The Baby Shower


Hello Ladies, Two weeks ago I had my baby shower and... IT WAS GREAT! I could not believe how many people showed up as well as how many gifts I received. I was able to get plenty of big ticket items. This kid came off very well... crib, stroller, 3 bouncers, bassinet and one of my favorites, the Glider my co-workers purchased for me. That was a big surprise. I really don't expect to buy much more. Amazing.

The theme for the baby shower was "A Star Is Born!" -A Night at the Movies. Again, Chanelle thanks so much for all of your help and patience. The whole design of the space was as if we were at the movies. Food: hotdogs, popcorn, buffalo wings, nachos and cheese, etc. My boyfriend and I sat on director's chairs in front of a movie screen. We also had clapboards and awards as decorations. It turned out so well. I was overjoyed. This event meant a lot to me. Janna, thanks for the cigars, those went over well with the men there.

For those who have babies on the way or will in the future: this is the time to have all of your family and friends in one place and to really see the beauty of pregnancy. You'll go through so much before and even after this day but its the one day when you can focus on yourself and really enjoy all the attention you'll receive. Don't worry about being over the top... its expected. And don't feel you have to apologize for your request... its expected. Oh, and if you can delegate and don't answer your phone that day.
