A Shower to Remember!! : )

Well, today was more than I can explain! 14 of my friends threw me a friends and family shower at my mom's house. It was just perfect in every way! It was really overwhelming at how many amazing friends God has put in my life. I am truly blessed! The shower was full of my favorite things: ice cream sundaes, lemonade, and of course best friends!! They all came from all different walks of my life and made the day incredible. We received not only tons of love, but tons of presents!! Wells is one lucky boy!! I'll be sure to tell him everyday! We received playmats, tons of clothes, diapers, bottles, monitors, diaper genies, homemade gifts that were adorable, blankets, burp cloths, and much much more. When Chris came to help load up the car he was completely in awe. My sister joked that my baby shower was bigger than her wedding!! ha! The truth is that I love my friends to death and each and every person there meant the world to me. So thank you all so much for coming, helping, serving, and making the day one to never forget. I love you all so much! And there are many of you who couldn't make it, but know that you were missed and I appreciate you and all you do as well! What a great day! : )

Vestavia Hills Elementary Cahaba Heights Shower

On Monday, May 12th, my amazing friends and some parents at my school had a "Mother's Day" Baby shower for me. It was beyond anything that I can describe. They had every sort of food, treat, drink, and present imaginable. Chris and I were more overwhelmed than I can even describe. My mom, sister, nephew, and sweet husband joined in on the fun. Chris braved my "teacher world" and came. I am taking next year off of school and praying about what to do in the future. Chris said I am taking early retirement, but we will see financially how things go! Robyn and I are going to try to keep our Save the Dates stationery/invitations business going strong. I cannot explain how excited I am about my new job of being a mother, but I will miss these teachers, parents, children and friends from Cahaba Heights so much. It is the most amazing faculty you could ever work with. It is truly like a family and I will miss everyone so much. I will be back to visit often, especially my kindergarten friends! I love them so much! To all of you reading from school, I cannot thank you enough! You are wonderful! God blessed me with such an amazing group of friends, parents, and kids at Cahaba Heights.

My First Baby Shower!

Mountain Brook Community Group Baby Shower for four of us.
It was such a blast!

Emily, Amy, Karen, and I- the shower was obviously for the 4 of us!

Well, I had my first baby shower on Sunday, April 27th! It was such a fun shower because I got to share it with four good friends from my Community Group (sunday school class). For those of you who don't know, Chris and I go to Mountain Brook Community Church and it has been more of a blessing than I can even describe. So the girls from our class threw us a group shower. We all received a big present from the group. I got my first present, our infant car seat and carrier!! Yeah!! So this is obviously a big need and it will be fun to say that our class gave it to us. We really love our community group more than we can describe and we have grown so much from other believers in our class and our church in general. So enjoy these pregnant pics that I so badly didn't want to post!!!

Great News From the Doctor

Hey Friends! Well, Chris and I went last Wednesday to the doctor and we found out that the fluid in Wells' kidneys is all gone! Praise the Lord, it resolved itself! Chris and I were elated. We didn't know when to expect this to go away, if it would at all, but we definitely didn't think it would be so soon. We are so thankful. It is so much fun to get to see him all the time though so we will miss the ultrasounds!! I don't think we get another one now until the end. We will continue to keep you posted on the pregnancy and on Wells' health as we continue to go back. It's crazy that I'm already 25 weeks pregnant! He will be here before we know it! We are working on the nursery so hopefully in the next month or two we can post pictures of it. Much love to all our friends! Bye for now!

We're Having a Boy!!

I am extremely behind on this news for our blog, but we found out that we are having a boy!! We are going to name hiim Caldwell Alan Sheheane. We are calling him Wells. We are so excited! Chris of course is already talking baseball! We are asking for prayers because he has fluid in his kidneys and hopefully/prayerfully it will resolve itself. Please pray for this because we don't know what will happen if it doesn't. We definitely have a peace and know that God is in control. We go back to the doctor on April 9th and we can tell you more then.
We were very blessed to be able to go on a cruise last week to St. Thomas, St. Maarten, and Princess Cays (Bahamas). It was so beautiful and really beyond what I can describe. We really needed to take a trip before Wells arrives! It was as relaxing as it was amazing. Everyone needs to do this before they have a baby!!

Back to the blogging world!

Well, I finally figured out how to post pictures to our blog page!  I'm definitely slow on all of this, but I'll get there!  I'm so excited because we find out next Wednesday, March 12th, what we are having!!  I'll share on this blog as soon as we find out!  All of my friends that are in the blogging world are so good about keeping everyone up to date.  I'm getting there I promise!! And I know I'll be good when the baby comes!  In the meantime, be praying that this baby is healthy and that Chris and I would embrace every minute that we have together before the baby comes!  And I'll write again next Wednesday!
