Here is my big belly at almost 38 weeks! Went to the doc yesterday and he said if she doesn't come before the 7th (my due date is the 14th) then i can elect to induce anytime after the 7th. He seems to think she will be here before then, but i am not so sure! Can't wait to post pictures of her! I know i look so fabulous, this is in the kitchen right before bed time (and right after i ate the bowl of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream!)
This is the most wonderful stroller! It can face me or turn the other direction, it has a seat that fully reclines for when she is new and goes different levels all the way to sitting up straight. It also doubles as a jogger/walker as well as an everyday stroller which is so nice. And ofcourse i LOVE the bright lime green!!! It also comes with a sun sheild(much needed), a rain sheild and a foot muff warmer : ) and my carseat attaches into it.

The view we will have when she is first born, looking at her precious face! Probably screaming at me!

Shower at the Bank

Here i am talking about something ( arent' i always yapping?) The Bank hosted a shower and it was absolutely way too much and i can't thank everyone enough! My mother in law said, after seeing all the food, gifts and sweet coworkers,"no wonder you love working here!" I do love working here because i work with great people and they have watched my belly grow from 14 weeks until now at 37 and been so supportive.

...the food was incredible, everybody pitched in and made something. I love the diaper cake too! What a cute idea? She surrounded it with receiving blankets and baby products as well.

My sweet mother in law and the 'end of the work day greasy me'! Everyone failed to tell me how nasty i was looking and that i could have used a brush or maybe i don't know some color in my face! But it's okay because we had so much fun. My good friend carol in the background looking clueless for the moment!

If you ever come to visit in Clarksdale you must have some Sally/Alice Chow cake. I can't even explain how delicious they are. I thought this was so cute i almost didn't want to eat it! yeah, i got over that one real fast and had a huge piece!!!

This was a come and go shower and supposed to be cake and food and enjoy each others company, but everyone was so nice to bring all these wonderful gifts. We got so many beautiful and practical things! I washed them all that night and put them up just in case we needed them. Thank you, again to everyone! And i'll be back to work soon...

Allie Harris's Baby Room!!!

Here is where i will be spending a lot of my time! In the most comfortable chair ever! I just sit in it and rock and wait for her to get here very, very soon!
The room is large, approximately 21 x 13 so we had plenty of room to go ahead and put her little farm table and chairs given to us by some of my mom's friends. If she is like me though, there won't be many tea parties, more like coloring it black or something horrific like that! Mom says payback is great...

The double bed is an antique from graydon's side and it is actually his sisters, but we are borrowing it for a while! We found fabric to match and coordinate with everything in the room and i am so happy with how it all turned out.

And here is the grand entrance, the first thing you see is here beautiful bed and her little name on the wall. We are so blessed and we can't thank my mom enough for coming down and redecorating literally our whole house! just by moving things around and bringing in a few new things she made it our home and we thank her for that. Allie Harris will be here in around 4 weeks!!!
