Our newest edition....

Betsy had her calf on Thursday! We went down to Rainier today because Betsy needed a pedicure, she had severely cracked hooves. I just wanted to see the baby, she's so cute! I was forced to assist by sitting on the Gator and watching. Betsy finally had a girl - we named the new baby Junebug.

King of the Jungle......

My best friend Troy threw an amazing shower for me and baby last weekend. I love the banner, it's actually still hanging up on the wall. I love lions so this theme was perfect. There's actually still a lion balloon hanging on the end of the banister.
Baby got lots of great goodies - jungle and dog theme were prevalent in the gifts.
Baby is more than ready for bath time - he got plenty of bath toys and body wash.
The cake was the best I've ever had, Troy got it from Remo Borrachini's bakery in Seattle. It was so good that I know where I'll be getting my birthday cake from now on. There was a ton leftover and we ate it all!
I meant to take a group shot when everyone was there but things were too hectic when the party was in full swing. I got the majority of my main folks in it though so I have to take the victories where I can get them.
I finally got everything washed but still need to get it put away. We did some shopping over this weekend with our gift cards to get our remaining needed items. We're not quite done, but we're almost there!

Happy hours....

My shower with my local friends was last weekend. My friend Val (the blonde bundled in the coat on the left) came up from Phoenix for the weekend for the occasion. We headed up to Maggiano's for what could be the last time for me for awhile for happy hour with the group. Maggiano's is my absolute favorite restaurant, their food is amazing and I am absolutely addicted to their chocolate martinis (which I cannot have right now!) In any event, quite a few people showed up for the gathering and we had a great time even though our waiter was the worst ever.
