the waiting game.

I think the worst part about the end of pregnancy is the waiting around part...the guessing game of when it's going to happen.. I go to bed every night thinking "ok, tonight could be the night" and then I wake up again in the morning having not gone into labor, partially relieved, partially disappointed! So I'm trying to keep busy lots of shopping, walking, organizing, cooking...Oh, and if you need a great oatmeal cookie recipe, I made these from Smitten Kitchen and they were perfect! I added craisins, dark chips & almonds..

summertime.

A collection of summertime photos..I have been enjoying my last few weeks of pregnancy with plenty of lakeside BBQ-ing, beach trips, nursery prep, and time spent with friends & family...It feels sort of bittersweet, truly like the end of a chapter of my life and the beginning of a new one!

baby shower!!



The stunning addition on the lake house we rent was finished just in time for our baby shower this past weekend. We had a beautiful day and could not have been more blessed by our friends and family who attended and helped out!! My Mom made the new room even more gorgeous with her arrangements for the tables combining wildflowers with roses and some flowers from her garden.





 The food was really delicious (brunch themed) and the desserts were so pretty! My Mom made carrot cakes and my friend Casey made some really lovely cupcakes which guests took home with them. We received wonderful gifts for our baby from generous friends and family.
















 







 "Ready to pop" kettle corn favors!





It was a pretty even vote on the gender of the baby..I think "boy" won out by just a hair! 

Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who helped out and attended!! Baby Little will be arriving sometime in the next month or so and can't wait to meet you all :)
