My baby shower

I'm just getting around to posting some pictures from it but it was wonderful! My mom, aunt and friends really outdid themselves. It was everything I wanted my baby shower to be and more. I couldn't have asked for a better day. I'm feeling pretty swollen these days so I don't even look like myself in my pictures. Geez! I didn't know you swell everywhere when you're pregnant. Anyway, here are some pictures of the day:



I've been taking pictures every week and my friends saved them and created a photo album for it. It was soo cute!

We always do baskets for each other for gifts and they gave me a basket of goodies. It was filled with tons of books, blankets, toys and bible stories. I loved it so much!


My cake! I finally revealed baby boy's name at the shower: Kendall. Since his father's name is Kennith, and I refused for my child to be a third, we agreed on Kendall. No middle yet but it's coming!


Cutting the cake. I swear I look so swollen in this picture. Everyone kept telling me how great I looked but I felt like crap. LOL


That's my mom on the left in blue and Ken's mom on the right. You can't tell my mother she isn't a diva. LOL Both his mother and my mother have very strong Native American blood running in them so our baby is going to definitely have a "native" look to him. LOL Plus his daddy is handsome so that helps. *wink*


I had my first story published when I was 7 years old. It was called "How a rainbow came to be". It's actually in the state library back in Hawaii where I grew up. My mom kept the original story all these years, had it framed for me to hang in Kendall's room. It was touched but should have figured my mom would do something like that. She keeps EVERYTHING. LOL

Well, today is July 1. Can't believe August is a month away yet I only have 36 days until my due date. Lord knows it would be great if I could make it until then but we'll see. If you leave it to everyone else, I'll be having this baby sometime between the 15 of July and the 25. I wouldn't count that out at this point. Especially not the way I've been having contractions.

Anyway, I think K finally ordered the furniture on sunday. He asked if that was what I wanted and I said yes. I need to remember to give him the $100 gift card for Target so that we can save some money on it. Hey, a little bit goes a long way.

I had another contraction last night around 2:30 am. It was pretty intense. I couldn't even move to grab the phone if I needed to. At this point its just a matter of anyday now. Myfriend Lex and his girlfriend Shay had their baby yesterday. Her water broke about 9 something and she delivered at 11:47. I'm so jealous! I hope my delivery is short but I have a feeling this boy is going to make a scene. He will be either a Leo or a Cancer so we'll see.

Only thing left to pick up is are some extra crib sheets and probably something for that bassient. Speaking of which I need to get it out of my house asap. I guess it can go to K's house.
