A Baby Shower

Baby girl Cecilia Mae is on her way! Her expected arrival is end of March so the clock is ticking for Kelly and Steve to finish up on their house (they've been in the building process since last summer) just in time to bring home their new baby daughter. So their friends and family all came out for a baby shower to help them fill up the nursery.

The mother-to-be at nearly 34 weeks. Kelly's lucky to be tall - her long torso allows more room and a smaller belly. ;)

Opening gifts. Kelly's cousin made this cow-print sweater and hat set. Perfect for a veterinarian's daughter!

A super cute (& funny) pic of Kelly's little helper, Hannah, throwing away some wrapping paper scraps. She nearly fell in!

Some sassy leopard print booties...

Sophia watches the gift opening in grandma's lap.

Aww... Shame on you grandma! Reading porn to a baby? Hehe. This book is totally G-rated, (okay, maybe PG) but it is soooo funny. If you're looking for a clever baby shower gift, check out this book.

Kelly & I

There were several preggos at Kelly's shower, including her friends Angie (left) at 36 weeks and Susie (right) at 4.5 months. Susie is expecting TRIPLETS this summer! Holy cow!

Sophia, Stella and Mya put everyone in a baby-love mood. :)

This is a good picture of that point I was making in Sophie's 10 month post about how they love to see each other. They were all very touchy, babbly, smiley when Sophie arrived.

My best girlfriends.

Sophie's looking forward to meeting her new cousin Cecilia!

While we were at the shower, the father-to-be (Steve) enjoyed lunch with all the guys at a sports bar for a diaper party. Craig attended the diaper party and my brother Taylor and his girlfriend Amanda came to sit with Will at our house for the afternoon. Thank you Taylor and Amanda!

Amanda and Will played all kinds of things together and apparently exercised their imaginations! When I walked in, Will told me they were baking "tomato cookies" (pretend) and that the Bumbo seat was his new "blue helmet". LOL

Whew! Okay, I think I'm caught up for now. What a busy weekend!
