Baby shower time!!

My beautiful sisters through me the most perfect baby shower to celebrate Ruby's arrival! I am truly blessed to have such amazing women surrounding me to help support me on this new adventure of motherhood. Bonnie has supplied Ruby with her wardrobe for her first year of life. Chony took the time to perfect my favorite cupcake! They were amazing and Baby Ruby loved them!! Nicole made the most amazing diaper cake and started Ruby on her collegiate path. I am truly grateful for all there hard work and willingness to go above and beyond for me and Baby Ruby!
So pregnancy has not been an easy road for me. In and out of the hospital for fluids and vitamins. We recently had a little scare that Ruby might not be growing right. But our prayers were answered when we had an ultra sound that confirmed our hopes...She is perfect and growing perfectly! The doctor says that she is 5lbs. 6oz. It makes all the throwing up, hospital trips, and worrying seem somehow manageable when we found out that our Ruby is ok!!
Our little family has had so many changes in the past few months...I am not sure if I am having a hard time to catch my breath from all the change or my baby is squeezing my lungs...it is up for debate :) Clint and I recently bought our first house together! It has been so much work but is turning into an awesome first home for us!! The girls have so much room to run and play! A special thanks to my family...with me being so sick I have been kind of lame and out of commission...my mom and brother, Andrew, basically painted my house!! I would be lost without my family!!
