Mac's Nursery

Here is his room!! I LOVE LOVE It!!  I describe it as vintage and rustic.  Thank you to all of our family and friends!   I videoed this from my iphone and the quality isn't as clear as it was on my phone. If anyone is interested in the custom painting please let me know!

It was done by my childhood neighbor Mary Beth Hyman.

Enjoy!!

Ready or not Mac's about to come!!!!

I went to the doctor yesterday for my 38 week appointment and I got great news!!  I am dilated to a two and 50% effaced!!  This morning there other signs he is getting ready to rock on out, but I don't want to gross out my prebaby readers.  Our only problem is Mike is out of town until Saturday morning, so I informed little man to hold out until then.  Mike's orders are to "sit on the couch with my legs crossed!" HAHA  I am staying pretty stationary writing thank you notes because I need my man by my side for this.  Saturday afternoon we will hit the walking trails!  I cannot even explain my thoughts right now.  I have read some blogs this week that have made me realize I can do this!!  I am not scared anymore and just want him safe and in our arms.  The prayers are working friends and family, so keep them coming.  I haven't really worried about motherhood, but delivery I have stressed until this week.  Like Mike says "We got this babe!"  So here goes nothing baby Mac!!  I hope you are ready for a wild ride with your parents and crazy dogs.

Love you already!

DC Baby Shower "Sweet new baby coming aboard!"



March 5, 2011

I know I say it a lot, but I am one lucky gal. 

I have been here a little over a year and have been blessed with amazing friends.  They hosted a lovely shower this past weekend.  The food was delicious and my favorite thing was the CUPCAKES!!!  I may or may not have eaten two a day since Saturday.....  They were the best cupcakes I have had in this area.  My sister in law Jamie and niece Mae came down from New York and two of my best friends Ashley Brown and Jessica Hopkins came in from TN and NC.  I have been touched through this whole pregnancy with kindness and generosity by many wonderful people. 

Mac is one lucky boy!

Ashley and Jessica

Mums for the new "mum" as said by my New England gals and of course the CUPCAKES!!

My mother in law and Hillary had these adorable thank you notes made with my maternity pictures!

This was to funny to watch!  The girls had to race drinking out of a baby bottle.

Love you all!!

I can't wait for Mac to be touched by each of you!
