My shower was really good. Lots of people there, lots of gifts. Mady got a LOT of stuff. I posted about it on my blog, it was a lot of fun.
My sister didn't show up, texted me that morning to tell me she wasn't attending. We haven't talked since. That put a damper on things in the beginning of the day, but, I refuse to let her bother my happy time.
Got lots of clothes, kind of upset though because no one gave gift receipts for clothes....yet no one really thought about sizes. The warm clothing people bought are sizes that she'll likely be wearing in the mid summer. Yikes. ETA: I guess that sounds ungrateful. I'm definitely thankful and it's the thought that counts. She did get some really cute clothing, even if we can't make the sizing work. She even got a pair of pink gym shoes. We'll have to wait until she's older to wear them, but, they're SO cute!
All in all though, Mady is so spoiled already, I can't even believe it!!
Thanks for asking!

We had this same problem. You don't sound ungrateful, if anything I'm sure it just makes you feel bad that people spent money on stuff she will never get to wear. Reese has some 3-6 month outfits that are adorable, but they are sleeveless with little bloomer bottoms. Not real practical for oct-Jan. So, unfortunately, they will not get worn, & it stinks! That sucks about your sister. I'm glad you didn't let it ruin your day!
