Whats up with the name??

Once i heard 'Upside Down Pickle in a Jar' as a metaphor for a baby in a womb, and thought it was pretty fitting for our blog. This is for all the family and friends that Ben and I unfortunately dont get to speak to often. You can feel like you are here in all the action!

Mike from Oregon

So Finn's got this Aunt.
She's not blood related or related by marriage.
But she is Finn's Aunt, and also his Godmotherish figure. See, I hate the word Godmother, and besides, my religion doesn't have those, so we just use the word Aunt. lol
She has come over twice this week after work and hung out with me.

The first night, we talked about shower stuff and I let her see all my baby and pregnancy things.

Amy is not only planning a baby shower, but she's also planning her WEDDING. Girls got a lot going on, and I really appreciate her. But anyways, She brought me an extra box of invitations for my January 21st shower.
Funny story, these invitations.
Let's see, i am only going to tell this because I think it's hilarious.
So Amy and Morgan are throwing me this shower. Amy ordered the invitations from a popular photo and invitation website.... rhymes with butterfly.... and she ordered 37. She called me one night to tell me something that "might make me mad" It was that the invitations might not be received by the guests until 10  days before the shower. It didn't make me mad, by the way, and she told me that they had that I was registered at target, Kohl's and Babies R Us...I didn't register at Kohl's, but I thought  it was funny.
A few days later she found out that she never placed the order, and so she was able to change the registry info and still get them at the same time. So in the meanwhile, she shows me how cute they are with little owls, and everything was great!
Then one day last week, she was sitting with me at work and said she got a phone call from a Man in Oregon who told her he had received her order along with his. So all of the shower invitations were exactly in the opposite corner of the US. So she freaked out and called the company and they said they could ship her 37 more and they would still get there by the original deliver date. So she was ok with that. Then she goes home that night after she called the company, and what's in her  mailbox? That's right, 37 MORE invitations. So now, she has 37, Mike in Oregon has 37, plus there are 37 on the way to her house. So this is a photo of how Amy feels about these baby shower invitations:
