Diapers. Diapers. Diapers.

Yesterday I finally made myself take all my diapers down from my laundry room. It made me sad to take them out--I've been enjoying seeing them all hanging there. They're all so cute :) But I figured it was about time I took them down, stuffed them and packed them away for when Baby Bauman is big enough to wear them.

I couldn't help myself...I took pictures before I took them down.

Aren't they cute hanging there?


Aren't they even cuter in my laundry basket?!


Aren't they cutest stuffed and stacked in piles?!?!?

CC Turlock Baby Shower

Yesterday CC Turlock threw me a baby shower. It was a lot of fun--and such a sweet blessing for Jeff and I. We were showered with so many wonderful and thoughtful gifts. Many of the gifts were homemade things that will be cherished forever by us and Baby B!

It was so wonderful to see who all showed up to show Jeff and I their love, support and joy as we enter this new season of life. We're so blessed to be a part of the Calvary Chapel Turlock fellowship.

Here are some pictures of the adorable things we were given:

Isn't this lamb blanket and pillow set adorable?! And its crazy soft!!!








Shelbie made this adorable flannel blanket:



This is a fleecy rag tie quilt...I love these!! They are so soft and so cute!! It came with two matching tiny little cuddly blankets.



This is a nursing cover. It's really pretty and not see-through :)



This thing is AWESOME! You know how you throw a blanket over the baby's car seat to keep out the sun or to keep people from messing with a sleeping baby? But the blanket always falls off or gets pulled off? Well this is made for a baby car seat! It velcros around the handle and won't fall off :-D



And this, is a super cute rag quilt. I've never seen one before, but the gal who gave to me told me to wash it up and the edges will fray. It was so cool to see the before and after. It's adorable...I want to make one of these!



(And I know this is totally not related to baby gifts...but these cupcakes that they served were FANTASTIC!!!! I think I ate like 8 of them!)
*BTW...Idk why this paragraph is blue and underlined!)



I had a lot of fun today washing all these sweet things up and putting them away where they belong. :) Now we just need a baby to try them all out on!!! C'mon baby Bauman! Hurry up!!

R.I.P Sophie...almost

Today I almost killed my cat. I found her--again--in the baby's crib. Last time I caught her curled up in there, I threatened to skin her alive and use her fur to make a baby blanket out of.

Today, I fully planned on carrying this threat out. But, by the time I had tracked my camera down and taken a picture of her, I had forgotten how mad I was at her.

That doesn't mean I let stay in the crib--but at least I didn't tear her apart. Instead, I tracked my spray bottle down and gave her a good old fashioned shower. She was very wet when I was finished with her, but she's grateful to still be alive and in one piece.

Next time Sophie...next time will be the last time.

I'm thinking...I'm thinking...

I'm trying to think of something--anything!--that I can do with these adorable little birdies against the baby's nursery wall. Nothing is coming to me. :-(

Back to thinking...

Promised Pictures

Here are the pictures that I promised I'd post. Of some of the kids there are multiple pictures...that's because I couldn't decide which I liked best.
