The nursery is almost complete!!! Here's what we have so far...

I must say that I've been feeling a little...well, VERY...anxious lately. But, my parents came to my rescue this past weekend...aka Nana and Popi. They came in from Canada to help decorate Naaman's nursery. Everything you see here has nothing to do with me and everything to do with my Mom's creativeness...I think it turned out pretty darn cute! We worked them both to death while they were here...and not only did we work on the nursery, but we also re-landscaped the front flower beds, painted and put up new shutters, and changed the front door and iron work from green to black. Thank you Nana and Popi...you're AWESOME!!!

A couple's shower to celebrate Baby Naaman Jack!

Our VERY best friends hosted a couples shower for us a couple weeks ago. We are SO blessed to be surrounded by such special people to share our most exciting time with! Everything was perfect! Thank you Tye and Kris for opening up your lovely home and huge back yard for the occasion. And thanks to Brian and Jenn and Tim and Shelli for all your hard work. Nate and Kim...we missed you!

We're so glad Crew was able to make it to his best friend's party!!! I can't wait for the two of them to meet and play together for many years to come...

Brad had to grab a beer before the opening of the presents could begin...this part wasn't nearly as fun for him as it was for me...he just wanted to hang out and drink with his boys...I guess he's getting it all in while he still can!
He did like this cute outfit which says..."Daddy's Little Wingman"!

But...his most favorite gift of the evening was the bottle of Cazadores Tequila...he was passing out shots to everyone towards the end of the night! Slow down there turbo...
It was nice to have my parents come in from Canada for the big event...here they are hanging out with some of the Dickies clan. We miss you more than you know Nana and Popi!!!

The girls mingling...of course the guys were doing the same, only at a separate table!



Check out the diaper cakes...there must have been 7 0r 8 of these bad boys!!! I don't think I'll be needing to buy ANY size 2 diapers! What a nice party favor...

And what would a baby shower be without a huge ADORABLE cake? It was quite tasty...if I must say so myself!!!

I LOVED these invitations and had to share them too...

32 Weeks!

Brad is very good about taking belly shots...he does it when I'm least expecting it! I was standing in the kitchen with my shirt pulled up...I have been BLAZING hot lately...and out he pops his camera phone and snaps this shot...what a way to document our love product!!!

I wonder how long baby Naaman will think his Mom's a hottie???





I can't wait to read this to my sweet baby boy!!!
