Baby Shower #1

I had my first of 3 baby showers this weekend. It was here in Virginia for my friends. My mom, step-dad, and little sister Brooke came down for it to help out. We served my mom's homemade chicken salad on croissants, veggies w/ dip, fruit w/ dip, cheese & crackers, Chinese tea cookies my MIL got for me, and cake. There wasn't too many people. We had about 10 all together and DID NOT play any games. I hate going to showers and being forces to play dumb games... BLAHH. They are just not for me.

We went with an owl/orange and green theme taken from the invites I had made.
I got so many wonderful gifts from all my friends here. If I had Noah tomorrow I can honestly say I would be prepared. There are things I would like to have but I have all the bare necessities. I still need my cloth diapers but I'm going to use infant diapers for the first month because I have read the fit is not good on a newborn depending on their size. Don't get me wrong I would still love lots of nice things for Noah but we could get by for a week or so if we absolutely had to.


Dean went to his friend Adams house to watch the Ohio State vs. Miami game but came back under strict orders I wasn't allowed to open the gift from his mom without him present. Because of that, he decided to act goofy in the pictures his mom requested of him opening it. He's a smart butt (trying to stop cussing) but that's why I fell in love with him.

We head home to Ohio on Friday for shower #2 and hopefully going to our old high school's football game.
