April showers bring May babies???

Well I survived yesterday!!! After all the planning we had my baby shower yesterday and it was just wonderful! We had a few small glitches but otherwise everything went very smoothly and I had a wonderful time. We had a gorgeous day for the shower and we had a TON of food and lots of people came and I have to say I was INCREDIBLY blessed by everyone coming and showing their love and support and for the extreme generosity everyone showed! Today I was soooooo sore and tired it was ridiculous! After relaxing, a nap, dinner and desert I am feeling quite a bit better....until I look at all the stuff I have to put away....!!!
It was very overwhelming yesterday- I think I was overtired to begin with- then it was just so much seeing everything...So if I seemed off to anyone I apologize! I know there were some people I did not get a chance to really talk to and I feel bad about that! I am so blessed by everyone and am very thankful to be surrounded by so many loving people!

Here are some pictures from the shower-

The Hall...


the food- which there was a TON of and it was so yummy! Thank you to everyone who helped out!



Here I am with my wonderful Sister-in-law and my 5 week old Niece and my friend Ahava...



Here is everyone playing a game where you have to put a paper plate on your head and draw what you think the baby will look like- the winning one accidentally got thrown away but it was pretty funny!!!



Here I am opening a few of MANY gifts!





Here is my gift from my mom- a really pretty statue of a mom holding her baby- among many other gifts but the neatest was the blanket- It was made by my Great Grandmother and my mom used it for me when I was a baby...



and my friends from high school loving on the baby!!



and of course a picture of one of the cutest little men in the world- My nephew Hunter playing with a giant bumble bee his great-Aunt Kathy gave him!



And a picture of all my loot!




And a thank you to everyone who bought us diapers! I did a count and we ended up with about 800 diapers!!!!! So we should be set for the first week or two! ha ha ha!!! Again I cannot thank everyone enough for how generous and loving you are! I cannot wait until this baby makes his or her grand debut and I get to show you all!!!

Well I am tired again so I am going to bed...yes it is only 9:30- I am getting my rest while it is still possible! Good night!
