Showered with love!!

We've been absolutely showered with love by our friends and family as we get ready for Taylor's arrival! My co-workers had a shower for us on October 15th and several of our dear friends hosted another shower for us in North Little Rock on October 26th. We have SO much to be thankful for!!

NLR Shower Hostesses - Elaine, Mrs. Ward, Mrs. Barry, Mrs. Partridge (me) (Beth and Mrs. Wingfield could not be there - but we really appreciate all they did to help with such a lovely shower!) As you can see, everything was beautifully perfect down to the tiniest details!!

8 month update!


32 week pic


This is about the extent of my craftiness and thankfully I had some help along the way! Mom, Cindy and I painted these canvases for Taylor's room!


The finished products....haven't decided where to hang them yet though!


Here's a sneak peek of the nursery bedding/furniture...It's finally starting to look like a little girls room....could it be all the PINK?!?!

Baby Shower - Taylor Elizabeth Stroud








My college friends hosted a beautiful shower for us this weekend! It was such fun and we were thoroughly spoiled! Taylor is one lucky little girl already. We are so fortunate to have such wonderful friends celebrating this exciting time with us and helping us get ready for Taylor!

Nursery






Well...the nursery is definitely a work in progress, but it's finally coming along! Jay has been out of town quite a bit on business, but as you can see, I had plenty of help getting things done since I couldn't wait to get started!! I couldn't have done it without them!

7 month pic - DISCLAIMER: Please don't laugh at the hair...these pics were taken because we were just practicing using our new camera....I wasn't intending for this to be my "belly pic"! But things have been pretty busy around here (hence the way over due post) and we never got another one taken...so this will have to do!
