It's been awhile...

Ok Ok...so It's been awhile...I've been asked to post pictures of the Nursery so here we go. I've been so swamped the past two months preparing for the little ones arrival I have had absolutely no time to update our blog. So I'll give you a quick synopsis now.


Tamera threw us a Baby Shower back on April 12th. We had the party at Alfy's Pizza in Lynnwood. It was a fun day! Mom and Dad came up from Oregon and my Ladies came into town from Idaho...My girl Cidney even flew in from San Fancisco! We had a lot of fun. Especially after the beer and wine started flowing...I felt so blessed as one of my best friends Chris Shoemaker and his Mom, Marilyn, even made a guest appearance as it was his very first baby shower ever!! I never thought I'd see that guy Scrapbooking in my life...but I thank you for doing so!!
Thank you Tamera for all the hard work you did and to Ray's parents for taking care of the rental of the space and all the pizza!!
And, Yes Chris...I will make sure that Noelani knows you bought her her first car!!

Then on April 18th my work threw me a Baby Shower which was also a ton of fun!! We gathered in the conference room after work and played some games and ate some food and cake. Again I had a few guys that came that had never attended a Baby Shower before...Thank you Russ and Peter for taking part!

Ray and I took all of our classes at Swedish hospital during the month of April and I think we both learned a lot....even Ray learned some things at the Breastfeeding class...Ray took lots of notes and will be there to remind me of everything I will have forgotten...My brain is shrinking daily remember?? :)
We toured the Swedish Hospital on May 3rd which was a lot of fun. There will be plenty of room in the room for everyone!! I'm still trying to find out if my 'Guests' can partake in the jacuzzi tub or not...I'll keep you all posted. :)

Also on May 3rd my Step-Sister Teresa and Step-Mom Barb threw me another Baby Shower at Barb's house. It was a fun afternoon. Ray got to meet a bit more of our crazy family and again I'm left feeling like he fits like a glove! Especially now that he's found a fellow Packer he can bond with...Thank you Jacob. As soon as I get some pictures from the this last baby shower I'll post them here for you. Thank you Barb and Teresa for all your support!!!
Noelani is going to be one very spoiled little girl!!!


Even Kea is ready for this little girls arrival...Ray installed the car seat in the car this week and Kea is already waiting for her arrival...



As of this coming Monday we are down to 3 short weeks before her arrival!! We have the time and date scheduled for Monday, June 2nd at 2:30 PM at Swedish in Ballard.
Thank you everyone for all your help and support these past 9 months!! We could not have done it without you.

I'll post some more belly pics this next week so you can all see my at maximum capacity...It's the only time I'll ever be proud to be this big!!
