Feeling very spoiled over here. My friends threw me a baby shower and lots of people from the ward came. I'm such a cheapskate with people I felt pretty bad. But it was really nice.
Also, we have to give a blog shout out to Aunt Christen who always knows exactly what to send us. A true giver of good gifts. This time she sent Marie a book entitled "I'm a Big Sister." It's been a HUGE help when talking about the baby. The book explains that the baby will get lots of attention, but it's much funner to be a big sister because they get to do things like eat ice cream. Ice cream does make things better.
Thanks to everyone to who is always thinking of us and asking how we are doing. It's hard to be homesick when everyone is keeping in touch and supporting us in every last way. We are ready for baby.

Aww, that's great you had a nice baby shower thrown for you :) I wish I could have been there. I miss you and hope you're hanging in there on your last few weeks of being pregnant! Can't wait for another new Millburn cousin!
It's like the 12 days of Christmas count down only it's the 12 days till baby _? countdown! So excited. You look so cute and very pregnant, finally! love ya!
I can't believe you're almost ready to pop that thing out! That is so exciting! I have to admit, I am a tad jealous that you are so close to having your baby. I wish I could just get pregnant for a month, then have my baby. But there's no way that would work. Marie is looking so cute! She is such a beautiful girl with those big huge eyes! I'm sure you get comments on her eyes all the time.
That is pretty exciting that you are considering Avery for the name of your new one- I won't even assume it's after me- right? :)
We loved your Christmas card too- you guys are such a fun, cute, awesome, cool family. Hopefully someday soon we'll be able to get together, and if all goes according to my plan, we'll be neighbors within 5 yrs. And Marie will marry Boston, and your new baby will marry Simon. Let's try to make that happen, ok?
Well, Rachel, I don't know how you did it but Marie appears to have gotten even cuter. And Cutierpants-ier as well. Sorry to here about the tantrum week.
Way to Dance Dance Revolution it up Marie!
How fun to have a shower! Looks like you have some great friends! Marie is so cute and I love hearing her talk! I wish she and Preston could "chat" It would be so cute to see them interact now. I need to call you. That baby is coming soon, can't wait, and I'm sure you can't either!
Oh, I love it! You are welcome, Marie. You are going to be the best big sister!!
Rachel, I haven't seen you in so long! Way to go on the cute late pregnancy body! I'm hesitant to ever post mine- I certainly do not look cute!
