Annalee's First Shower

 Annalee's first shower was last weekend in Abilene.  It turned out so cute and we were very blessed by all the great gifts she received! Here's the shower in pictures...

Sweet Hostesses

Annalee's GayGay (It's her 7th grandbaby) and ???? (Traca is still searching for her grandma name. Dallas is calling her "Babushka" for now so she better decide fast!)

Cute banner Bethany made - this must go on Pinterest!

Little bags that were filled with popcorn

Another cute idea Kelsey made was a tree of our baby pictures

So excited she got a tutu from Crystal - many pictures will be taken in this!

I'm looking forward to the first time Dallas has to do her hair...



Crystal will keep her stylish in the shoe department



I saved some gifts for Dallas to open when he got there at the end.  He loves presents!

Misty got this for her - If you make this picture larger it is a very sweet letter written to Annalee from Jesus.  Could possibly make you teary eyed...or maybe just did that to her mom.

Another sentimental thing she got from Traca - we will definitely be taking a picture with that tiny bracelet on her.  This made Dallas get emotional....he says no one will be good enough to ever date her! Haha.

Adorable gift from Grandma Cooper

Mom got her diaper bag!

This is a bow holder I made about a month ago.  It was super easy to make and I love how it turned out!  Misty and Mom have started her bow collection - which I think might turn out to be excessive because I love bows!

I think this might be the outfit she will wear home from the hospital.  It is so incredibly tiny!  We are so ready to meet our sweet baby girl!

In other news:  Dallas is loving coaching girls volleyball.  He did not know what to expect being the first time to coach girls and since Wylie did not have volleyball when we were there...everything about this experience was new.  I went to the first game and it is a very different experience from boys basketball...the sound of screaming jr. high girls fill the gym the WHOLE time! He also got promoted to head of the basketball program at BDJH so this year he will have his almost undefeated boys from last year and coach 8th grade A.  He does such a great job with the kids!

Aggies & Baby Update

For labor day weekend we went to College Station to hang out with family and go to the first Aggie football game of the season.  We love going back to Aggieland and being apart of the spirit and tradition.  I searched for a little onesie for Annalee's first aggie outfit but couldn't find one smaller than 6 months.  Mom bought her a cute little t-shirt that she can wear during basketball season though!
Few pictures from game day:

And yes after matching their whole life Abe and Addison occasionaly match on accident.  Misty and I bought the same shirt at a tent sale too at different times.

With the newlyweds

Sweet girl (with a little static in her hair) watching March In - she was fascinated.

In baby news...Annalee's room is getting closer and closer to being completed.  My sister, Amy, is sewing her bedding and doing an awesome job!  Here is a picture of her valance and the front bumper that is done:

What a blessing to have a girl cousin that will be a year and a half older! First of all because of all the great memories they will make together! And all the hand me downs!  Jency girl has stocked Annalee's closet and probably will for many years to come! (This isn't even all of it pictured below!)



Just for memory sake I took a picture of a few of her first "things":

A super soft stuffed animal from Lenda Jensen, book and adorable shoes from Misty, and yes I had to buy her a princess frame! (My nickname in my family is Queen so it's fitting to get her started early! :) )

And finally the updated belly pic - she's growing fast!
