Baby Shower!

This past weekend was the baby shower for Noah! Jen’s 5 hostesses (one of whom was unable to attend at pretty much the last minute) did such a fabulous job planning one big shower, and made it everything and more that she had ever wanted. It had been scheduled, probably a little earlier than the normal time you give a person a baby shower, but with the holidays coming up, people’s calendars tend to fill up fast! Even though it was still a busy weekend for a lot of people anyways (and a lot of people were sick too – definitely didn’t want to catch their germs!), we still had an awesome turnout, and we sure got blessed with a lot of nice things! We were told on more than one occasion that this shower was the biggest one they had ever attended in their whole life. Yep, we most definitely feel loved. =) But it doesn’t stop there...... the presents STILL keep coming! We went home from church on Sunday with tons of bags of presents, and even to this day, they still keep coming! =) Jen came home from work on Monday with presents, and it has even become fun opening the front door (and the mailbox) and seeing what packages await us that day too. This has been going on for a couple of weeks now, and this is making us VERY excited for Noah’s arrival. =) Our living room looks like a disaster right now too, thanks to a friend of ours who dropped off 2 HUGE garbage sacks, stuffed to capacity, of baby clothes for us . Baby clothes of all sizes, in perfect condition, everywhere. We’re pretty much set for almost the first 2 years. We consider ourselves to be very much blessed and very loved. Have we mentioned that already!? =)

Thank you to everyone who came and for all the wonderful things you brought to help us prepare for Noah. Thank you to everyone else who sent things in your absence. That was so thoughtful and very sweet of you to think of us.

52 more days to go!
