HiP HiP HOoRaY!!!

This past week has been very stressful for me, I've been making lots of trips to and from the KU med center where my Dad was a patient for 10 days.  It is about a 2 1/2 hour drive from my house.  Things got a little scary for a couple days and it was REALLY hard to see him like that, but everything is looking better now and he's finally back home.  I hadn't been home much, so there was no one keeping up with any house work and every time I walked in the kitchen for the last few days I felt a little overwhelmed by how out of control it was, but finally today I was able to get it cleaned.  My daughter even cleaned the toy room, just to get out of taking a nap.

The weekend did bring lots of fun and excitement, my mom's cousin got married on Saturday and we had a great time at the wedding.  I danced the night away out on the floor with my husband like we were the only ones out there, actually half the time we really were the only ones out there!  Sunday morning the kids enjoyed a bath in the big jacuzzi in our hotel room.  My daughter was not happy to go home, she wanted to live in the hotel room.  I can't really blame her though, it was a pretty awesome suite :)  We brought my Dad home Sunday afternoon, my sister and husband were waiting for us at my parent's house.  My sister handed my mom her wedding album to see some of the pics she'd printed and after a few pages of wedding photos there was a SONOGRAM picture!!!!  At 13 weeks of marriage they announced they are 11 weeks pregnant.  Baby Williamson is due 3 days before my b-day :)  This is my first niece or nephew, other than my husband's niece and I am SO excited.

  The inside of this card says "You're having a BABY!"  I also just ordered her the book, 'Oh Baby, the places you will go," using my amazon gift card balance I accumulated through swagbucks, bing rewards, and mechanical turk.

The banners for this card were cut from CTMH's Artiste cricut cartridge and then stamped using the colors twilight, hollyhock, smokey plum, lagoon, and blush.  The hip hip hooray was stamped using the color pear.

  2. How fun that you're going to be an aunt. I was wondering about all the baby shower pins on Pinterest. :) Glad to hear your dad is home and doing better. Been thinking about and praying for you all.
