Baby Shower!

Today was my baby shower! Let's start by saying thank god this shower wasn't cancelled because of a snowstorm (like my wedding shower)....although there was quite a bit of snow out there...

It was at the Colony Pub and Restaraunt and everything turned out very nicely. We played a few games, including holding paper plates on top of our heads and drawing pictures of what the baby will look like....I liked Jennette's picture the best ~ a baby with a pitchfork. It just sounds like an offspring of Aaron :) There was a chinese auction, my nieces Jasmine and Mariah did a good job pulling numbers and passing out the gifts. For lunch we had salad, rolls, pasta with sauce, red potatoes and chicken.....oh, and can't forget the cake, very yummy!

I got a lot of nice gifts.... lots of clothes, a pack-n-play, highchair, walker, bouncer, the backpack carrier (that Aaron really really wanted), some bottles, pacifiers, toys, lots of blankets.....I can't wait to use them all :) But my most favoritest present and surprise was having Aunt Maura there! I didn't expect her to come since she was just here for Christmas (she lives in Florida), and I was totally surprised when everyone told me to turn around and look who's here :) I'm glad she got to share my special day with me. She's the best dog-mommy ever!

I couldn't miss Jack's first real party! I'll always be there when you need me!
