Nursery ALMOST done...

His sweet little peaceful room is almost done! Just missing one rocking swivel chair in that corner and we are good to go. Ryan and I have pretty must done our nesting. All his clothes are washed and hung up by age and Ryan has begun putting his stuff together like his swing, stroller, etc....

It's so crazy to believe how close it is until the moment we get to hold him. I think I will probably be the one who is so overwhelmed with emotion because it's almost like I am going through the motions but still have a hard time believing this is real and lil man Caden is going to be OURS. We are so so ready....

Baby C's Shower

Sunday was a beautiful and perfect day! The weather couldn't have been better for people to enjoy, want to be outside, drive in, and embrace! It was perfect in every way. He had his aunts and grandmothers from both sides there celebrating him and relishing in the moment with me, which was an honor!!!

I was telling someone, I wish I could go back to all the baby showers I visited because as much as I loved being at them for friends, I have a different take completely now. It's such a special special day because you not only realize you are surrounded by love and support, but you realize your sweet little one is about to be here and all these little mementos and gifts are all for him. It was fun to go home and unpack and organize his room, knowing these would all be gifts that were a part of welcoming him into the world! Yay!

All the sugar cravings that has been making that sweet baby have those chubby cheeks! LOL...this seriously was heaven for me when I walked in! Yogurtland, White Choc Ras. Cake, Cupcake Couture, and American Cookie Company cookies!!!

My elephant obsession! They made a floral arrangement into an elephant!!

A lady off Etsy hand knitted the little stuffed animals! So sweet!!

The vintage bottles and straws!

Another craving, Diet Cherry Limeade (I have made many trips to Sonic for this!)

Chicken Salad Sandwiches...the list goes on!

Tomato Basil soup and grilled cheeses!

This is our newest extension of family, Loretta. She is retired but volunteers at St. James in Meemaw's unit because share cares passionately for elderly people who are memory impaired. She is so sweet and so patient and nurturing. We decided to ask her if she would give thought to keeping baby Caden one day a week, and she said she loves children and would love to be a part! So Caden will have another auntie in his life who will care deeply for him!!! We are so excited.

All Caden's goodies!

A few of the many faces of those who made the day so special for us!

The party favor bags, one of my favorites! They were filled with fresh lavender and had ELEPHANTS on them! I'm obsessed!

Last sonogram until 37 weeks!

Look at this sweet boy's FAT CHEEKS!!! I had really big cheeks as a baby...so looks like Momma might have taken charge on the chub cheek genes! LOL....

Here he is sound asleep even after coffee and sugar...I know, that's bad but I really wanted him to be alert and awake. The ultra sound tech was saying how amazed she was he was sleeping through it. We went through plenty of work this day from making two trips to visit her because he was face down to waking him up. He does what he wants when he wants. 

His foot is rather large! We are wondering still will he have his grandpa's height! His Bigdad is 6"4 and his great great grandfather was both 6"5. So we will see. This is a big foot!!

He has turned down and we are literally 6 weeks away from this baby boy's arrival! He also has a head full of hair, so the myth that indigestion is caused my extra hormones from hair growth could be true because I have had it bad!!!! Worth every little hair on that kid's head!
