BABY SHOWER!!

Memory: Macie I am writing this post at 3:00 in the morning, you slept so good last night then woke up at 2:00 ate and then got the worst stomach ache you have had yet. It is so hard hearing you cry so hard and loud and not a whole lot I can do about it but rock you, pat your back and snuggle. You have finally calmed down and hopefully your tummy ache has passed and you will fall back asleep soon.

It has been over 7 years since I have had people stare at me while I opened gifts only it was for my bridal shower and yesterday it was for my baby shower. Jen Isackson planned and prepared the shower while Kristi Edwards hosted it at her house. I can't thank Jen enough she did such an amazing job and the decorations, food, and games where fantastic. We played Baby Bingo and I won some lotion, she had the ladies write on a card "Wishes for Macie" and on another card advice for the new mother. We also had an ongoing game throughout the shower where you got two clothespins when you arrived at the party and anytime you said the word Baby and someone heard it they would steal your clothespin and the lady with the most at the end won a prize, Heather Onofrychuk destroyed everybody at the game and walked away with almost everybody's pins. The gifts I got were adorable and am so grateful to all my friends for "SHOWERING" me in wonderful gifts. I got many cute clothes, bath toys, books, teething toys, two amazing diaper cakes, a homemade blanket, and the most beautiful Sunday coat ever from her Aunt Shirley and I can't wait for her to wear it. It was such a wonderful day and so much fun with amazing friends. Lara and Royall you were greatly missed:(
