so sad my showers over :-(

okay....ssoooooo its been a while....where do i begin?!?!? okay ill start with my shower.....I had a great turn out!! i feel bad because i couldnt talk as much to everyone as i wanted because there was soo many people there....therefore sooo many presents!! aahh it was crazy....im sooo thankful tho!! we have EVERYTHING we need and more!! So first off thanks everyone!! I have a lot more pictures from the shower with the cake and with family members but they were not on my camera...they are on grandpa Jacks and im too lazy to wait for them to download....maybe one day..."maybe" ill put them on here.....but for now i have these few of me opening presents.....the monkey bank from mawmaw.....goes great with Paytons room...this balloon matches the little monkey from my invitations and the monkey on my cake....i kept her of course and she is in one of the scrapbooks that my friends caitlyn and sharon gave me....oh this is just me and Alex reading cards and writing down names and gifts...which by the way i am almost done my thank you notes....i had to write about 70...sooo as you all know i take forever to do things and i love to dilly dally...but im almost done i promise....so this is just one of tyhe piles of gifts....its kinda hard to tell what everything is....sooo this is an extra bed room in the house...it stayed like this fro a few weeks...untill one day i decided to go through it...Kate came over and we cute the tags off of everything and somewhat seperated it....

ggooo Saints!...these are the little Saints outfits that we got and my favorite part is the little fleur de lis booties that match them...i cant wait to put them on her!!! okayy so i had to take a picture of all her nunu's....i think maybe it's because i was a nunu baby...i love all of them!!....and a lot of them have little sayings on them...and some have her name!...aww i just love the nunus!

this is the "bath" pile....it looks A lot bigger in person!!! the basket is huge!!!

this picture is kinda small but i just wanted you to get a little look at her new hamper...we used gif cards to buy it...thanks again everyone!!

this picture is small too sorry...but this is just the clothes that we received from the shower....doesnt look like as much as it does in real life! so this is mommy and daddy diaper bags.....mine of course is already packed! i couldnt help myself....i sometimes carry it around the room...seems easy now...and ive seperated each little compartment into its own section....like diaper things...then feeding things...then of course extra clothes and toys :-D...Jason has yet to pack his but i'm sure as we get closer he will!this is our new safety gate...we use to have one at the bottom of the stairs because of the dogs...but now we took that one down and got this cool little gate and its at the top of the stairs...soo as you can see Mrs. Lola and Mr. Elvis sit up here and cry because they want to be by us....only sometimes if we are watching them we let them come in...and some mornings i let them run in our room and wake up Jason haha they don't really like the new gate too much but i think its pretty nice this is the feeding pile...highchair, bottles, etc.
this is the big stuff....her lovely swing, travel swing, car seat, stroller, bouncer, and pack n play....like i said we got EVERYTHING and more!! THANKS EVERYONE!!!
this is the inside of Payton's carseat...i actually did this myself this morning....i put the new born headreast, the pink starp cover things, and i also hung the carseat toy thing..i dont know what its called....but it looks comfortable....and fun...hopefully she likes it :-)


so i tried to get some new things in this picture...like the awesome sign above her closet that Stacey got us....i absolutely love it!! i should have taking a close up of it to put on here but its got a monkey, a giraffe, and an elephant surrounding "Payton" and the colors match the room sooo good!! we also hung up the little picture frame things for her foot and hand prints...theres alot of new things in the room...you will just have to come over to see it alll....
