Just a Little Sprinkle!

This past weekend my sister threw a "baby sprinkle" to welcome Little Miss Emily! Those of you who don't know what a sprinkle is...it's like a baby shower but not as over-the-top. Sometimes people have "sprinkles" when they have babies of the same sex close together...and therefore don't need too much. Or sometimes they are given after the baby is born to welcome the new little one. Ours was a little of both. I felt really stupid having a baby shower when I have triplet girls only 13 months prior to Emily, and SO many people were so generous to us, I just didn't feel it was right to expect anything more! But I didn't want Emily to think she wasn't important and that no one cared about spoiling her!

So here are some pictures from Saturday at my parent's house!







It was a small group, but those who could come, I truly appreciate it!





Em got her own Pooh from Grammy!









My sister threw a great party with great food! Emily got lots of nice gifts too...along with a few for Madelynn, Claire and Natalee!!















Claire was loving the chocolate cupcakes!







Thank you to everyone who came and all who sent gifts! We truly appreciate you spoiling our Little Miss E! We can't wait for everyone to meet her!

My 3rd Baby Shower!

On Saturday I had my final and last baby shower, thank goodness I could make it. My MIL threw it at her house and it was nice to see everyone from Tim's side of the family. I love his family and I think I see them more than I see my own extended family. So it was just a small shower with family and a few close friends.

We had some really great food and Tim's Aunt Terry made our beautiful cake, unfortunately though my camera was acting up and would not self focus...I later realized it was because of the low battery..whoops! So we only have a very blurry photo of it, but it said "Welcome Babies" in purple and green!



We got some cute gifts, which included hair barrettes, socks, clothes, onesies, burp cloths, swaddle-me's, breast pump with hundred accessories and one of our cribs! Tammy, my MIL, bought us one and my parent's just bought us one also, so we now will have two...and hopefully soon! I cannot wait until they come in and Tim can start putting them together! We aren't going to worry about the other one for awhile. The girls will be in their pack-n-play for awhile, and then we'll move them to one big crib and then maybe do two in one, and one in the other for awhile. We'll just have to wait and see, but we are so blessed not to have had to buy all three.  Also, Tim's sister, Megan sent us the single and double snap-n-go strollers this week, since she lives in NM and couldn't be here for the shower.

This is Tim's Aunt's (minus one, who lives in FL), his Nana and me (my MIL is next to me in the pretty sweater).

We still have a lot to get though...bumpers, mobiles, a glider, a diaper pail, a monitor....and so much more! I used a few gift cards for a few other things, but with three babies, it's amazing how fast that money goes! None the less, we are so appreciative!

It was a great shower! And we are so thankful for all the wonderful gifts!

CAR SEATS!!!!

AHH, I just love them..even in pink, I can't help it!!!!!
I have waited my whole life to bring home a baby from the hospital and soon enough, in less than 8 short weeks, hopefully we will be bringing our three beautiful little girls home in these super cute car seats! I have to admit, Tim and I were overwhelmed with emotions once again when we finally got all three out of the boxes and sat them next to each other....WE'RE HAVING THREE BABY GIRLS IN 8 WEEKS!!!!!! I couldn't help but just be giddy and jump up and down!!!  We are so blessed but we still can't believe this is our life!!
