Overwhelming Gratitude

I cannot believe that the baby shower was yesterday. We are so grateful to everyone that came. We are thankful to everyone that helped out with the shower in any way!

My Aunt Jenny basically threw the shower and my mom and Aunt Karen helped put it together too. I am so not a fan of getting up in front of everyone like that and have people stare at me while I open gifts from people. I am getting to the uncomfortable stage of the pregnancy where I feel like my skin cannot expand any further. I appreciate Greg getting up there with me and being just as embarassed as I was to sit there for a couple hours and do that!

It was wonderful to see everyone in one place. I wanted to just sit and visit with everyone all afternoon, but alas, I had to eat lunch and sit with Greg and open gifts!

We got so many wonderful things that I know we will need. Bathtub, sheets, blankets, a TON of books, clothes, diapers... If they make, we got it.

There is no way that we could have ever afforded to buy all of the necessities ourselves. We hope everyone had fun visiting and playing games and eating WONDERFUL food that my family all prepared. We are blessed to have all of you in our lives to celebrate the arrival of our little one.
