Almost Ready for Baby!

Hi everyone,

A few weekends ago, a lovely baby shower was thrown in honor of little baby Hill and it was soooo awesome to see everyone!! This kid has many friends and family awaiting his arrival!!

Taylor did an amazing job at planning the whole thing, down to the water bottles and hand-frosted cookies (which I'm still working on making disappear from my freezer)! Everything looked incredible!! A HUGE thank you to her and also my Mom and Grandma for helping prepare for the shower.  It was a great success, and I was thoroughly exhausted after a long day of visiting, present opening, game playing, and of course...eating! :)  A special Thank You to my Aunt Judy for traveling all the way from San Francisco to attend!!!

Enjoy a few pictures!!

Look at that spread!! YUMMY!!!!! I must say, my absolute favorite was the marshmallow cream cheese...Tay knows how to keep the pregnant lady happy!! And I got the leftovers....woo-hoo!!!
Water...good to have to wash that marshmallow cream cheese down....

Games and gifts!! Thanks to everyone who played the "Guess how big around Brittney is" and guessed smaller.. :) 

Yeah....it was a long day...not sure what is better though...this picture with my eyes closed or ALL THE OTHER PICTURES with my right eye only half way open....pregnancy does some crazy things, I tell ya....
There, that's better...Although, I don't know why I was the one with the "man pose" and Adam didn't have his arm around me....
And of course, the always appreciated "Toddlers & Tiara's" pose with the happy grandparents to be.
Covering the major Washington Universities in this picture.  Harrison is gonna have some big decisions to make in about 18 years....Thanks for the great shower, Tay!!  
Thanks to our family and friends, we actually feel like we could be prepared to welcome a baby in the next few weeks (!!!).  Still so hard to believe, but he'll be here before we know it and we can't wait to introduce him to you all!

As for non-baby related news, a big congrats to a fellow accounting couple, Fred and Erin, that finally made it official last weekend and tied the knot!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!  We are happy, happy, happy for you!!!! (I'm still mad at Macy's for not including my super awesome gift note with your gift, though).  Next month, (although we won't be able to attend), the trifecta of married accounts will be complete and our future plan to take over the world will commence, one debit at a time....well, with the corresponding credit, of course... :)

Our summer is still going full steam ahead and although we have had so much fun staying busy and seeing friends and family this summer, we are looking forward to a few quiet weekends before the baby gets here. But first, we have a fun weekend planned with Kerry and Mike and then Labor Day in Hansville with the Hill family, our last big hoorah as a 2 person, 2 puggle, 1 ancient white beagle family...

As always, thanks for reading!!! :)

  1. The "thanks for coming" goodies were the best! Seriously, I really tried not to eat them all in one sitting, and totally failed.

    I hope you have a smooth and not exhausting last few weeks as a mom-to-be. I can't wait to meet your bitty baby boy!
