3 months to go!

The wedding is 3 months from today!!

Only 3 more months to go before I am married to the greatest guy ever! Then we get to go on our awesome honeymoon! Then we get to come back hom and move into a new apartment and start our life together! I am pretty darn excited...can you tell?

The wedding arrangements are all coming together quite nicely...I hope I don't hit any hiccoughs because so far it has been pretty smooth sailing. I am heading back to Muncie early next week to do my first dress fitting. I was a bit afraid to do it in Chicago because it is such a big place and I couldn't really find any first hand references for a good alterations place, so my knows a lady back home who used to do a lot of wedding dress alterations and said she could probably do it. So I'm going to meet with her Wednesday...after she looks at the dress if she doesn't think she can do it then she said she knows several other people that could. So...I'm on the way to making my dress not 3 feet too long (obviously an exaggeration, but seriously it is way long on me!). I am doing quite a few DIY projects for the wedding and I've at least got all of them started now, with a few completely finished.

I started working on the slideshow of Shawn and I so I have been gathering pictures from our parents to scan into the computer. Oh wow...I have found some cute and not so cute pics of both of us! Mimi likes to call all my toddler pics the Michelin Man (she's so freakin mean!) and once Shawn started getting taller he got SO skinny that hit legs look like twigs! Oh funny stuff! I did find some super cute pictures though!

My first Christmas with my Abuela.

This is right before Mimi was born...so I'm about 15 months old. These are the pictures that Mimi likes to make fun of, although she wasn't such a skinny baby and she should shut it!

Shawn is right around 1 here. This is the summer of this first birthday. Wasn't he just adorable?!?

Shawn is still trying to figure out why is mom got him pink jammies...but oh well because he looks adorable with those blue eyes and the blonde curly hair! Love it!

Shawn's parents and Shane are coming to visit today. We're going to go meet my Dad & Ana for breakfast right after they get here. Shawn's family wants to go to the Field Museum of Natural History downtown and Shane is so excited to ride the train! I won't get to tag along for the museum because I have to work tonight, but they are going to stay the night so I'll get to see them in the morning tomorrow when I get home from work as well. They haven't seen our apartment yet, so that'll be fun! Stephanie said that we didn't need to clean up for them coming, but we did anyway. I mean, minimal cleaning effort on my part as usual (haha) but we did clean and tidy up!

Shawn is off work for the next few days, but of course I'm working :( His manager just can't quite seem to get the picture that he'd like to be able to have at least one of his days off each week on a day that I'm also off work. Oh well, maybe he'll have slightly more control over his schedule now because he got some great news the other day from work that he's being promoted to Assistant Manager of the store! We are so excited! He'll be meeting with the District Manager early next week to work out all the details. Such good news!
