Kelsey's Announcement

My sister made the cutest announcements for Kelsey, check it out!

Kelsey Lynn Faucette has arrived!

What can I say, but I have another woman in my life. Good thing is, my wife is cool with it! Kelsey Lynn Faucette was born August 21st, at 4:04 pm. She weighed in at 7 lbs., 15 ounces, and a whopping 20 inches. HUGE! Well, not really. But what she lacks in size she MORE than makes up for in cuteness. Look, I could go on and on about how great she is, but I will let the pictures speak for themselves. I will be short and just say that everything with the birth went well. Nicole perfomed just as beautifully as she is, and Kelsey was born. Hope you like. I know you will.

When is she coming!!!?

So, I just had my last doctor's appt. today to see if I'm dialated at all and....I'm not. I'm 38 weeks and 2 days and I was hoping she would come on her own, but since they think she's a big girl they can't wait until my due date which is August 26th. So, I'm being induced on Wednesday the 20th at 3pm. The bad news, from what the doc and other people have told me is that being induced takes a really long time. I wont actually have her until the following evening which means I have to stay in the hospital for what will seem like an eternity. Hopefully the sleeping pill they give me will make it go a bit faster. :)
In the mean time I hope this next week goes by fast because I'm getting really anxious to see her! We can't wait!

Coming Soon...

Please come and join me for my baby shower!

Mr. & Mrs. Shrode

Holly and Justin's wedding day was absolutely gorgeous. I was her maid of honor, a role I've never played before...she kept me in line for sure! (I don't like to say matron because it sounds so matronly :).

It ended up being a perfect day in Santa Barbara. They were married in a pretty park that overlooked the whole city. She looked beautiful in her satin beaded dress with that gorgeous antique hat. It was so much fun!

I finally graduated!!!

These are photos of my graduation/portfolio show at the Fashion Show Mall. I won best in show for Interior Design for my portfolio booth display. I graduated with my Bachelor's in Interior Design from the Art Institute of Las Vegas in November of '07.

So happy to be done, but I kind of miss it.
