This Saturday my friend Shelly (and her mom) threw me a baby shower! I wasn't expecting to be having one since I already have a boy. It was such a beautiful party and it was so fun for me to have all my friends together to celebrate the upcoming arrival of our new little son. They had a luncheon & this yummy shaved chocolate, raspberry mousse cake... and the gorgeous flowers (that they sent home with me). Oh, and the gifts were nice too. Warren was born in the middle of the Michigan winter and this baby obviously is NOT. So, I was in need for some summer clothes for the little man. They also presented me with $250 (group gift) in American Express gift cards to help me get a good nursing chair. They totally spoiled me! I am so grateful for their thoughtfulness and feel really blessed to have such wonderful friends here in TX! Here are some of them:
Me with Katie A, one of the YW I get to hang out with. She always has a hug for me.
The hostess': Shelly and Karen Jensen. (I serve with Shelly in YW)
Me (behind the baby outfit) & friends: Kari, Pam & Marilyn....
Sister Ivory and Janelle....
Melanie F, Karen R & baby Jennifer....
Jennifer, Michelle & Lara....
Aunt Julie, Mary and Annette. I didn't get pictures of everyone but am so grateful for all who came!
