Oh baby Oh baby

Wow I have really slacked bigtime on this baby blog this month!! I have pretty much just been holding my breath watching the time go by so that she can grow bigger and bigger and I don't have to worry so much about the little monkey coming early! Some fun updates: we are both doing great so that is very exciting! I am starting to feel body parts in my belly! I can tell where her feet are and I can feel her head and her bum though I am not always sure which is which :-) She has been extremely active these days- pretty much moving non-stop from 4pm-1am. A few of her favorite things are: Maple Syrup, her daddy, and the Black Eyed Peas. These three things almost always elicit some sort of reaction for her. Maple syrup makes her roll, whenever Aaron is talking or tries to touch her its like I can literally feel her stop and try to listen and the black eyed peas get her moving like crazy!!! She dances right along to the beat!!

We had our first baby shower on Sunday! I will definitely be posting pictures and sharing more about this day in a post all of its own but I will say that I was completely overwhelmed by the generosity. There were soooooo many thoughtful gifts given to our Monkey that I don't even quite know how to say thank you!! We have been so blessed to be surrounded by so many friends and family through everything that Aaron and I have been experiencing the last few years and all of the support is very much appreciated!

I am hoping to work on her nursery a lot this weekend so will be posting more about the shower and the nursery very soon. I promise never to go a whole month without posting again!! I can't believe that she is due 9 weeks from tomorrow! I am sure it will fly by and I will be posting baby pictures and thinking that June seemed so long ago!!
