Spring Happenings

This past Saturday I hosted a baby shower for Matt, Brooke, and sweet Baby E. Brooke is now just about 2 weeks away from her due date. We can hardly wait to meet her beautiful little angel.

At the shower we enjoyed some games, delicious food, and great company.



Brooke and Little E got some fantastic gifts. She is one lucky baby.

Can you believe Matt's sister made these?



Our babies will be exactly 4 1/2 months apart. I am so excited for them to become great little friends, and for us to experience being moms for the first time, together.

Saturday morning, we headed out to the end of our street to watch the marathoners run by. We saw many people we know, but were there mostly to cheer Rachel (Josh's sister) on. She did awesome! We live at mile 7.5, right where you are starting to get a titch uncomfortable, and she looked like she could have kept going all day. She is such a champ.

I have to admit, I was really sad I wasn't able to participate this year. It is for a good cause and I wouldn't trade it for anything, but I miss this run. I have done it the past few years and that morning I wanted to be out there with the rest of the runners again. I am excited for next year though, Baby and Josh will be out at the end of our street, waiting to cheer me on as I run by. I don't think anything could be sweeter more motivating.
