Baby's Shower!


Saturday was Baby's shower in MN.  Laura Olin and Katie Mooty outdid themselves and threw an amazing shower--they thought of everything!  I am so richly blessed with amazing friends and family.  It started with some catching up, then we had a great brunch, and then played games galore!  Oh I LOVE games!  Then we opened gifts and were able to talk, and then it was wrapped up with everyone getting to choose an ornament from the tree!  I have many cherished memories with all the special people that were able to attend, we missed those who couldn't be there!  We got so many wonderful gifts-everyone is so generous.  Baby, you have a LOT of people that love you.  When I got home last night, PJ was shocked by all the gifts!  It was so fun putting everything away, I stood in front of the closet almost in disbelief that a baby will be here soon wearing those adorable outfits (they are SO small!)--now we just need to set up the crib.

Baby is getting quite big in there!  It is really moving now and does some serious shifting--I know I am going to miss these times feeling baby move in there--so I 
ponder on the moments thinking what baby is doing in there, and what it looks like--and hope it is having fun!  

It was so nice to be home though.  I hadn't been home since August.  My Mom and I got to spend a lot of quality time together, looking through my baby book, and comparing how I look now to how my mom looked pregnant wih me!  The next time I see her will more than likely be when baby is here!  I also learned the basics of knitting from a very patient teacher--thank you Laura!

It is hard to belive that Christmas is just around the corner--March will be here before we know it!
