Jenn made the cutest diaper cakes!

So...Amy made her impression again! She coordinated the most magnificent baby shower I have ever been to in my entire life! It happened to be my own. Between all my sisters, my Mom Jenn, and Leighanne, this day turned out to be more than I had dreamed. There were about 50 guests that showed up that I didn't even know what to do with myself. The second I started talking to someone, I had to turn around to say hello to another friend or family member. I was so excited. The games that we did play were fun. Not lame at all! We had a Celebrity Baby Game where ya had to guess which celebrity baby was which. We also had a clothespin game, that you could not say the words 'Baby, Boy, or Brayden' or ya get your pin stolen (it got funny). The guessing of the jelly belly baby bottle and a diaper raffle too! The diaper raffle was a complete success! We have got more diapers than I think we will even use. They are being stored by the box and bag full in the garage! Most everyone decorated a onesie, which turned out to be so stinkin cute! I can't beleive the how many gifts we received for Brayden ~ it was insane! After such a long day though, Eric and I only had the strength to carry them up to the second floor of our house. They never made it to the 3rd story to Braydens room. So when I came downstairs on Monday morning I exclaimed, "Eric, Santa came!" It was like Christmas when your 5 years old, but better! Amy came over and we spent about 3 hours just sorting out the gifts. Between sizes of clothes, duplicates that needed to be returned to stores, and all the little goodies we got, we thought we would never reach the end. But we eventually did and I am happy to say that his room is almost complete! Teh pictures are hung, the bed is made, and the closet is close to organized. Now, I am finishing up thank you cards and hopefully get them out tomorrow. We will see... All together, the whole thing was amazing! Thank you Amy, Mom, Teresa, Brandi, Jenny, Kylee, Jenn, and Leighanne, and EVERYONE who came!

The Cake... it had babies too (petifores were amazing!)

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

Monday turned out great! Amy met Eric and I at Shaw's Cove in Laguna Beach for a photo shoot. It was awesome. Amy did a better job than I could have asked for! The sunset was perfect, the lighting was just right, and we all got quite a few laughs out of it. Amy caught the best of us, and the giant belly! Eric and I are in love with the pictures and they are already up in every room of the house. Soon, we can replace those ones with the real baby pictures. Can't wait for Amy to capture our new pride and joy with that magical lens of hers.
