Baby Aiden and his room are nearing the finish line! Thank goodness! I think one more trip to Babies R' Us for a few things and a few extras and we will be done. I currently have 10 days to my due date! I wish he would hurry up but I know I have no control and it is now all up to him, UGH! The picture below is of the left side of his room.
These are absolutely adorable Beannie Babies that my mom trampled a little kid for.

My wonderful Baby Shower
My amazing friends and family threw the best baby shower for me. It was absolutely wonderful and I had great time. This is the adorable diaper cake that my friend Erica made me. So cute!
My wonderful hubby was recruited to make all the food. Here is a picture of all the appetizers, the only appetizer you can't see is the crab stuffed mushrooms. For dessert we had chocolate covered strawberries and a chocolate torte. Mmmmm DE-LISH!

Kirby's 10th Birthday
Yesterday was Kirby's 10th birthday! He is the last one left out of his litter of 5. So I decided it would be best if he had a small party, complete with a cake. The day included a trip to the dump where he got to cookies from the nice dump lady, next we went to the vet clinic to see his friends and Dr. since birth where he was weighed and his heart checked, then we headed to the harbor for a nice walk and a stop at Sophie's Touch (pet boutique). At Sophie's Touch he got two toys and some cookies. Lastly we headed home for some lunch and a short nap before his party. Here is a picture of his cake from Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Shop.
Here is the birthday boy, waiting for his party to begin! Isn't he the cutest thing EVER!!!!

The Countdown Begins

Let the planting begin!
What a great day today was, did a lot house stuff, Baby Aiden stuff and finally some gardening stuff! I washed all the peat pot holders (see below) and the seed trays.
Tomorrow I will dig out the seeds and probably have my wonderful hubby help me put together the first set of seeds. Yippee! In the meantime my parents are having two more raised beds and a GREENHOUSE! Well, hopefully a greenhouse!! Fingers crossed! Anyway I planning to start some peas, brussel sprouts and a few other cooler crops. More tomorrow!

Baby Aiden's Room Pt. 1
Anthony, my mom and I have been busy working on Baby Aiden's room. We are getting there but not quite, we still have to hang some stuff on the walls. Here is the first thing that was hung on the wall, besides the paint that went on the walls. Thanks mom, for the light switch!
This is the GIANT giraffe that my mom bought for Baby Aiden, isn't he cute? He is HUGE, and suprisingly enough the dogs weren't even afraid of him!
Inside the crib, sooooo cute! Anthony and I picked out the furniture, it had to be ordered, but I am glad it arrived so quickly.
This is a picture from the doorway of the whole room, the only thing you can't see is the second dresser. And yes, there are two bouncy chairs on the floor. My friend Thersea had twin boys about 8 months ago and luckily for me they have out grown them, so Baby Aiden gets to use them both!! Almost everything has been washed and put in its place. Now all we need is a BABY!
This is the dresser, changing table combination and the baby carseat. I am hoping to find something to hang on the wall above the dresser. The carseat and stroller are so cute and we have already installed the carseat base in my trailblazer and we need to buy another base for Anthony's new car. More on that later....
This is the right corner of the room, we are going to hang his name above the crib and maybe something else that we find along the way. Hope the giant giraffe doesn't freak Baby Aiden out!
So this is the beginning of Baby Aiden's Room. We had our 36 week ultrasound on Tuesday, and the Ultrasound Tech said Baby Aiden was PERFECT! Although I was a little freaked out by the fact that the computer said that our Baby already weighed 6 lbs 2 ounces!!! In next 4 weeks he should gain a half a pound a week, which means he will weigh over 8 pounds by his due date!! Yikes!!! I really hope that the computer was wrong. We are so excited to meet him and to begin our new adventure as parents.

Anthony's Food
I can not brag enough about my hubby's AMAZING cooking. A few weeks ago, my mom and some friends gave a 'Grandma Baby Shower' for a long time friend, whom was becoming a first time grandmother! They asked Anthony to make the food, and he was happy too! These are pictures of what he made. The picture below is 3 cheese philo dough triangles.
These are caramelized balasmic onion with tomato and basil all tossed together on bruschetta! YUM!
This is a hummus with bruschetta that he made as well. I don't know what is all in this but people said it was delicious.
I could not be more proud of Anthony and all his accomplishments! Everything he makes is fabulous! He has now been recruited to do my baby shower, YAY!! I know it will be yummy!

Happy Birthday to me!
Well Yesterday was actually my birthday, but we celebrated all weekend!! It was a very quiet birthday but it was perfect. Saturday Anthony took me to Hello, Cupcake. What a cute place. Of course I forgot my camera so I only have pictures of the box. Now I must admit the Cupcakes were kinda of expensive, but it was my birthday.
On my actual birthday, yesterday, Anthony made me chocolate covered strawberries! YUM!!!! I love my hubby! This is what is left and I ate the rest this morning. HEHEHE!
The other FABULOUS gift I got was from my mom and Jeff! They gave me (Anthony and Baby Aiden) the baby pack that I wanted. It's called an Ergo Carrier. It is a beautiful blue color and I had Anthony try it on, since my belly is to big.
All in all, I had a great birthday, next year we will planning for Aiden first birthday! Which is very exciting, to think about.
