Baby Shower

For all who've been following or care my/our baby shower was on Saturday. It is STILL surreal to me & I even had a moment of 'this isn't real'. Everyone insists I have a baby bump but it's because of the belt right under my boobs. It kinda formed the bump if you made the fabric hug your body like the dress did. I even got a "are you sure it's not twins?". Thanks a lot, as if I didn't feel fat enough. It was fun though & my sister and mom put so much work into it. There was a pretty good turn out of people & definitely of presents. The worst thing at a baby shower is the opening of presents. Goodness Gracious it takes FOREVER & you're bored by the time it's only half over. I mean for the people watching. Welp, if you're me then it pertains to the opening too. I wasn't bored but I knew it was taking forever & I did my best to hurry up towards the end. I got some really great gifts!!! The number 1 was a handmade rocker from Mike's grandpa Russ. It is AMAZING! Even has a seat cushion, not just some hard wooden seat. I kept muttering "wow". I was stunned!!! If the photog would've shot my face you would've seen it. Teary eyes & stunned face. I got lots of clothes, some essentials, an adorable diaper bag, a few felt tied blankets, a baby bullet(oh heck yes), a baby doll for the baby, and I'm sure I'm forgetting lots. I got lots of diapers thanks to a diaper raffle. There was a lot of 'daddy love' items & only 1-2 with 'mommy love'. Meaning 'I Love ......'. Mostly it was daddy stuff. I told Mike that apparently everyone thinks she'll love him more. He replies "well duh!". She will be daddy's girl & he will be wrapped around her little finger! Want to see a few pictures? Here you go!

So, that was my shower. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of stuff but oh well. It was a great day! I still feel like we need SOOOO much stuff. Working on that though. Can't wait til my parents come on Monday/Tuesday & I can start unpacking all her stuff & getting her room more ready for her. It'll be here before you know it.
