Showered with Gifts

Although I have only been working in the ER for a few short months, I have met some wonderful people and they have welcomed me with open arms. Selena, my coworker and trainer, along with Andrea another wonderful co-worker, were kind enough to put together a baby shower for Cally and I. I must admit, I was surprised at their kind gesture given that I have only known them for a few short months, but I was very touched as well. All the girls from work along with Erin, my neighbor, got together at a Mexican restaurant and celebrated Cally with great food, adorable presents, and lots of fun little games. Not only did we celebrate Cally, but also my birthday which was just 3 days away...Selena thought of it all and even got me a birhtday cake where I could blow out the candles and make a wish. Overall it was a great time. Thank you girls for all the wonderful gifts and showing me such kindness.

The Beauty of Pregnancy

I have always thought that pregnancy is one of the most beautiful things in this world. I feel privileged as a woman to be able to to experience such an amazing miracle of creating a life. I knew the minute I got pregnant that I would want to document the beauty of it all and that maternity portraits were a must.

Lucky for me, my wonderful friend Molly is an amateur photographer and was kind enough to volunteer her time and amazing talent to capture such an important moment in my life. We spent all day taking pictures of me and my belly and had so much fun doing it. Shes is one talented girl and really did a beautiful job! Thanks Molly for all your hard work! I absolutely love all the pictures!!!

The Most Magical Place on Earth-Disneyland

Zane and I took our last trip to Disneyland together as kids before we have kids of our own. We spent all day walking around, eating delicious food, and seeing all the magical things that only Disneyland has. We also hopped over to California Adventures, Disneyland's other theme park, and Zane got to ride all the roller coasters while I stood by watching. Being 7 months pregnant, I was definitely limited from riding alot of the fun rides so we were stuck riding alot of "kiddie rides" together but nevertheless we had a great time. By the end of the day I was exhausted and my feet where killing me but we had a great time!

Cally's Room

Cally's room is coming along great. Zane has been working really hard making the wood floors and Erin has done an amazing job painting the designs on the wall. I've helped both of them to the best of my ability but let's face it, I don't really do carpentry very well and I don't have an ounce of artistic talent. So with that said, I'd like to give credit where credit is due; thanks babe for working so hard to try to make me happy and of course thanks Erin for putting in so much of your time and doing such a wonderful job in making Cally's room so beautiful.
