This weekend we celebrated our little Ellie with the most wonderful baby shower.
My sister Tammy and good friend Wendy completely spoiled us with a relaxed and super fun baby shower.

The house was decorated so beautifully and the food was SO amazing. And since Miss E is our fourth baby and third girl they decided on a diaper/meal shower and asked guests to bring either a package of diapers or a freezer meal for us.

Yup.
We’re still here….
Still soaking up her sweetness…

Here we are.
My three little monkeys (well four if you count our sweet Elliot cooking away) and my huge belly.
What I love most about this shot is that while I was going for the “perfect picture” with each of my kids holding up just one hand on my belly, my youngest ended up peeking into the corner of the shot and insisted on having both her hands touch the baby 😉 and my oldest is proudly sporting his fading star wars tattoo.

1. I have decided that having a 4th baby is crazy WONDERful! I have been in fresh from heaven baby bliss for 12 days now.
Enjoying every snuggle. Every feeding. Every chance I have to breath in her sweetness.

2. Man oh man, new babies sure smell good.

3. The recovery this time around has been awesome. Aside from being crazy exhausted from the nighttime feedings I really do feel great. In fact, our little lady was born on a Friday. We got home from the hospital on Saturday and by Sunday afternoon Chris and I were at Walmart grocery shopping. I don’t think I left the house for a month after having our first.
