The Deardurff Family: Baby Showers

Wow, 3 baby showers in 2 weeks means a lot of amazing stuff for Giada, Mommy, and Daddy! My amazing co-workers threw a shower for me and then I also had 2 family/friend showers. We are so blessed to have so many people who love us. Mommy and Daddy spent a lot of time getting Giada's nursery set up: clothes, blankets, burp clothes, bibs, hats, socks, etc. all washed and put away, decor on the walls, bouncer, swing, and jump-a-roo put together, toys and closets organized, an so on! It was so much fun; I don't know who enjoyed it more me or Brian!
I am 30 weeks pregnant today, which means only about 10 more weeks to go! My doctor's appointments are now every 2 weeks. Giada is moving all the time (except for when family or friends want to feel her). I am so blessed to be on summer break from school. I am now officially a stay-at-home Mommy for the next 7 months! I will not return to work until January, a decision Brian and I made together feeling it was best for our family. I will have about 2 months before Giada gets here for enjoying "me" time - I plan to spend many days in the pool soaking up the sun, laying on the couch watching TV/movies, taking naps, loving on my Wrigley boy and giving him 100% of my attention and talking to him about his role as a big brother. I also plan to prep/cook a few meals to freeze for easy cooking once Giada is here. And of course going to fun family and friend events like lots of weddings.
