Fantastic Baby Shower!

Its been a busy few weeks, so I haven't had a chance to blog lately, but needed to get on here to write about my amazing baby shower that was held at the beginning of November.

First off, I'd like to thank my wonderful friends and family for all the fantastic gifts we received. It was great to see everyone and spend some time catching up. Special thanks goes out to Jess for organizing the entire thing. I was delighted when I arrived and saw all the decorations, the diaper cake and the games she had planned. The soon-to-be grandma's helped with the food (which was delicious) and my dear friends Sarah and Kelly helped with games, presents and bringing cameras and the amazing cake.

As mentioned we got some amazing gifts! We got receiving blankets, adorable outfits, handmade blankets, a stroller and carseat combo, shoes, hats, a memory book, diapers, wipes, a bouncy chair, bottles, bath products, toys and so much more. It really really helped us start our collection of all the things you need for when baby arrives. We were also lucky enough to receive some gift cards which we used to purchase a playpen, snugli infant carrier, diaper bag, swing, exersaucer, bathtub and various small items we needed. We finally are beginning to feel ready for our little girl to make her appearance.

Thanks again to everyone for making my shower a memorable event. I feel lucky that I have such a wonderful support network of friends and family. Love you all!
