Jae's Dallas Shower-- given by Sisters/Bev and Mom/Friends

Dan's mom and sister flew in to help host Jae's baby shower. The hostess were my sisters, Dan's sisters, Bev, and my dear friends from FC --Kristen, Kristina, and Catie. We got the most sentimental gifts---almost every hostess made something for Jae---I feel blessed that she will have women like this in her life. Not only are all of these women of God--they are all super domestic! And we all know that Jae's momma will most likely not be making her burp clothes or slings anytime soon! We were so happy to have Dan's family here for a week of fun! It's hard to believe that this was back in October--wow how I have grown!!!
























4D Sono with family!























Jae's Paris Shower

My Aunt Becky, Aunt JoNel, and Aunt Janene gave us a shower in Paris. We were so excited because it was a surprise to find out that we would have a Paris shower. They did such a sweet job--including the adorable cake!! I was able to see dear friends---friends I played volleyball with, my coach, friends that helped raise me in our church, and sweet family. We loved this shower!! Thank you to everyone!!




















Birthing--who knew there was SO much to know?!?

We attended a birthing class a few weeks ago. We got there at 8:40 and didn't leave until 6:30pm!! But we loved it. Mm--maybe Dan didn't appreciate being the example for the labor positions. However this was hilarious to our group of about 25. We learned so much from the staff and the Douala that taught it. They went into detail about the entire process--even bringing in the anaesthesiologist-Baylor L&D has four of them and they ONLY work in L&D---meaning they are experts! We also learned that Baylor downtown is the only hospital in our area that has a level 3 nicu---which translates to me that they are GOOD with babies! We loved the staff we met and we can't wait to bring Jae into the world at Baylor. Plus it doesn't hurt that they have completely renovated the postpartum rooms (not pictured). Dan can't wait to turn on his flat screen!

Worthington Diaper Shower

My sweet friend Noemi got a few of the girls in our building and my sweet sisters together to give Jae a diaper shower. The impressive thing is that Noemi is getting her docterate and is a wife and a mother. How she had the time to do this--I have no idea! We have such sweet neighbors and we had such a good time with everyone--and were VERY thankful to see all the little diapers that I know Jae will need!!! Plus my mom just happened to still be in town from our mother/daughter/son weekend we had while poor Dan studied and wrote papers.
