showering erin's little man

A few days ago I got a very exciting weekend away to travel to Pennsylvania for my sister Erin's baby shower!



If you read Erin's blog you will know just how loved and anticipated this little boy is.  Last summer we thought that Ryan and Erin would be adopting a little one and we planned this shower for October.  Color everyone surprised when we found out in early September that she was pregnant and due in April!  Yay!!  The shower got bumped back a few months and I was thrilled to finally finish up the plans and enjoy celebrating our nephew-to-be.


Mom, Jenn, and I were able to spend the whole weekend with Erin and had so much fun seeing the nursery, shopping, and eating lots of amazing desserts.


At the shower Erin was beaming the whole time.  She is so sweet and obviously already in love with her little man.



Mom and I made this diaper cake for Erin - I just adore the cutie alligator!


In typical shower fashion, the pile of gifts was kind of overwhelming.  Everyone wants to spoil little man and his parents.  :-)



Turns out Erin has the most talented friends and family - she received 3 homemade blankets, all of which are gorgeous.


My mom made her this beautiful white crocheted blanket, just like she made for Asher and Hadley.  Such a special gift from Grammy.



We love you Erin and can't WAIT to meet little mister!!

a yankee at the park

I married Drew with no baseball loyalties and his whole family smelled an easy convert.  Honestly, I'm happy to support whatever team he likes - and our kids feel the same way.  :-)


We went to the park the other week during a special warm day and Hadley dressed to make her Daddy (and Grandpa.  and uncles.)  proud.



She was so stinkin' cute and got lots of attention at the park.  ha!



I love that she's old enough to explore and play and want to do a lot of things she shouldn't do yet.  Her walking is coming along and once she's more reliable the park will be even more fun.





Go H!

a baby in a basket

Waaaay back in the fall I took some test shots of Hadley in the basket to see if it would work for her "hot air balloon" pics.  No sense in buying a bunch of balloons if she didn't fit or screamed in fear when I put her in the thing, right?  Well, I totally forgot about posting these and needed to because they are just too cute.





Little miss loved her cozy basket. 





I can't believe this was before her first birthday and now she's 16 months.  Sweet Hadley - love her!
