There were almost 40 people there. It was so nice to be surrounded by all my friends, but I really was disappointed I didn't get to spend more time with each person. I feel like I just got to say HEY, BYE! to everyone!
My best friend Emily was also there! She flew in this weekend just for my shower and a friend's of hers wedding shower. When I was opening my presents my mom and mother in law were sitting with me, Emily was writing everything down, and Megan and Ashley helped with the presents. I had the grandmas and my best friends with me the whole time! That was really special!
The theme was a surprise to me, and it was BUMBLE BEE! How funny is that?! Megan thought it all up and it looked so cute! Ashley's mom Lynn made an AMAZING cake. It was a HUGE bee and hive. And oh my goodness it was so yummy. She also made these bumble bee cookies that were to die for. I want a million more. I didn't get to eat much because I was so busy talking to everyone. The food looked soooo good and I didn't get a chance to have half of it. That was a little disappointing, but I do have a few leftovers in the fridge for later!
I got TONS of stuff, and I really don't need to get much more at all! I got the high chair, swing, bouncy seat thingy, stroller... All I need to get is my pack and play with my gift cards and finish up getting the monster stuff for his nursery! Plus some bottles (just in case) and little things like PANTS. This kid has no pants! I felt kinda funny sitting there and everyone watching me open presents!
As soon as we got home I made Christopher put together the swing and the stroller. I need to take some pictures as soon as I find my camera charger! I will also post some pictures of the shower as soon as my mom and Emily post them on Facebook. I can't WAIT to see them!
Thanks to all my family and friends. This baby is so so so loved and I am so thankful to be his mother! I can't wait to meet him and spoil him with all your goodies!

I'm glad your shower was so great! I have mine this coming Sunday and I can't wait.
Voted for your blog also!
Just thought you should know I'm sitting here reading about your baby shower and crying and giggling interchangeably. Hormones? If not, I'm really crazy.
Glad it was great!
Hi! Found your blog through "Top Baby Blogs". It's very nice to read - I feel like I am re-living my pregnancy in some ways (I have an eight month old daughter). Just became a follower and I'm looking forward to reading more!
