Baby shower #1







I finally had a baby shower this last Saturday and it was so nice! I am not a big fan of showers but it was very fun and low key which I like. I am so thankful for people and their kindness and generosity towards my family but I will be so glad to get my next shower over with on Saturday.

My mom and sisters threw my shower for me and my extended family helped with everything. We had soup and bread sticks and yummy cheesecake and mini fruit tarts to eat. My mom had it at her house and it looked so nice! Everyone came and I got so many cute things for the baby. The problem was carrying it in without Kip seeing it but we made it work. I made him hide out in the bedroom while I brought the stuff in.

We also went to dinner with some of my family that night. My mom's birthday is January 1st so she wanted to go eat at Pizza Ria but only after my shower was over. Not everyone could come so it felt a little weird with my parents, 2 of the 3 little brothers, Cass and Noah and myself and Kip but it turned out really fun! My dad was very generous and bought our dinner, thanks Dad!

Jess, I am so sorry I didn't come. Your mom had called me about it on Wednesday and then I didn't put it on my calendar. So I went to an appointment at 12 and then thinking I had all this time, went out to eat with a friend. When I came home, everyone was leaving. I feel sooo bad. I'm glad it was a great time! Can't wait to see you and your baby when the time happens. Love ya!
