Baby Shower success in the hospital:)

What a great shower, I don't think it could have gone any better. I can't believe everyone came to the hospital for my shower. It was fun, awesome and overwhelming. I honestly have never felt so loved and cared for. I just wish I could squeeze everyone in my room and keep them here with me:) I hate that everyone had to leave.

My sister took a ton of pictures so I will share a few:)

My Darling Aaron showed up in my room with a cute smile and a PINK shirt. Seriously, how cute and adorable is he? He said he wore it for his girls, all 3 of us. So damn cute and he can wear pink and still look manly. I have said it a million times and I will say it again, I LOVE THIS MAN!!! Our girls are so lucky to have such an awesome man for a daddy!

Of course no Pink shirt would be left without a Boston Red Sox hat:) hehehe





My sisters, mom and mother in law did everything to make the conference room look like a real party room. I loved it and felt so lucky to have such great family and friends!
This is called working with what you got:)


My cake was adorable made by one of my best friends Alecia, she has her own little business. All you local ladies (greater cincy area) should look her up- Sugar Mamas
She made my favorite filling, chocolate chip cheesecake (I think I have that right). This cake went soooo fast!


Oh the cookies, they were made my Vicki- Center stage Sweets. She made the cookies for my RE when I graduated from him. The cookies went even faster. They were adorable and delicious! I'm lucky I got one. She has major skills. Vicki will ship cookies anywhere and they are well worth it. They keep so well.


It was a great day. I can't believe how much stuff the girls received. They have so many cute and adorable outfits to wear. They are going to be the best dressed girls in town. I just wish I could have gone home with all the stuff and just oogle over everything. It was so cute. I held so many tears back. So grateful to everyone and everything!

I will be writing thank you notes until my hand falls off.

We really only played one game and my niece Hannah was dying to play it. How pieces of toilet paper will it take to go around my belly. I will say my sisters weren't that nice about it. The final total was 12!!! There were 3 winners- Amanda, Tiffany and Adrian (who turned 21 on Saturday).



Here are a few pictures from the party!


Here are my sisters- left to right:
Sandy(sister-in law), Cindy, me and my oldest sister Michelle(aka..Sissy)
I didn't get a good picture of my mom and I, I really wanted to share, but these are the ladies who made the shower a success at the hospital! Thank you!!!


This is my niece Hannah and I! She is a little cutie pie!
She is soooo excited about the babies and them being girls.
She was also dressed in pink for the occasion!


Now, have you ever been to a shower where it had to be stopped to check for vitals? This is something I will NEVER EVER EVER forget. I laughed the entire time. How embarrassing, but hilarious. It's a good thing it takes a lot to turn me red!


Aaron and I opening gifts. He did a good job knowing what most of the items were. He had the most trouble with car shades. He just could not figure out what they were. The one thing I thought he would know. Yeah nothing;) Again... This man is ADORABLE!




Just posing with presents:)




Thanks again to everyone who made this happen. I couldn't have been happier. I felt like a queen for a day with my two little princesses.

On to the hospital situation:


They really aren't telling me too much. I know I have another Doppler umbilical artery check tomorrow and week 28 blood work sometime this week. I will be here at least 2 weeks, that's when they will do another growth scan of the babies. Of course I am hoping to get out of here, but I really don't see it happening. Callista is going to have to do some major catching up.


I am doing the 24 hour urine test now that all the bleeding has stopped. I am just here and laying in bed hoping for a new room, a private one.


If you are Facebook friends with me you can see how miserable I am with my current room situation. I am still in a room with a roommate and I am going absolutely crazy. I don't do well with other people in my room. I want some privacy. I am in the corner of the room and I am feeling claustrophobic. I am right next to the AC and it's causing some breathing issues for me. I have had to use inhaler several times. They are going to have to move me to the psych ward soon.

As of right now I know there are 2 rooms open, but no one will tell me if I am next on this list to get one. Please pray I am!!!! I need a new room, like YESTERDAY!


Thanks to those that have come to visit, I have really enjoyed it!
