Nesting

I've been waiting for it to kick in, and the arrival of our stroller and car seat really did it to us.  Jared has already installed the base into the backseat of our car and tested the car seat out with a ten pound dumbbell.  He collapses and re-opens our stroller probably 3 times a day.  We also have our cradle set up and it looks so cute by the window with the perfect little quilt made by my mom in it.  We might be jumping the gun just a bit considering we still have 4 weeks, but we were just too excited to wait any longer.

My 35 week belly!
On a side note:
 I graduated! Jared took me out for a celebration dinner
 and I wanted a picture of myself as a pregnant graduate,
even though I opted out of the cap and gown.

My sweet friend, who is way too talented, put together the most perfect baby shower.   As you can tell from the pictures it was beautiful, and the food was even better than it looks.  I had such a fun time and am so grateful to all of my friends for spoiling this baby and me.  I'm still not used to the fact that I'm pregnant, so attending a baby shower that was for me really felt kind of crazy.  It made me so excited for him to come, it feels way more real now that my house is full of baby things.
