shower #2

My wonderful friends, along with my mom, threw me a shower in May. It was beyond anything I imagined. It was so much fun. Unfortunately, it was too cold and windy to have it outside, like originally planned, but still no less awesome.


My closest girlfriends are all former co-workers at Pier 1. All six of us were either managers or associates and had the privilege to work together often. Let's just say that there was never a dull, or boring moment, a ton of fun always took place. Below, in the back row is Katie, me, Michelle, and Mandy. In the front row is Melissa and Alicia. They are extremely generous and gorgeous ladies that would do anything for me...and I the same. Thanks girls for such a fantastic time!!!! Talk about generous...this is our pack-n-play that the girls got Josie and us, and it is FULL!!!! Everything we need was included from diapers, laundry detergent, clothes, pajamas, and more. They are so very gracious.

Other fantasitic highlights came from my Aunt Diane. She gave Josie a holiday gift pack. Once opened, I found Christmas wrapping paper, with Christmas clothes, books, bibs, etc. Then, Halloween, Easter, Valentine's Day. We recieved her monitors, bathing supplies, clothes, clothes, and more clothes. We recieved 2 hand-made blankets made by my mom and her neighbor, Tina. The greatest idea was to give us a book with an inscription, instead of a card. Now, she is forming her own library. I can't wait to read to Josephine!

Dave and I are so appreciative of all the wonderful, thoughful gifts that people gave us. We are truly blessed. I cannot say thank you enough for everything. I was overwhelmed with great, happy emotion. I just can't wait to see our little darling in all the gear and goodies. She is set for years!

This is my baby picture on the cake. I was very bald...will she be??? 7 weeks until we find out...
