Baby Shower!!!

Baby Love
Andrew and Katherine and Aaron in South Dakota
This past weekend we had a long road trip and drove to South Dakota. We left Thursday evening at about 10:30 PM and arrived in Sioux Falls around 1 PM on Friday. It was hard being up all night but we were anxious to get there and not stop! We went shopping on Friday and went to a few yard sales Saturday morning then prepared for the shower! Most of Andrew's female relatives were able to come and they brought their children as well. My sister-in-law was the only one from my family able to make it. We played a few games and then opened gifts! Aaron is soo spoiled already! He got lots of much needed things and will make use of all of the presents he got! We stayed until Sunday evening and then started the trip back home. We stopped in Kansas City ( Overland Park, Kansas actually) and slept for the night and then finished up. We stopped at a outlet mall and got Aaron some more clothes. We also stopped in Nashville and ate dinner with Kristy and Barry. It was a good trip and we had a great time! It was hard to go back to work on Wednesday! Thanks to everyone for the gifts!

Preparing for Aaron



It has been a fun week since we've learned the gender of our baby! Andrew decided he needed to learn diaper changing so he would know what to do when the baby comes, so we got a stuffed animal and some diapers and got to work. He did pretty good it will take some more practice but he will do a great job! This week also was a consignment sale in Cleveland and so I went and was able to buy some clothes for Aaron. There isn't much variety for boys but I got quite a bit for him for about $55! I was happy and excited to be able to shop for him! Andrew and I went shopping a little bit today and Andrew is having fun picking out fun outfits for his boy! We are going to South Dakota this next week and will be having a shower while we are there! We are excited to be getting more things for our baby and preparing more for him!
