After I had the baby shower with my residents at Aspen Trace, I had two other beautiful showers. One with the Fowler side of the family in P-town and the other one with the Rhoton side of the family in Ohio.

First, the P-town shower. Sadly, I dont have nearly as many pictures of this shower as I do the Ohio one. Obviously, I wasnt thinking.

Me and the cake...

Three generations of moms! My Grandma Saxman, me, and my Mom.

My P-town shower was very nice and low key, just as requested. I am so thankful for all the people that came to show their support and love for Baby Rhoton already. 

Remi could not believe all the baby goodies we got! He thought they all were for him :)

Then the week after that shower I had my shower in Ohio with Dans side of the family. Once again it was super nice and we felt so blessed with all the family and friends that attended.

Even though Im not the "party" type, both showers were really nice and I enjoyed myself very much.  Baby Rhoton got a lot of nice things and we actually feel as prepared as we possibly can at this point in time. BIG thank you to everyone who has thought of us along the way during this exciting and scary time in our lives!! We are blessed beyond words!

Do you ever get to that point in your life when it is like EVERYTHING imaginable starts to pile up on you all at once. You try and try to keep up with all the demands that are facing you, with a huge smile on your face of course, and then suddenly right before your eyes the demands disappear and youre at the point where you are sitting there wondering... what now?

That is how these past few months have been for me. It seemed like at one point I was asking myself how I was going to make it through everything that had appeared on my plate and today Im a little shocked they are no longer there.

So as I slowly get myself accustomed to blogging again like I use to (Im sorry I fell off the face of the blogging world recently)... I hope to fill you in on what has been happening these past couple months which took so much of my energy and attention that you may have asked yourself what happened to me. Its been rough... a roller coaster of emotions... from shock, to happiness, to sadness, and everything in between... and Ill fill you in on everything in the posts to come.
