were kind enough to send a gift or card. Anna and I were so spoiled! I can't believe how generous, loving, and supporting everyone really was. I have been nervous about being ready for this little one to get here for a while but after Saturday I think the only thing we still need are a few bottles, formula, and a diaper bag :)
It's funny how my mind set changed instantly after that party. Now that I have so many darling clothes I just want to try them all on her. I want to wrap her up in the soft blankets we received and just hold her all day. It's going to be even harder to wait for her to get here (still about 6 weeks away!) Part of me is ready for her and part of me is scared to death that she really could be here in 3-6 weeks and be a healthy baby girl that I will have to take care of for the rest of my life.
Josh and I got quite a bit done in Anna's room last night and things are becoming more real everyday. Her name letters are up on the wall, the darling baby sign Jamie and Steph got us is up, all of her clothes are folded and sorted into drawers according to size, and the bird decals will be put up tonight. Holy smokes we are having a baby! I can't wait to meet her and I hope everyone else is excited to.
This post got WAY longer than I intended (sorry!) thanks to all of you that actually got through it. Also a HUGE thank you to all of my wonderful family and friends that are so supportive and loving, I don't know what we do without you in our lives. Have a wonderful week everyone!

The Best 2 Years
Yesterday marked the 2 year anniversary of my sealing to the most amazing man in the world. I can't believe it has already been that long since my wedding! Josh is such a wonderful person who teaches me so much every day. I don't know what I would do without him in my life.
Happy Anniversary darling! I love you!

Single Digits
It's official! I am 31 weeks pregnant today.... which means I only have 9 weeks left! It is so crazy how time has flown by, now I just hope it keeps flyin'. I am ready to meet my little Anna (well almost). I'm excited to have a couple of showers in the next two months and get even more ready for her arrival and it's only about 9 weeks away!
