Raining Baby Gifts

Saturday morning I was given my first baby shower. It was held at Susie's house. There were 42 women and 17 children present. Thankfully, Susie has a big open house. It was great to see so many friends and family members. Chad's wife Amber catered the food. It tasted great and there was plenty of it. Mrs. Sybil made a car-shaped cake, chocolate on the inside. Amy made my corsage. It's baby socks twisted into flower shapes. They are so talented. They put together the really cute clear plastic wrapped gifts in the pictures including a diaper cake and a "bucket full of buds" (more baby clothes shaped into flowers). I got lots of clothes, blankets, and books. Amazingly we were able to fit everything into my car to haul it home, including the big car seat. We've unloaded it all and the baby's room is looking really FULL.
