It all started on Tuesday at 1am: my convo with hubby..True Story!! Me: I am having really bad contraction, I think today might be THE day!!! Hubby: (serious face) Really? Can you just wait and have her on Thursday? Me: Um I don't think I have a choice hunnie. Hubby: Oh ok, then just wait until Wednesday then. So after 8 hours of really bad and painful contraction, (oh and since we didn't think we were going to have her this week, we decided to pack last minute) Hubby took me to the hospital at 9:10 am Tuesday and I had her at 10:19am, with only 20 min of pushing and no epidural. I was fully dilated so it was too late to get the epidural..trust me, I wanted to scream at everyone because they couldnt give me the drugs. The pain was unbearable and I wish they could just give me some drugs to ease the pain, but nope 20 minutes later, I saw my baby girl with happy tears. Doctor said if I was stuck in traffic or came any later, I could have had her in the car!! Meet Kayl...

I love LOVE Korean food. I would love to travel to Korea some day just to pig out and eat all the yummy food there. Baby girl has been craving for korean bbq this week so I thought why not try to make some. It was super easy and hubby thought that it was pretty good too! You can get the sauce at any asian grocery and season it for 30 min with some beef ribs. I think it's better if it's grilled but I cooked over the stove. Turned out pretty good and tasty. Ooh and here is a baby bump picture :D Hubby and I are getting ready this week for the arrival of our baby girl. Im packing for the hospital right now and working half days all this week. I have a feeling she may come end of this week or early next week. I am super duper nervous, scared, and of course excited too. If you dont hear from me for awhile, you'll know where I'll be :0) { I love my new scarf ! }

Came home yesterday and saw this beautiful scarf and earrings waiting for me :0) Huge thanks to Michaela over at Michaela Noelle Designs and Meadow Boutique for such an awesome giveaway. I seriously LOVE LOVE it. and thanks for the sweet words in your card too! The vibrant colors of the card matches the scarf! Here is my pregnant self over 37 weeks with the beautiful scarf on..I know the picture does not do justice on how nice the scarf really is because of the bad lighting. This week I finished our baby shower video, It's only 3 min long but it seriously took me a whole week to edit this thing!!! Hope you enjoy, cant wait to share this with our baby girl in about..hmm couple weeks! yikes! Happy Thursday everyone! and thank you for all the sweet comments on the nursery reveal!

I have to say this week has the best week ever! Over the weekend, my friend threw me a gorgeous baby shower with our close friends. If you havent seen the pictures, they are pretty awesome with sweet details! I still cant get over it!! oh it's not over yet, at work my Manager and co-workers threw me a surprise lunch baby shower!! My mouth dropped to the floor when I walked into the restaurant filled with lovely faces all waiting for me. I seriously feel so loved this week! I wish I had put on a lil makeup that morning and wear something cute because I barely had any sleep that day and was running late for work O_o We played games, had cake, good food, awesome presents, and best of all great people! { Check out my other baby shower }

Over the weekend, we had our baby shower that my dear friend threw us. It was such an awesome experience since I have never in my life been to a baby shower before so it was awesome to go to your very own shower! Everyone had such a great time, including the guys. It is definitely going into my scrapbook to show our lil girl later on. Sorry for pix overload!! { The cute decor } { DIY Diaper Cake from Uyen and Nhi } { The ONLY thing I crave for during my pregnancy and my friends made sure there were some at the shower :) } { Awesome stroller that my friend carved: how cute is it??!! } The guys had a lil bit too much fun, especially diaper game and the balloons :D { Awesome gifts from all of our wonderful friends! } At the end of the night, lots of sweet gifts from our awesome friends! This baby shower would not be possible without this girl! she did such a wonderful job with planning out the food, decor, and games. Thank you thank you Nhi for every...

Hope everyone had a great weekend, this whole weekend all hubby and I did was watched Dexter Season 1 and 2. I guess you can say we are addicted to that show now, thanks to our 30 day trial with Netflix that we just signed up. Im getting all the baby prints together to put in our nursery so here is another one I did. Finally got the change to take some outdoor pix with baby bump :)

Can't believe that I'll be 34 weeks this coming Saturday. That's 8.5 months so we will be meeting our lil angel pretty soon! I have gained about 30 lbs! O_o but it's a good thing, baby needs a lot of good nutrients in there. Here I am at 24 Weeks Can you believe that I have NOT bought any maternity clothes yet?? Just been wearing and buying a lot of comfortable clothes and wearing hubby sweat pants at home. =) btw last week I did some baby prints for the nursery, here it is printed! Matching nicely with the bedding sheets from Target . I'm so excited to hang them up! I know I am probably not the only one that didn't buy any maternity clothes throughout their pregnancy, anyone did the same?
