Baby Shower #1

On November 15th, Jamie and Jill threw us the most amazing baby shower. Nick and I (and baby) are so blessed to be a part of such an awesome, loving family. We are also blessed with a great network of friends that have been too nice and supportive throughout this pregnancy. Jamie, Jill, and Mom did not leave a single detail out of this baby shower. They decorated a boy table, a girl table, and a neutral table. There was pink punch. There was blue punch. The cake and snacks were delish! There was a great turnout and a couple of fun games. It was so great, Sarah Beth's Mom even mentioned how it was the most fun baby shower she had ever been to and she only knew a handful of people there.

We were showered with lots of REALLY GREAT gifts too. We left with a Pack and Play, car seat, stroller, loads of diapers and wipes,a Diaper Genie, several beautiful hand made blankets from grandma's and great-grandma's, bottles, toys, clothes, and so much more. When we made it back to Wharton and unloaded the truck, the baby's room looked like a tornado hit it. Nick re-opened all of the gifts and we tucked them all away.

On December 6th, we have another baby shower in Wharton. It looks like we may have to turn the guest bedroom over to the baby as well.

Jamie, Jill, and Mom....thank you so much, from the bottom of hearts, for making this time in our lives so special. You truly outdid yourselves and I cannot wait for ya'lls baby showers!!! :)

Don't you worry by Feb 15 (I like to over shoot, just in case!), not a room in your house will belong to you anymore.

By Feb 15, 2011 the baby will have received birthday and christmas presents from overzelous family members and you will have to move into the house on wheels while the baby lives in your house.

And you think I'm joking!!
