Baby Shower

My cousin Jonna and my Aunt Kris threw me such a fun baby shower last weekend. I only have pictures of the decor... (someone was suppose to take pictures of me and the guests, but for some reason it just did not happen, SORRY!) but it was a really good turn out. I loved having all my family here to celebrate and I got some really great stuff for the babe. Thanks Jonna and Kris. It was such a cute shower and I had a lot of fun, and was only mildly sick ;)

I loved the theme.

I wish i could think of cute stuff like this.

So grateful for all the support we have gotten. We are getting excited. Hopefully just a few weeks left!!

My husband has a few obsessions... cufflinks. (another post, another day) Shoes. And ties. He organized them last night. He got rid of a some and here is what is left of his collection. Just one of the little things that is very endearing to me.

32 Weeks

It's true I am pregnant...super pregnant. But since I don't get out of the house much due to sickness, thought I would share the progress going on here in the Rich home. We have started on the nursery, (which will be posted when it is finally done.) I am still pretty sick (still have and iv in my arm, blah!) ,but the good news is, my overall health and the babies seems to be coming along fine so far. Some fun things are coming up, including my family in town, so more post to come soon.

Baby is coming in 10 weeks...

We have so much to do before this little boy comes, which includes picking out a name. Which we have not done. We need nursery decor, diapers, wipes, nursing supplies, onesies, socks, car seat, jogging stroller, regular stroller, the list goes on and on. We are making progress but here are some of the exciting things that have been purchased in the Rich home so far for this little guy.

This Glider

White furniture, something I love in Kid's rooms

I am hesitant to buy a ton of clothes for a newborn who just grows out of them, but this outfit was a must purchase.

I purchased this diaper bag from Etsy.com It is very much my style.

My talented cousin Jonna is making all of our crib bedding using one of these fun prints.. We have not finalized anything yet, but you get the idea. Check her out on http://fingersandtoes08.blogspot.com/

I am getting very excited for this baby to get here. I am still on the IV and am still sick on pretty much a daily basis. It has been nice not working, but I am definitely ready to get into a routine and feel HEALTHY again. Also ready to have this little boy here. Marty and I have waited far too long for this, so a couple more months is feeling like an Eternity.

I feel very blessed and sick :)

Marty turned 30 and here is how he and his boys celebrated:

4 TV's, Boys, and Pizza. I think they had a lot of fun. Happy Birthday!

2011 year in review

This year had been so amazing, it is hard to rap up. 2011 included:
-Lots of Family in Town- Jill Jackson Wedding, Dave Christison Wedding, Steve Dent Wedding, Bob Christison Wedding, Summer Fun, and December Arizona Trip.
-Ran a Half Marathon
-Ran a 10k
-Went to Europe
-Went to Mexico
-4 trips to the hospital and a permanent IV (thanks to baby boy rich)
-Got Pregnant

It has been a year full of big events! I got to see my family pretty much every other month, I got to see parts of the world I never imagined I would see, I got to challenge myself and reach some amazing goals, and the best thing of all I got pregnant with this baby boy. It has been a year full of good friends, family, and travel. Looking back on it all reminds me of how great life is. 2012 I will become a mother. A whole new kind of adventure. New Years Resolutions: Be grateful.

Favorite Things

Volume Four:

Fireworks- 4th of July is my favorite holiday...even more then Christmas. I am counting down the days until summer.

Only real craving I have had during pregnancy. I plan to give it up after the baby comes, but for now I am enjoying every sip.

Covergirl Blush.

Coach Bags- My cute hubby got me 2 of these for Christmas. Black and Grey. They are really good quality so I don't have to switch out my bag all the time, they are stylish, and still somewhat affordable. I love them.

Rich Baby Boy's first animal. How cool is this elephant. My sister in law Trina made this and when you shake it, it rattles. I especially love the argyle. :) Thanks Trina!!
