SURPRISE Work Shower

I swear I'm not trying to go on and on about the showers for Billy... but yesterday my office SURPRISED me with a lovely shower!!! You can tell from my face in this photo, I was completely shocked! I thought I was just going to another meeting:
When I saw everyone I was shocked, then BILL was there too!!! My coworker arranged the shower so Bill could be there, I can't believe how thoughtful my team is. I feel so lucky to have such loving people in my life, and of course in Billy's!!!

Being the smart man he is, Bill brought my camera so I could take photos of the whole shower and blog it :) I love that man!!!



 Don't we look like proud parents?! Check out my basketball belly. Holy moly.

 YUM. I could eat these cake leftovers for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Everything was absolutely wonderful and I am still pinching myself with the generous gift my office handed us. Bill and I are so grateful!!! My coworkers are such a blessing.

We're into the final countdown! A week from today and Billy is full-term (37 weeks). I can't believe it. I feel like my whole life I have been waiting to be his mom and now the time is almost here. I cry a lot of happy tears with that thought.
