Due Date Comes and Goes…7-19-2009

The day was finally here and we were ready but Jake was not.  We are so ready for this baby to come we can hardly stand it!  We started the day with a stop at the Fremont Troll and ended celebrating my Dad’s birthday in Bellevue.  We were all ready for Jake to come and share a birthday with my pop but no such luck!

Everything is all set in Jake’s room, now we just need the baby!  He’s got an eclectic mix of rock posters on the wall…the poor guy doesn’t stand a chance if he hates music. =)

Baby Shower – May 16, 2009

May 21, 2009 by Firsts Gifts Photos Pregnancy

Jake was showered with lots of love at the baby shower on Saturday by both those that were able to attend and those that were there in spirit.  We feel so blessed to have so many awesome people in our life to welcome baby Jake into the world!

The shower was hosted by Julie Chase at her home in Wallingford (Seattle neighborhood) and by my sister, Melissa Cannon.  Julie did a wonderful job bringing all of the details to life in my favorite colors of blue and brown, providing guests with yummy teas, scrumptious foods and Trophy Cupcakes!  Aunt Melissa worked diligently with help from the fam on party favors of various teas complete with a poem and a funny parenting saying on each tea bag.

We had a great time playing celebrity bingo and everyone wrote messages on diapers to provide a good chuckle for the 3 am diaper changes.

Thank you so much for all the love and support of our growing little family!  Enjoy pics below from the big day…
