shower

Well, tomorrow is Jackie's bridal shower and I still haven't posted about my baby shower last weekend, so I suppose I should do that! I've also had some CA-requests to post more pictures of me, so we'll go picture based for this post.



pic 1: although it was a shower for the twins, good friends katie and joelle are also pregnant. katie: 30 weeks, me: 28 weeks, and joelle: 9 weeks.












and of course, the mom pic...











and the momS pic...












and one must always have a silly group shot...
















hosts Jackie, Brianne, and Danielle on the left, me (obviously, if you don't know me why are you reading this blog?), and Joelle.







it was a very fun shower. jackie set up the camera on a tripod with a little remote to take the pictures, which is why we got all these fun ones. (plus it served as an excellent trial run for her wedding!) and these pics are all in danielle's room with little banners that brianne sewed and which matched the invitations (which she also sewed - crazy-ness!)

there was also very dana-themed munchies which was fun - although I drink water 99.9% of the time, they had all my other favorite drinks - milk, chocolate milk, lemonade, something that was delicious and red, extra delicious when I mixed it w/ my lemonade... and then there was of course the PB&J which i've eaten a LOT of while prego, chicken strips and ranch which are an all time fav (okay, except the first trimester), my favorite cookies, etc.

and there were even dana-themed games that the girls made up including mathematical equations and blog trivia. It was hard! I only got a 40%! I apparently don't remember what week the babies were the size of nutterbutters covered in chocolate * the number of babies I'm having (okay, I knew that part) + how many weeks pregnant I was when I did a triathlon!

anyways, it was super fun. I also received a million gifts which we've put in the nursery and are trying to not put away until we write thank you cards for them. So, come Tuesday all my kids will be done with finals and I'll have a little more free time which shall go toward thank you card writing and cleaning and then, finally then, I'll take some pictures to show you all how cute it is. because, man is it cute! (imho) ;)

PS blogspot said i should change my template. so I did. not sure if it's better, but it's different!
