We left at the crack of dawn to head out get to Dallas by 2:30. We headed up to IKEA because I bought a dresser to use as a changing table. IT got great reviews and is super contemporary (and white, of course)!
Here it is! I love these fun overlays and different fun knobs. I may have to do this!
Little did Brad or I know, it was coming in a lovely assortment of three different boxes. He was THRILLED I could tell.... This sure may be cutting into his football watching time this weekend!:) Sorry babe!
We had dinner with our sweet dear friend Stephanie on Friday night. Brad and I just adore this girl. She makes me laugh like no other! Brad and her were on a roll that night, due to their "wine consumption". I was laughing so hard I thought I might pee my pants. She wasn't able to attend my shower on Saturday, so I am so glad we were about to spend some time with her!
Sweet Steph.
Shower Day had arrived and I couldn't wait! My friend, Carrie had graciously offered to host it at her new house. Talk about an AMAZING decorator! IT.WAS.DARLING. And she has the best art! I had 7 sweet, sweet hostesses which are some of my best friends. These girls OUTDID themselves.
Lydia, Jeaneal, Carrie, Lori, Stephanie and Katie. (Steph Bolton in spirit!)
Sweet sign driving up...
Fun spread of goodies, especially mini Nothing Bundt Cakes! My fave!
A fun, frothy, blue drink that I was unable to partake in! Looked delicious though!
Darling Onesies hanging form the mantle! Hello Martin Family!:)
Bob and her Marlowe! Marlowe was a HUGE helper!:)
Excited about the Texas Tech onesie!
Showing some love for the SAINTS!
And for the back..... WAINSCOTT 00. Thanks Aunt Nancy!
When I opened the Bumbo, Marlowe's eyes lit up like Christmas. She ran over to it and hopped right on the cardboard and all. She was like, "I think I know what this is! I used to have one!"
Sweet blanket with Ledger's name monogrammed...
Lil Camilla got to come out and play!
Lindz, me and Mom. Lindz is due in April, so Bob is going to be working overtime come 2015! REST UP MOM!
Missing the Christy in the pic. Nap time was calling for Miss M!
Brad and sweet Debra....
Brad's wonderful aunts and Grandma! They DEFINITELY spoiled Ledger this weekend! Love you LADIES!
What a fun, special day it was. I could just cry thinking about how many people came from all my walks of life in Dallas! SO many special women that I love, have been my mentors, women I look up to, adore and miss terribly. It was definitely an emotional day all for one special little boy.
And last but not least..... This blog is coming to you from:
The lovely St. Tammany Parish Hospital... This was my "YOU'RE not letting me go home today?" face......)
Started feeling bad on Monday night, but really didn't think anything of it! I'M PREGNANT, I kept telling myself. Tuesday morning came, and it was bad. I called and got into my OB @ 4:00 that afternoon. That was an extremely long drive. I was scared to death, not about me feeling horrible, but for lil Ledger's health and well being. Diagnosis was a raging kidney infection and with 102.6 fever at the Dr.'s office, they said the words no one wants to hear...... "We have to admit you Heather." Tears started flowing, and immediately I knew that this where God wanted me to be.
I am DEFINITELY not the best patient: I do not like to lay around. I do not want to miss school and my sweet kiddos. I have grad. school assignments deadlines to meet. I have a plethora of thank you notes to write, the house needs to be vacuumed, Windexed (I love some Windex- maybe too much!), and etc.... I am sure you get the point. My mind, like many of yours, is CONSTANT.... With that being said, hopefully I will be out of here tomorrow at some point. We just need the fever not to spike again today and hopefully "Good-bye Hospital" tomorrow morning!
And these beautiful flowers arrived today! Thanks Lyd and Steph. Too sweet. Such a fun surprise....
Hope you all have had a great week with this wonderful, fall weather.
Love,
~H
