Adan's Baby Shower

This past Saturday I was given my baby shower by a couple of friends. They did such an awesome job and I can't thank them enough. We had a great time so I wanted to share a couple of key moments that I will remember.
The first thing is this AWESOME lil' bike that Sister Brownfield made for me. The tires are made out of diapers, held together by a receiving blanket, the seat out of bibs, the handle bars by a receiving blanket and the horn is a Dr. Brown's bottle. How creative is that; I mean, who comes up with this stuff!?! I was so blown away by it that I couldn't stop taking pictures...

The lil' bear is a pull string that plays a lullaby.


He even has his own personalized license plate! AH! I just LOVE it!!!



My wonderful friends and the wonderful food that was made.


One of the funniest games was putting the plate on your head and trying to draw a baby. We had the craziest drawings!



We also played a game where everyone brought a baby picture of themselves and we spread them out and had to guess who was who. It was funny to hear everyone's comments about mine..."Hey, we have this little girl running around at church right now!" and "Wow, that's MiaLuz! You look like Mia, I mean, Mia looks like you!" Yeah, mine was too easy for them.

A wonderful gift that was made by Jamie Burns; she sewed and stuffed the letters A D A N...


Denise Dawson is great at Embroidering to personalize every gift she gives...This is a burp cloth that I will probably never use cuz I think it is just too precious to get dirty. She also wrote Adan's full name out on that teddy blanket I am holding. (Okay, the bow on my head was from the present that I just opened!)

I received soooo- many great gift; clothes, burp cloths and the pampers and wipes that I will need so badly. I wish I could post them all.

The one thing that the Windsor Lake Ward is great at is "multiplying and replenishing". This time last year we had 5 sisters ready to deliver and 2 of them had theirs on the same day. Well, the season is here again and there are 5 of us due within the next 2 months and 2 more due in September! I will be the first and the others follow within weeks of me!
I wanted to take a picture of all 6 pregnant ladies at the shower but some had left before I remembered so here are 4 of us. Isn't that just the craziest thing?!? But I must say it is nice to be able to share the experience with so many of my friends.
Thanks to everyone that came to celebrate this special day with me. I had a wonderful time. Can't wait for next month when we have 2 more babies to celebrate! :)

Oh my gosh so fun! And I love that diaper motorcycle! So COOL! I am now in Seattle awaiting to have this baby. I was told I had to be gone by wk 24 so I had five days notice and packed up a house and got everything into storage as well as packed up my family for the next 3-5 months. After baby is here I have my ankle reconstruction here in Seattle too. Crazy times! Hoping to keep her in as long as I can. Just coming up to 28 wks now. That was their goal and I hope to get a few more but we are taking it a day/week at a time. Already got the steroid shots in case. I will keep you updated. Love you!
