Sweet Baby Love!!!

Almost a month ago I went to the DFW area to go to one of my very best and very dear friend's baby shower.  I have talked about Amie before in several of my other blog posts and it is getting close to her due date!  Her baby shower was on June 11th at her house and little Gavin is due July 11th...in 6 days!  I can't believe how fast nine months has gone by.  I still remember the day that she called to tell me that she was pregnant.  And now...he's about to be here!  Her baby shower was SO much fun and she got SO much amazing and cute stuff for that little guy!  His nursery is also super adorable.  Amie is so talented when it comes to decorating and thinking to put things together that I could never possibly think of.  She wanted to do something for his nursery that was vintage, yet modern.  So, when she was looking through magazines and had gone into several stores, she finally decided to do an industrial look.  His nursery is navy and mustard yellow with gray accents.  I'll post pictures at the end of this so that you can see just how amazing it really is!  One of my favorite things that she did for his nursery was to have her dad draw several pictures of common objects that were related to their family.  It's so special because her dad did it for Gavin and he will always have them to look at. 

It was so good to spend time with Amie and all the other girls that were there at her shower.  Not only did I get to meet several of Amie's friends that she teaches with, but I also got to spend time with one of our other dear friends from college.  Jamie moved to Arkansas a little over ago and so we don't get to see her as often as we used to.  But, when she comes through Abilene or makes a trip to the DFW area, we always try to get together so that we can catch up and just be silly girls!  After Amie's shower was over, there was several of us that stayed for a few hours and just talked and laughed.  When we get together like that, it's always just like we used to do when we were in college.  It's so much fun and makes me realize how blessed I am to have such amazing and wonderful friends.  I hope that someday all of our kiddos will be as good of friends as we all are...I have a  feeling that won't be a problem though!
A few pictures from Amie's precious shower!  The top left is Amie...8 months pregnant!  She looks amazing!  The bottom left is Amie's mom, Me-Me, her sister Stephanie, and Amie.  The top middle picture is a picture of Jamie, Amie, and I before the shower got started.  The rest are just a few pictures that I took from the shower...super cute!

Gavin's AMAZING nursery!  My favorite part are the pictures above the changing table that her dad drew for his nursery.  So precious!
