Shower me with memories

I was thinking the other day about how I'm a bad mom & didn't keep up with Jake's baby book, but then I consoled myself when I realized that I pretty much put every milestone in this blog. Eventually, maybe I'll print it out or do something else with it so that we/he has something. I flipped back through a lot of old posts and I think I covered everything, including his birth story/pics of the nursery/etc..., but I never posted anything about my wonderful baby showers.

So Jake, here are some pictures of the 2 baby showers that were thrown for us....one by your Nana and the other by Aunt Missa and GG. Both showers were wonderful.... we are so lucky to have such generous friends & family!

Shower #1:

The pretty tables all set up....


With my sister-in-law, Amy....


And with my mother-in-law, Sally....


And after the shower, exhausted and surrounded by all of the new clothes :)


Shower #2:
Please note that in the 2 week time span between these 2 showers, my face blew up like a balloon as my blood pressure started to soar....I remember being worried for my 2nd shower that I wouldn't be able to cram my feet into the shoes I had planned on wearing. The horror!! what would I have done??? Moral of the story, don't be frightened by my red, puffy face as you look at the pics....

The set up....


With my mama....


With the BFF....


Opening up my awesome diaper cake gift from my super creative friend, Lisa (complete with a stuffed lion wearing an "Oakland Zoo" tshirt!)


And with the best and most loving daddy ever....
