Baby Sean's Nursery!

We are SO excited to share the pictures of Sean's western nursery. Jim came up with the idea of how to paint the walls and started on them in October. We have worked on it little by little , until it finally all came together just a few weeks ago. We have had so much fun working on the nursery and getting ready for our little buckaroo. Jim and I just love sitting in little Sean's room, talking about what it's going to be like when he is here. We can't wait to meet our sweet boy and to put the nursery to good use!

Baby Showers Galore!

I am very late with getting this post out. I have been a little preoccupied finishing up my semester with school, working, and getting ready for the baby. In November, I was so grateful to have three very special showers. The first one was back home in Baird, where Jim and I grew up. I then had a wonderful Dallas shower at La Madeline's, hosted by my dear friends from church. And last, but not least, was my work shower. I had SO much fun receiving all the precious clothes and essentials for baby Sean. We had even more fun getting it all home and organizing it in the nursery. Thanks so much to all my sweet friends and family members for showering me with so many wonderful gifts for our soon-to-be new arrival. We are so thankful for everything!
