I had my baby shower this past Saturday. I'm currently 8 and a 1/2 months. The shower was perfect ~ I could not have asked for a better one. Unfortunately we had a freak snow storm that day so I was over an hour lateand some people didn't' show because of the snow. But in the end, everyone I wanted to be there was and I had such a wonderful time. My mom, Miriam, and Yasemin threw it for me. They all worked so hard and I could tell how much thought and love was put into every aspect of it. Words can not describe how loved I felt and how blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. I'm so grateful for all of the awesome presents.... but more importantly I'm so grateful that my friends and family braved the snow to celebrate Stella and me. I'm also so grateful to my friends who couldn't be there and sent me a present to let me know they were thinking of me. Saying thank you just doesn't seem enough.
It's so strange now because I had all of these events to look forward to before my due date, the last of which was the shower. Now that it is over, there is nothing left to do but wait for my little star to arrive. I feel so ready at this point. Thanks to everyone's generosity, we have everything we need pretty much and my bag is packed! I'll be resting and nesting from here on out, which I'm happy about. I'll be full term in 16 days so she can come anytime after that!! It still seems so amazing that in a few short weeks she will be here. Now I just pray for a complication free delivery and a healthy baby.
