Well I'm at 34 weeks and doing well. I went to the doctor last Wednesday though and about freaked out when he told me that I had gained 8 pounds in 2 weeks! I have not been gaining much (I'm trying hard to keep it down) so when I hadn't changed my eating habits and gained 8 lbs I started crying in the room with Steve. Then I looked down and saw that giant sausages had replaced what were formerly my feet. I was bummed. But luckily when the doctor came in, he explained that most of my weight gain was probably from water retention. That made me feel a little better. So I am battling a little water retention but other than that, we are doing well.
Well the following pictures are from the last 2 showers I have had out here. Two gals from church threw me a church shower on May 17 and then my room mom got together with some other moms in my class and threw me a surprise shower on May 22. Both were awesome.
Some of the ladies that came to my shower.
The food table. We had a graham cracker, marshmallow, and fruit chocolate fondue, along with cake and punch. Yummy!
The cake. One of the gals that threw the shower was not happy about what she called the "butt shaped pee stain" in the corner. I thought it was cute.
The present table. We are blessed!
The centerpieces. Cute!

One game we played was "guess what was in the diaper." Here is Ashley about to take a little sample. I think she wanted to win this one bad. :)
After each game, I got a present along with the winner. Here are some burp clothes.
Getting into a basket of laundry goodies.
This is a diaper wreath another creative lady at church made me. Plus a few toys for decoration.
A very cute homemade bib a lady at our church makes.

These next pictures are from my surprise shower at school.
Some balloons they bought me.
One mom had the idea to give the kids ring pops to use as 'pacifiers.' Here are some kids showing off theirs.
Some more 'babies.' :)
Some more kids using their 'pacifiers.'
This is the basket of goodies the families from my classroom put together for my shower. It was so sweet of them!!
