Grace's Nursery Phase II....

Here are some recent photos of Grace's Nursery. We are almost complete just waiting for our rocking chair to arrive and we are all set!!! Thank you to all of you who have helped to get us prepared for her arrival! We would not feel this prepared without your support and help! We truly feel so blessed!



Aunt Jessie got Grace this for her room we put it on her door. What a way to enter into a peaceful place! :-)

Here is Grace's bed from Nana and Papa Callies..

Here is where her rocker will go when it arrives...

Grace got Daddy this for for his first Father's Day....







Here is Grace's dresser from Nana and Papa Callies...

Here is Grace's changing table from Nana and Papa Callies and the saying that is pictured above...

Here are some personalized gifts Grace recieved they were very thoughtful and we know she will just love them!!!


H These are from Julia!

Here are some bibs that Nana Callies and Kristin picked out! I think they will suit her well!

Here is a very adorable onsie that Andy and Wendy Lange got us for a gift! We may have to bring her home in this one!

Here I am at 36 weeks....

36 weeks and counting Grace is doing great and her head is facing down so she is getting into position for the big day! I hope she will stay this way now! I think she is going to be born doing a yoga pose for how often I have been practicing while pregnant! :-) We are getting so excited for Grace to be here this next four weeks is going to tough as we anticipate her arrival, but we also are trying to take in the peace and quiet too! :-)

Shower continued...

Each group at a table was asked to create a onsie for Grace and to be creative. I picked the one I thought was most creative, however it was very hard and they all turned out so cute and creative. The winner I picked was the Brewers onesie because it was a game day that day and I thought it was very cute!! Thank you all very much for your creativity and designs.

Here is the winning onsis and here is my mom.....she took one for the team when she got poo in her hair!! :-)

Here are some pictures of me opening up some gifts....

Baby Shower May 31, 2009

Grace's baby shower was held at Paddy's Pub in Milwaukee, WI on May 31, 2009. My Mom (Debbie), Sister (Jessie), Step-Sister (Julia), Sister-in-law (Kristin), and Mother-in-law (Karen) all threw me a baby shower to celebrate the soon-to-be baby Grace! It was a beautiful day and everyone had a lot fun. I wanted to share some photos that my Aunt Mary took during the shower. She is a wonderful photographer and did such a great job taking pictures. I had so many it was so hard too choose which ones to post. Here are just a few....

Here are some of the photos of our guests enjoying themselves. Thank you all for attending the shower and for the very generous and wonderful gifts!!!
