Baby Shower!

My sweet friends threw me the most beautiful baby shower I have ever been to!  They are so precious and special to me, and I can't thank them enough!  Here are some pictures from the wonderful day!

This cake tasted as wonderful as it looked!

Yummy sugar cookies

Aren't these favors adorable!?  I so loved all the little details, like the stationary - it all matched our bedding!

This is the first thing I got with his initials on it!

The smallest shorts I have EVER seen!

My adorable sister painted these onsies for her nephew.  They are treasures!  I can't wait for him to wear them!

I LOVE alligators!  They are our sorority mascot :)  Since I can't have a little AXO, I'll get our sweet little boy lots of alligator things - haha!

Jenn got me these stickers - they are SO cutie!  There is one for each month, and you can put them on his little clothes for his monthly pictures.  I LOVE them!

Kristin & Me

My beautiful hostesses in their gifts.  I am so lucky to have such wonderful, talented, sweet friends.  I can't thank you all enough for such an amazing shower and a day that I will never forget!  Love you girls!

Kelly & Me.  Kelly took all of these pictures, and a few hundred more.  She is so talented and I am so thankful to have all these pictures as wonderful memories of the day.  Thank you Kelly!

Baby Jaxson's First Photo Shoot

We went to Dallas last weekend to visit my darling parents and sister.  What an amazing weekend!  I just love being home.  It feels so weird that I will only be home a few times before our little boy arrives.  Trips to Dallas will never be the same!

My Daddy was so sweet, he made us wonderful meals while we were there!  We had ribs, Bandit Chili, and a Steak and Lobster dinner.  My mom and sister and I got to have a wonderful girls day!  We shopped at Harry and David, went to a cutie yogurt bar, and headed to Babies R Us to finish Jaxson's registry.  It was wonderful.  I didn't want to come home!

On Saturday, baby Jaxson had his first photo shoot!  We had a 3/4D ultrasound done.  It was amazing!  Here are a few of my favorite pics from the appointment.

I adore him : )

The nurse said he was overly active.  I know - he is moving all the time!!!  We might have our hands full when our little ninja arrives.

It's A Boy!

 We finally had our Gender Reveal Party this weekend!!  We have been looking forward to it for weeks!

 Here's the scoop.  We went to the doctor for our 16 week sonogram and had them write the sex of the baby in a card.  We didn't peek :)  Then, we took the card to the bakery and had them make cupcakes filled with pink or blue filling.  We invited our friends and family over so that we could all find out together!  Here are some of the pics from the day.

Hubby and I made that cupcake stand - how cute is that??

This is the first time I got to use my china serving dish!  I was so excited!

Ooh La La in Katy made the best cupcakes I have ever had.  They are huge, but amazing.

They sat at our house for a full 24 hours before the party.  I wanted to peek inside one so badly!

The spread.  The tree is one of our placecard trees from our wedding.  My Mom made it, which makes it so special.

Me and my Sister, Val

My Mom brought these and put them in one of our wedding vases.  Aren't they beautiful?

My Pappa and his Sisters.  It meant so much to me that they came!

My precious sister

My sister and Me, before I was dressed and ready to go!

Here we are...cutting into the cupcake!

And....

IT'S

A

BOY!!!

And we couldn't be happier.  My Daddy thanked me twice for his Grandson, Hubby teared up, and my Pappa was so excited!!
