So during the last two plus weeks we have felt an out pouring of love and service from those around us. We have amazing friends and family. To top it ALL off our "Crest Wood 5" gang decided to throw us a baby shower. My "other" mother, my best friend growing up step mom was in town! It was so special. All of our friends and family totally spoiled us. Our little guy now has winter clothes and diapers/ wipes for the first month of life. Many don't know but my maternity leave is unpaid, BIG bummer! So this was truly needed and I couldn't stop crying when I realized we really had everything we needed now. Through all of your service and sacrifice you have answered our prayers...thank you all SO much. I think the only one really ready is MaKynzee...
Hippo has become a her baby and she says she knows how to be a mommy now.
We love her.
I told her the baby can't eat with a spoon for a while so she has switched to the bottle, LOL.
Baby Shower: Friday Oct 15
The Lady in Charge, our good friend Katie...thanks lady!
Thanks to the ladies in charge behind the scenes too...Alicia, my sis Christina and everyone else who pitched in.
My wonderful guests/ support team...
We got to see our friend Megan (far right) for the first time in years! Thanks for traveling!
More support...
I love these ladies SO much.
My other "guest pictures" didn't turn out...something about covered faces.

This is a special cake because it was made by Kay and Alicia. They are really good!
Opening presents and chatting...
It was such a blast and so much love. Truly I am very blessed and spoiled by all these women. THANK YOU!!

You're just big enough to be TOTALLY cute! I'm glad that baby stuck around inside for a few more weeks, just one more evidence that prayers work.
Ok so I didn't really help with the cake at all. I only mentioned that I thought a bib would be cute other than that kay made it bc i was cutting up food!
