The crib arrived!
The crib arrived on Thursday! I was so excited. Tom and Johnathan Swart put the crib and dresser together on Thursday night because I couldn't wait one more day! (Thanks Johnathan!) You can see we also finished putting up the wall decal. After putting together the crib, I went to try out the bedding I had made however realized that the mattress did not arrive with the same order and the skirt does not fit because the slits for the crib legs are in the wrong place. So, as you can see, I just have the bumper for now. Also, the chair that I planned on putting in the nursery is too big for the space so I am looking for another chair. I'm also looking for shelves to go above the dresser and the perfect mobile to hang from the wood arm you see sticking out of the crib. Below are some thoughts are these last items. Id like to make a bird mobile with black, white, and grey fabrics to hang from the wood arm. I found a simple pattern for the bird below on line. Anyone up for sewing birds???I think the Ikea Lack shelves in black-brown (below) would look perfect above the dresser. Unfortunately they are out of stock on-line and at all Ikeas until January. Should I just find another shelf I like or wait until January?

November Showers Bring Friends & Family
My mother-in-law and sister-in-law hosted a great shower for me last Saturday. I was definitely showered with gifts... But even better was having so many people show up. I have been amazed by how supportive and excited everyone has been for us. I have had fun preparing the nursery and being showered with gifts but now I just want Porter to be here! The cake... so cute!My mom and Sarah trying out the Moby Wrap. I'm excited to try this out with Porter. It sounds like a good idea to be able to "wear" your baby. Angela, Jannene, Amberly, me, Gretchen, and Karen (this is a blurry photo but I had to include it because of everyone in it)Terry, my mom, me, and Sarah (sorry another blurry photo)Sarah, Donna, and meMeghan, Trena, Thorey, and meHolly, Dee, Jack, me, and TraceyMe, Melissa, Sarah, and MeghanNancy, me, and TerryThat's all the pictures of people I have. I wish I had taken more photos of people because it was so nice to have so many of my friends and family there. These are the flowers Joanne sent me from Oregon because she couldn't be at the shower.... so cute in the little red wagon!

Fall Is Here!
October 17, 2009 - BYU vs. San Diego State football game. Sitting in the box enjoying the company, the weather, and BYU winning the game.October 24, 2009 - Halloween Block Party at the Isobe's. Tom and I went as polygamists. Notice the hair. Once again, enjoying the good company, food, and dancing in the street.I had to throw this photo in for memories sake. This is Katie, Sarah, and I dressed up for a skit we did at church in 2007. We are dressed as vices. I can't remember what my vice was but I looked dressed to kill, didn't I? I borrowed these clothes from one of the teenage girls at church. These clothes came from her actual closet! This photo reminded me of Halloween but also reminded me how I used to be skinny. I miss those days.
