Great time in Germantown

This whole past week I've been in Germantown spending some wonderful time with family and friends. I know this will probably be the last trip I make home before our baby girl arrives. Andrew and I have decided to name her Kinley Ruth. We chose the name Kinley because my brother is a big mountain climber and even climbed Mt. McKinley in Alaska. We chose Ruth because we had been trying to have a child for a while. Our small group at church was reading through the book of Ruth. On the last night of the study, we were talking about how Ruth had been barren with her first husband and when she married Boaz, God blessed them with a child. We were able to tell our group that night that we were pregnant. We're very thankful for everyone's prayers and wanted to have a reminder of God's blessing to us. Later, we found out that Ruth is a family name on both Andrew's side and my side. :)

I had my first baby shower this past Saturday hosted by my mom's sweet friends. It was such a fun morning and I got some great things for Kinley. Here are some pics from the shower. I cannot figure out how to rotate the pictures. :(
