“I’m convinced…I’m the luckiest girl in the world,” Sanya captioned a series of sweet Instagram photos from her baby shower. In the first photo, the peach-holder stood with her husband, who wore a light and dark blue swirl sweater and white slacks, while her son also wore a blue sweater with white writing and jeans.
Sanya, for her part, looked glowing in a high-neck long-sleeved blue midi jersey dress that featured a cutout around her midriff. The track star paired her sexy sheath with white embellished strappy heels and drop statement earrings, rocking her hair in a short blunt chop and wearing blue eyeshadow and blue nails to complete the look.

Yesterday was my shower for my sweet boy but [Aaron] you showered me with an unconditional love that made me feel like the only person in the room. I’m so grateful for you and my charismatic Mr Deucey-Doo. Life is good. Thank you, God. The countdown to [Baby Ross] is on[.]”

Back in July, Sanya announced her pregnancy to People magazine shortly after she revealed she suffered a “traumatic” miscarriage. While she admitted to initially being hesitant about expanding her family, she told the outlet the challenging experience ended up changing her perspective.
“I didn’t realize until then how much I really wanted to become a mom again and how much of a blessing it is to be a mom,” she explained. “And I was like, ‘You know what? It’s family first, and all the other things that I love — which is work and all that stuff, it’s second. I know if I do this, if I focus on my family, all those things will come.’”
Sanya’s second baby boy is due on December 25.
