Baby Shower!

Yesterday was the most wonderful baby shower for Baby Shoe! My sister and mom threw it for me and they did an amazing job. I couldn't believe how much time, thought, and love they put into every part of it. They used our nursery decorations (pink, black, white, polka dots, and paisley) as inspiration for the baby shower theme and tied it into everything. It was more than I could have ever asked for. Here are a few pics from the day...




They had everyone bring a pair of shoes for Baby Shoe.. how fun! She now has a nice shoe wardrobe of about 15 pairs of shoes!

Here I am with the amazing and talented party planners. They really should go into the party planning business!




All of the pregnant ladies at the shower (there were 6 of us!) plus Carissa and one-month-old Henry. What a little cutie he is!




My and my pregnant sister-in-laws. Three Schumacher babies are on the way!!





Look at all the gifts she got! We were overwhelmed with everyone's generosity. So many people came to help make this day extra special. My aunt, two cousins' wives, and my good friend from college all drove out here from Chicago. It meant so much to me that they would be willing to make that trip to be at my shower. My mother-in-law and sister-in-laws also came and helped with some of the food preparation. It was such a special day.. thanks to everyone who helped shower me and Baby Shoe with so much love yesterday!!!

shower looked amazing!!! I love love love the idea of everyone bringing a pair of shoes for the little lady! How cute! You are so much better at the whole blog thing, I think I'm gonna have to take some lessons. I am having my Las Vegas shower this weekend, so hopefully I will be a little more on the ball and I can take a picture of everything I got for the little guy! You're looking Fabulous Annie!

OH AND I DON'T KNOW IF I SAID THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR THE LITTLE GOODIES FOR DEX! I love the onesie, so cute!!! (I love going through this pregnancy with you. Oh, and what's weirder is that the 3 women in Brian's family are pregnant at the same time too! What are the chances?)

Miss you!!!
