Baby Shower!

The reason we were in Virginia was that our dear friends Marie and Melanie were throwing me my first baby shower! Thank you, ladies, from the bottom of my heart! I was so blessed and overwhelmed by so many familiar and loving faces surrounding me. Jason and I are so grateful for all the clothes and goodies we received for our baby girl! Thank you, thank you everyone!
Cute little outfit, one out of many!
My Mimi, Dad's mom, came up from Florida for the shower. It was so nice having her there! Man, I hope I'm that stylish when I'm 82!!!
Some of the gals. Stephanie, you did a great job letting me throw tissue paper at you :)
Oh my! I got two of the most adorable bathing suits for next summer. This one is a little patriotic bikini! Can't you just see a little baby belly sticking out of that! I can't wait!

Dad, Jake, & Jason were playing pool during the shower, they came by later to survey the loot.


Look at all those clothes! After a little exchanging of sizes, I'll be set for a while. It seems like I'll have to change her outfit at least twice a day for her to wear everything!!

Thank you again to everyone who blessed us with provisions for our baby girl. We are so grateful! I love you all and miss you all so much.

hey Katie!! it's getting closer and closer to your little girl coming!! after reading this post i have some advice for you that i have learned in the past 5 weeks:

-if your little girl is under 8 pounds consider getting a few preemie outfits, even newborn sizes were HUGE on her the first 2 weeks!
-0-3 months size is way too big the first few weeks, she is just now starting to outgrow the newborn sizes and she is 9 pounds 11 oz now!!
-oh and expect to change her outfit at least 2-3 times per day between the pooping and spitting up!! (keep at LEAST 2-3 changes of clothes in the diaper bag!)

haha i can't wait to hear all your stories! :)
