My Mom and MIL threw my baby shower this weekend and I had a blast. It was so wonderful to connect with the women in my family and DH's. Everything was awesome, food was great and I had sooo much fun! People were awesome with the gifts too...homemade blankets and quilts, homemade cloth books, and tons of "needed" items. Not too much clothes, and most in larger sizes since we don't need a ton of 0-6 month. After being on bedrest since 14wks, this was a much needed break. I sat and chilled most of the time, only getting up for pics. And I loved my new outfit that DH got me for the shower. It was really comfy!
We had a crazy ride home afterwards....16 contractions in the 1 1/2 hour trip. DH raced home, got me flat in bed and after 3 more they chilled out, Thank God! I have a doc appt on Thursday and I'm worried she'll put me on strict bedrest, but wouldn't trade the shower for the world!
Sorry to ramble...just still so happy to have gotten out of the house to celebrate Olivia! Here's some pics:
