First Shower!!!

Last Saturday was my first shower and it was perfect!! My cousin Katy along with my sister's Amy, Lara and Cindy hosted it. I'd also like to thank Mary Kaye and Lyndsey for helping out as well. The food and cake were very tasty - of course that could just be my hightened appetite and sweet tooth, but I know I wasn't the only one that enjoyed it!

We received lots of wonderful things, most items were large ones from my registry, but the few I received that weren't I'm sure I will get plenty of use of and wish I would've thought to add them in the first place!

I'd really like to thank my sisters for giving us the carseat/stroller as that is highly necessary and my parents for giving us the highchair. I know we won't use that one for a little bit, but will definetly wear it in a few months after he's born. Also, my Aunt Mary Kaye gave us the video monitor! Brian is very excited to play with this and a few other items we received (sensory thermometer, baseball outfits for baby, and animal books just to name a few). We received lots of bath stuff, bottles & feeding items, clothing, blankets and even the bouncy chair (thanks Michelle!).

As for the baby - all seems to be well and I'm at 30 weeks currently so only 10 more to go!!! I'm getting really excited that it's getting closer and receiving all the baby items is really helping making me feel more at ease that we will have everything we need to provide for the little guy. Now it's just a countdown!
