Hello everyone! We are only three weeks out from the due date and I just had my fourth and final baby shower this past week. I thought I would give you some highlights from the showers! What a great time it has been seeing so many ladies, both family and friends, to give me encouragement and advice as I enter into motherhood.
Shower #1: Wisconsin Baby Shower
Baby girl's maternal grandmother and great-grandmother hosted a shower at the end of January. Weather was great for traveling so we had a good turnout. It was a day filled with stories, laughter, sharing of maternal wisdom, and great food! And, of course, lots of presents for our baby girl.
Shower #2: CHRP Shower in Valparaiso
The ladies from Church, whom I became friends with while on retreat two years ago and then served with last year in throwing the retreat, held a baby shower for me. It was a wonderful time to catch up with these women and to know how much support I have here, if I need any advice or help with our little one.
Shower #3: Michigan Baby Shower
Eric's family held a shower at their home and although there was some snowy weather, we had a good turnout. It was a great chance to see some of the family and friends on his side that I had not seen since my bridal shower. We returned from that shower with lots of gadgets for baby girl which Eric got right to work on putting together. :)
Shower #4: Work Shower
This past Thursday my co-workers at work threw me a little shower. A great way to celebrate the reason I will be gone for so long and to get some encouragement and advice from the ladies at work. :)
