Finn's Room is Finally Finished!!!

Back in October, I told Jeff I wanted to have Finn's room complety finished by the first of March.  That did not happen, but I'm pretty proud of us for getting it finished before April!  I had no idea how particular about his room I would end up being, but it was worth it all.  I do still want to get a small table to go beside the chair and possibly a lamp, but otherwise his room is complete and I love it!  All that's missing is Finn, hopefully he'll wait a few more weeks before joining us, but not too long...:-)

Finn's Shower

On Saturday, three of my best friends in the world Alicia, Amanda, and Kristy threw a baby shower for me and Finn.  So many people were able to come and I can't imagine how it could have been better.  Finn got lots and lots of cute things and it was fun visiting with everyone.  Here are some pictures from the day....



Me and the girls..
 The food!
 Best cake ever! Mickey's is my favorite and I loved seeing his monogram..
 Me and my sister, Laurie. 
 Mom, Me and Laurie
 Amanda Rhea made these letters for Finn's room.  They turned out so cute and look awesome over his changing table.

Two cute outfits from Jeff's sister
 A bouncey seat, yay!
He got lots and lots of other cute things, but I don't have pictures of everything.  I am working on a post of the progress in the nursery and will most likely include some more gifts in that post.
