Busy, Busy, Busy & WAY Behind!

I haven't posted in over a month! Talk about neglectful!
Danas birthday party is over and I'm hoping to get pictures from Vance. As luck would have it, when I finally finished my projects the batteries in the camera died! I captured what I could and took a few pictures of everything after the party was over, but Vance should have more. I need to upload those pictures onto the computer and post them. Of course, my excuse for not having done it yet is... I have been extremely busy AND right now, I can barely keep my eyes open.

I do have a few things going on this week and a few projects that I need to tackle, but I will make myself upload the pictures. I also need to create a banner for my blog.

I have started working on my sister-in-laws shower. Her theme is the prints of the baby bedding she chose.

Paisley Splash by My Baby Sam (available at Babies'R'Us)
It has green, aqua, brown and yellow in it but she also wants splashes of raspberry pink. The prints are paisley, stripes and polk-a-dots.

I have also started working on another baby shower. A few weeks ago I started training to be a volunteer at the Austin Pregnancy Resource Center http://www.austinprc.org/ and I am part of a group of amazing women who will be working at a new location in South Austin. We are hoping to buy a place off of Ben White right next to an abortion clinic. Anyway, each center has a boutique that is full of stuff for moms-to-be/moms who are in need of baby items. Since our location will be new, we won't have anything to start off with for the boutique so we are going to host a baby shower. We are accepting new AND used items... we'll take what we can get! The major things are the big items such as a swing, bouncer, crib, etc. I am not able to donate A LOT from Miles' stuff since Julia & Melissa are both due and need baby stuff. What Julia doesn't take is offered to Melissa and then what she doesn't take will go to the boutique. I do plan to go through everything and even purchase more items.
Anyway, we have started planning the shower and the theme is going to be "Baby Bird". There will be nests, birds, etc. Here are some pictures I have gathered together. They have accumulated over time so I may not know exactly who to credit so if I don't give credit where credit is deserved I apologize, just let me know. I will remove your picture upon request.
