Update...I'm not MIA...just REALLY busy! Baby Showers blog!

So it has been a while since I have blogged (about 2 month to be exact).  I have been super busy getting ready for Madden to arrive, and to think he could be here ANY day now!
So here is what has been going on with the Sterley's the last 2 months.
In April, I had 3 different baby showers (2 that I actually knew about).
The first was hosted by 2 of my lovely aunts and 2 of my favorite people (who are basically like my aunts).

A bunch of my friends and sorority sisters came too! I was SO excited to see them!
The decorations, food, and cake were beautiful!!!

Madden got some wonderful things!  Matt and I are truly blessed to have such supportive friends and family. 

My second shower was thrown by some of my wonderful friends and co-workers at school.  It was a sports themed shower (of course).  Here are some of the cute pictures from the shower:
Some of my sweet hostesses and friends:
It was so much fun!  I am so lucky to have such great friends at school! 

My 3rd shower was also at school, but it was thrown by my fantastic 6th graders.  It was a surprise shower, and BOY was I surprised!  The assistant principal called me to his office on a Friday afternoon to "talk".  He told me to wait in his office for a second, but didn't come back for like 5 minutes!  YES- I was a nervous wreck!  Finally, another teacher frantically ran in the office and asked if I could watch her class while she made a phone call.  I said sure, and walked down the hall to find my kids and about 10 moms in a classroom with food, gifts, and a party for me and Madden.
My teaching partner had the kids write letters of "advice" for Madden and put them all together in a booklet.  It was the cutest thing I have ever seen!  6th graders are hilarious!  They told him to date lots of girls, be a good athlete, and to mind his parents.  I am going to treasure those sweet letters forever and I can't wait to share them with Madden.

Overall, we have learned how supportive and loved Madden is.  We want all of our friends and family to know how thankful we are to have you in our lives.  We are blessed!
**I have more to blog about...more to come soon!
