Baby Shower on 11.11.11

Colleen and Steph threw me a baby shower on Friday night! There were 8 of us, and it was really fun and nice. We didn't take a picture of us all together, though - darn! Mom and Ginny even weighed in and sent lovely gifts beforehand telling me to wait until the shower. (They mentioned skyping throughout the shower, but they went camping out in the woods with no skype possibilities.) It's pretty convenient having a couple of young moms give advice and sworn-by gifts. Pea ended up with a stroller and a bassinet sent with love from Texas, as well as onesies, hats, mittens, socks, slippers, a blanket, a bathtub and towels, a stuffed ducky, swaddle/nursing blankets, a portable diaper changer and wipes, and a pumping kit for those few weeks back at work before summer. Pea's first Dr. Seuss book, Green Eggs & Ham, was given by 4-yr. old Gianna, too =).

I am very thankful for all of the help, support - in both a moral and "stuff" sense! It seems to make Pea's birth somehow more imminent ... that I won't just stay pregnant!

Here's a shot of the hostesses with me & Pea:
