Feeling lucky

Hubby and I are feeling very fortunate right now. We just returned from a wonderful trip to Morganton to celebrate my dad’s birthday and to attend our baby shower for Caleb. I can’t even begin to describe the generosity of all the family and friends who have given presents to our little one on the way. It is obvious that we are very loved and that baby Caleb is going to be as well. He is already one lucky little boy that must realize his good fortune; he has been extremely active the past few days, probably in celebration of all the gifts that came his way.

A very disorganized nursery filled with piles of gifts.

This was one heck of a baby shower thrown by three of my favorite ladies. There was an A-B-C/1-2-3 theme with building blocks and bold colors all about. There were THREE types of cake – all delicious. There were tons of friends and family in attendance, some of whom had driven from hours away, some of whom had flown in from the west coast, and all of whom were greatly appreciated for being there. I can’t say thank you enough.
But now on to my list of my top 5 favorite things about this exquisite baby shower, in no particular order:

1) Spending time with friends and family!

2) Pee-pee teepees. These are meant to cover the little sprayers that baby boys are known to have little control over during diaper changes.

3) Signed copies of baby books from all the shower guests.
We now have a little library already begun.

4) Tons of handcrafted onesies. My sister arranged for all the guests in attendance to iron on machine-washable decals to a variety of different sized Gerber onesies. How original!

5) Did I mention the cake?
