Storey Family Baby Shower

Here are some of the pictures from the Storey Family baby shower on November 2.

My sister-in-laws were so great to plan this for me.

I had a great time and am so grateful for all the wonderful gifts

.

This is one of the frogs that goes on the Mobile.

The frogs are so cute!

I just love all the soft blankets, you can never have enough.

This is one of the blankets that matches the bedding in the crib.
More frogs!


Long sleeve onesies, you can always use these.

Sleep and play outfits are the best.


I just love the sleep saks.


More blankets!

The Nursery

Here are some pictures of the nursery.

Since we did not find out the gender of the baby we decided to go with a neutral decor.

We really love the ducks, dragonflies and frogs.

The frog and dragonfly are so cute.

This is the crib and changing table we pick at Target.

The crib is a 4-in-1.

Which means that it will change from a crib to a toddler bed, day bed and a full bed

The color is espresso - a really dark brown

If the baby is a boy then we are going to leave the Cardinal stuff up.

However, if the baby is a girl than we are going to take down the Cardinal stuff and make the room a girls room.

Since we got the crib and changing table at Target there was no chest to match.

So we found a bookcase that matched and bought baskets for storage. The changing table has the same baskets. It was Michael idea and I just love it.

This is the glider that Michael's parents bought for us. I picked it out at Babies R Us.
It is their tradition to buy each one of their kids a glider for the first baby.
I just love it! It is so comfy, I can't wait to rock the baby in it.
The blanket is a gift from Michael's Brother Rich and his wife Kim.
Kim makes the blankets. It is so cute!
Striped to match the bedding and solid yellow on the other side.

Couples Baby Shower

Here are some of the pictures from the couples baby shower that our friends Lisa, Steve and Jenny threw us on November 9. It was so nice of them to do that for us. We have some great friends!!

Baby clothes are sooo cute!

Mattress protector, have to have that.

Baby slippers, hooded bath towel and wash cloth, I can't wait to use them

I am not so sure of Michael is really interested in the gift we are getting or the football game on TV on the other side of the room.

Bottles so Daddy can help feed too

Football or the blanket you decide which is more interesting

Update

Well, it has been a while since I have posted an update. The last time I posted was week 20. I am now at week 34. Michael and I are so excited about the changes the baby is making. We can't believe how much the baby moves. I think it is so cute when the baby gets the hick-ups. Which is happening more and more often now. We are so excited that the baby will be here soon. We still have not found out the gender of the baby. However, we will let you know as soon as we find out, when the baby arrives. The baby is doing great

We finally finished the nursery. We have decided not to paint the room. We are living in an apartment right now, hopefully in the next year we will be moving into a house. So then we will paint and make the room a great place. Pictures soon

I have also had three showers. My family, Michael's family and a couples shower given by my friends. pictures soon
