Will you be one of my bridesmaids? + First Baby Shower


Back in the fall Alyssa was asked to be a bridesmaid by my cousin Julie. She said yes and was very excited. But a few hours later it sunk in that she would be 7-1/2 months pregnant the day of the wedding (Jan 21st).

However, there was another problem – we had NOT told anyone we were expecting a baby. After a day of consideration along with trying on the exact bridesmaid dress, Alyssa decided to tell Julie she couldn’t be a bridesmaid and didn’t want her 7-1/2 month pregnant stomach in shiny, silver satin for all the world to see.

As it turns out I think she looked beautiful in her strapless maternity dress.

We also had our first baby shower last Sunday put on by our friends from church. We felt very loved and encouraged.
