Baby Shower- Bark Park

For the last three years Mike has been taking Emma to the dog park every Saturday and Sunday at 8:00am. He and Emma have become two of the regulars there. Emma is not always the best at socializing with new dogs but she has stolen everyone's heart and apparently so has Mike! All the women there love him. I don't frequent the dog park because as I said earlier, Emma isn't always the best at meeting new playmates and I don't enjoy the fear of what she might do. I did however take her there once on my own and all I heard was, "Hi Emma, where is Mike?" I don't think this was anything against me I just think they all really enjoy him!


Well this morning they had a baby shower for Mike at the dog park. I just thought this was the niciest thing and he was excited to show me the little outfits. I will definetly have to wake up early next weekend (yes, I normally don't even budge while Mike gets up and goes... I have an excuse!) and go with Mike and Emma to thank the fellow dog lovers.



I don't have any pictures of the Bark Park Party but here is a picture of Emma making herself comfortable in the baby's room.

Baby Shower

This Sunday was not only the Super Bowl but it was also our Baby Shower... and it was wonderful! Mike, Baby Krepps, and I have the best family and friends we could ask for. There were lots of well wishes and bits of advice given as well as tons of gifts. I was lucky to be able to sit in between Baby Krepps' two GREAT grandmothers while I opened the presents...

I can't wait for her to meet them!

Thank you to everyone who put time and effort in to making this day memorable and perfect.

Even though I was exhausted last night after the shower and the later Superbowl festivities I could hardly sleep. All I wanted to do was get up and start going through everything and getting the baby's room organzied! I spent much of today doing just this. Maddie also came over to help with some of the organizing and gave me some Grandmotherly advice like, "you need more crib sheets" and "you need more long sleeve onesies". We then promtly went to the store to get these necessary items! Now all we need is for the furniture to be delivered... oh yeah, and the baby!
