Showers of Blessings

One of the fun parts about pregnant at this time is that one of my great friend's Heather Jackson is also pregnant! I love that along with our husbands we all work for the Urban Eagles, we live less than 5 minutes away from each other, and both of the neighborhoods we live and work in are consumed by mainly refugees. We already have so much in common, to throw babies in there too just makes it that much better! Our hanging out time will soon turn into play dates, and I am totally okay with that :)

Heather had a baby shower today and it was so special and beautiful. She was absolutely glowing! (I mean, check her out!) I am so excited for Heather and her husband Stephen and I can't wait until the day when I get to meet that little baby girl! God is blessing this child with some amazing parents and she is going to grow up having a hunger for Christ like none other!


So of course when I found out Heather was pregnant I was so excited to start making little baby stuff! When we learned that she was having a girl I made little leggings for her right away. (I'm sorry I don't have pics of the leggings but don't worry, when I find out what I'm having those are one of the first things I'll be making!) For her shower I decided to make her a diapers and wipes clutch/case. It was super easy and the fabric I found was super cute! (her nursery is owl themed :) I found this amazing tutorial at Just a Bit Frayed. However, I added a little wrist sling so Heather can be hands free to take care of that sweet baby girl. I was so excited to give it to her, and by her reaction, I think she loves it too!

Isn't she just glowing? Her due date is May 23 which is a special day for Stephen and Heather
because it's also their wedding anniversary :) 





I can't wait to make my own for my little Juice Drop!!!

    ...and I love it!! I actually am not a fan of diaper bags because I don't want to carry that and a purse so I just throw my clutch in my purse and anything else I may need!
