What I'm Loving Wednesday!

It's a beautiful day here in Dallas, so what day could be better to join the WILW world!! I'm linking up with Jamie at This Kind of Love and Heather over at The Curvy Life


Lately, I have been LOVING the La Madeleine Chicken Parisien sandwich - no bacon, no mayo, add mustard!  It's been my "go to" lunch for a while now!!!
My friends have raved about this perfume and I now I love it too!  Plus I wore it the day of my baby shower so it will always bring happy memories everytime I wear it!


My little princess, Starrla!  She is my companion and always so sweet and loving and happy to see me!  She always makes my day when I walk through the door and she is beside herself with joy!



This AMAZING baby gift I got from the greatest friends/family a girl could have!  The Mamaroo!!
This puppy does it all!!  Even has an MP3 Player you can hook up, complete with its own auxilary cord and everything.  I have a feeling my Zane will be rockin' to some Elvis!



 
This show never ceases to make me laugh histerically!!!!  And it comes on tonight! YAY!

And as always I LOVE my guys! 
Me and the Hubby!

And OF COURSE our sweet baby boy, Zane!

I didn't forget Nova, our 100lb German Shepherd!  He's the biggest baby and sweetest boy!



I hope everyone is LOVING their Wednesday!  Make it a good one!!

Showered with Love!!

I know what you're thinking "long time, no post!" but not to fear I'm going to let you all in on what's been keeping me so busy and away from the blogging world...
BABY SHOWERS!!!  It's been so much fun!  I had 2 amazing baby showers, 1 given by lovely co-workers and the 2nd given by family and close friends!  (I'm still waiting on pics from my 1st shower) but in the mean time, here is the 2nd one:

First things first, ALL the credit that went in to making my baby shower as absolutely fabulous as it was goes to these lovely ladies whom I love so very much, my hostesses:
These ladies poured their heart and soul and some very long nights into my shower and I could not be more grateful to them!!

Everything that was planned was a surprise to me so when I walked in, I was overwhelmed with all the wonderful goodness I saw!


What a sweet and clever way for Zane and I to remember and cherish this day!  Every guest left us a sweet note and some words of wisdom!


The favors:

You may not remember, but in one of my very first blogs I told the story of how we announced our "bun in the oven".  How fitting was this as favors?? LOVE it!!


The Spread:
Aren't those flowers fabulous??  The "vase" is an alphabet block that my mother-in-law worked so hard on painting it, such a great idea!!  It will be going in the nursery!

My mom and mother-in-law found this, this was something I saw and really wanted and look how great it looks amidst the flowers!

The invitation (a little too bright to see, sorry)


Sitr sticks made by my talented sister-in-law and dad!


Milk and Cookies Bar:


Such a cute idea!!!  Loved every bit of this!


And there's more...
Me and my wonderful sister-in-law, notice the adorably creative corsage she made!

This is an amazing growth chart specially made all by my aunt and cousin, who is a very talented artist! 
There you have it!!  I feel abundantly loved and Zane will too!!  A BIG thank you to all who made this day possible and so incredibly special!! Now just a count down to his arrival!!

Scentsy Anyone??

I have the most wonderful Scentsy consultant, she is also a great friend of mine, Mindy Kral!  I was in desperate need of new scents, so tired of the cinnamon-y and spicy scents of fall and winter.  I needed some for Spring/Summer!  She was so gracious when she let me take a wiff of all the scents so I could make an informed decision!  I am sure many of you Scentsy lovers, like me, browse the catalogs and the name sounds as if it would smell great but you get it and realize, "ok this is not the scent for me!"  On the flip side, there are so many that I had just passed right over not thinking they would actually smell great!!  Here are the new scents I got: 
This is my new FAVE!!!!!  It almost smells like a light/airy perfume you've been wearing all day, so it's not overpowering, it's subtle.  It's supposedly a favorite for many Scentsy lovers!

This one smells similar to Luna!  I love it!!

        I have this one going in my spare bedroom right now!

This one has been a favorite of mine for a long time!

This I am very excited about!  I bought this for Zane's room to give it a newborn baby scent!  Right now it smells like paint and new carpet-not bad scents mind you, I just want it to smell sweet and innocent like a precious little baby!  Check it out:

Lenny the Lamb!  Isn't he sweet???  I think I will place him on the bookshelf for now, he will be filled with this scent:
Newborn Nursery, what else?? I can't wait! Don't worry I will remove the scent pack when he decides he wants to play with little Lenny!
