My family came to visit last weekend for my baby shower and I tell you I could NOT have picked a worse day weather wise. It rained so hard and started to sleet, ten people texted last minute and cancelled. BUT- Overall everything went wonderful and we had a great time! Of course on Sunday it was sunny and gorgeous outside….lol!
It was so nice having my Mom, Dad, Nannie, Sister + kids here! I also had a few precious friends who came from Arkansas for the shower as well and that meant so much! My sweet friend Courtney got the most delicious cake ever….
Bonnie brought some adorable cookies from a friend in Arkansas. She did a great job and some of them were even coffee cups with Heidi’s name on them 🙂
Me and my twinkie!
Nannie, Bonnie, Me, and Mom
I haven’t seen my family back home since Christmas and oh my how Ella has grown! She’s getting so big and is adorable. She makes the funniest faces and says “Hiiiiiiii” to everyone she meets. It’s super nice having a sister who just had a girl because I get hand-me-downs! Anyone who knows my sister also knows she LOVES to shop for girlie stuff! 
Friends from Arkansas- Stephanie (who everyone thinks is our other sister…someone even asked if she was at the party!) Bonnie, Ellen (Who lives in Texas now), and Sara. I’ve been friends with these girls for years and they mean so much to me.
We took a similar picture at Bonnie’s shower. I just adored my dress from Pink Blush. It’s so hard to find anything flattering while pregnant, but I felt pretty darn good in this!
Other sweet friends – Nicole, Courtney (Who did an amazing job hosting this shower for me…it meant the world), Kim, Chastity, and Julie
Other friends not in the group pics 🙂 Aimi
Sue Ellen, my Texas Granny 
My friend Kindra and her adorable daughter Sophie
Opening all the presents and PINK stuff! I have to say it is so fun to shop for a girl. There are also so many new things since I had Connor it’s mind blowing. She is going to be one well dressed and styling little princess.

It’s a Hemi dog blankie….I love it!
The weekend was WAY too short, but the moments will be cherished always. The next day family left and I met my sister and friends for one last brunch at The Cheesecake Factory. Thank you to everyone who made it out in the crazy weather and for all the gifts….I’ve got a lot of thank you notes to write and only six weeks left to write them!
I never thought I would honestly have any more kids, so this whole year has been crazy, a blessing, tiring, and hopeful. I thank God for all my blessings- for this baby, my family, and friends.
Oh here are some cute pics of all the kids swimming. We had to get ALL our trees in the backyard chopped down so it looks totally different now. They were dying and we were so tired of all the leaves falling every single day. Hopefully we’ll find something to shade the backyard again.

Ella loved the water 🙂
Aaaaaaand….now because my child loves me and we’ll be wearing this during the holiday season this year….
I actually took this to Easter celebrations, but it’s Ralphie from A Christmas Story’s Bunny outfit. LOL! I love working with UglyChristmasSweater.com and they have the funniest and cutest items. It’s not too far away y’all!
Connor has actually been wearing this every night and says it’s really comfortable. He’s a goofy kid!
