Zoo Day

Chris finally had a day off so we decided to go to the zoo.
It was the last day of the butterfly exhibit so we had to take Drakey.
He loved it!
The butterfly's are just flying all around so he got a little nervous at times.

Drake's not so sure about one on his head.

He liked holding them in his hand though.

Chris caved and got Drake a black (well purple) panther
(one of those wax animal things),
Drake was so excited so here he is showing it off.

Kids Room

We finally put the kids room together!
Baby girl will be staying in our room for the first little while,
but I wanted to get everything set up in the kids room so Drake can get used to it.
We flipped his bed so it is now a loft,
he thinks it is so cool and calls it his firetruck.
Not really sure why since it is blue and all, but we are going with it.
We put his toys under his bed so that is his own special place and he seems to like it.
The room is a little squishy,
but I think it will work out.
It also isn't very girly, but I don't think she will mind too much.
Hopefully.....

Baby Shower!

Today my wonderful, amazing friend Rosanna threw me a baby shower!
It was so much fun and meant so much to me!
I wasn't expecting anyone to throw me a shower so I was thrilled when Rosanna offered.
She is such a amazing friend
and I don't know what I would do without her out here in Wisconsin.
It is comforting to know being away from family
that people out here care enough to come to my shower.
Thank you girls for coming and giving me such amazing, cute things for our baby girl.
It makes me even more excited to get her here!
I meant to get a picture of everyone who came,
but of course forgot.
I remembered after almost everyone had left
so I quickly got a picture of the few girls that were left.
Thanks so much Rosanna!
And thank you to all the wonderful girls who came!

Rosanna and me.

The adorable diaper cake Rosanna made for me.
I also got a ton of clothes and such which I definitely needed.
Thanks again everyone!
You don't know how much it meant to me.
