We are so loved!

This isn't really an "update" per se on Bailey and her progress but I still wanted to share with everyone and make sure that Bailey knew just how much she is loved when she reads this in the future.
I just wanted to let all of my friends know how much I appreciate them! I have had a few different groups of people ask us if they could have a baby shower for us and we have continually told people that we would prefer to wait until after Bailey's arrival just because we still have so many "unknowns" regarding what will happen at that time. However, there is an AWESOME group of women from my Church and Neighborhood that planned me a "Pamper Mom and Baby" shower anyway. It was SOOOO much fun to get together and just visit with them. As most of you all know, I am pretty quiet and don't "reach out" to people until I know them very well and having this awesome group of women get together to spend their evening with me - showing their interest and love in our situation and giving me such AMAZING gifts - meant more than I can even express in words. I want you all to know how much it truly meant to me. I have said it before and I will say it again - friendship, a smile, a hug ... those mean way more to me than anything else and you all have been so great at being there for me ... THANK YOU!!!!
In addition to the wonderful "Mom" gifts I got, I also got some things for our sweet little Bailey which, again, meant so much to me. We have not purchased anything for her - as hard as it has been for me - and I am so excited to finally have a few PINK things in my house!
The outfits, the scrapbooks, books, gift cards, nightgown, memory box, dolls, toys, etc, etc, etc (I could go on forEVER) as well as the yummy yummy treats - everything was wonderful! THANK YOU for your friendship .. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Please know how much I appreciate everything - our family is truly blessed and loved! We love you guys!
