Macon Baby Shower

I feel full. Not just because I have a big baby inside and eat pizza like it's going out of style. My heart feels full too. With yesterday being Mother's Day and all, Carson and I went to the pool and swam and talked for awhile. (Yes... I was wearing a HOT maternity bathing suit:) It was a good day. A day of reflection. I was thinking back to last Mother's Day and how it was a hard day for me. A hard day for both of us. Lots of doubts and questioning. Well, since then God has revealed himself to us in so many ways. He has shown us that he is faithful to us, even when we don't and can't have a child. And yesterday he reminded me that I am so blessed. Blessed to have a son who is almost here, and blessed to have Jesus, who never leaves me. He is enough. He is enough. And he is faithful. I have had to preach that to my unbelieving heart so many times this past year. But, I felt so full on Mother's Day this year. Full with gratitude for Jesus, who is faithful.

A few weeks ago, my sweet high school friends threw me a baby shower in Macon. It was such a picture of God's faithfulness again. Having them, along with other family and friends, love on us was so overwhelming. It was a very fun day.



Maggie and Mia

My bff's from high school. Their moms hosted the shower with them, but I failed to get a picture with everybody. Oooops.


The softest blanket ever that Granny made for him!









Royal girls

Pyles girls minus Mom.

My favorite girl in the world.

That night, there was a cookout/shower for Austin and Anna Caroline at my parents' house. We are missing Stevie in the pic though.
