I am so blessed to have so many wonderful friends. Despite my crazy hectic schedule with moving and Grant & Carrie's wedding, etc., Nikki and Meg still wanted to throw a baby shower for me and Connor. The event took place on Sunday at 
Nikki's beautiful home. The timing was especially nice because not only was I able to see old friends, but many of the women in my family (all the way from Texas) were able to come because they were already in town for the wedding.
All the food and presentation was outstanding. Nikki and Meg thought of everything! We played 2 baby shower games: one was a word scramble and my cousin-in-law, Annette won big time! Hopefully my ability to descramble words like "pacifier" is not an indicator of my mothering ability! Everyone also guessed how big around I was at 28.5 weeks. As usual, most of my "friends" thought I was huge! :) 
Elisa came in a very close second to my Granny, who was within a centimeter of complete accuracy! I've never seen anyone come so close! Then there was my dear mother....she was a good 11-12 inches short....God bless her! :)
Connor is well on his way to being completely set. He got lots of adorable clothes, a Bumbo and tray, crib sheets, blankets, baby monitors, etc. etc. Everyone was beyond generous. Of course the greatest gift that anyone could give was just their presence at the shower itself. After living away for so many years, you guys have no idea how much it means to me to know that I still have so many close girl friends that I can count on for anything. Although this baby will be born in Ohio, I can already feel a loving embrace all the way from Georgia.
Love you guys...thanks again!(You'll get your thank you notes soon....writing is a little tough right now with my gimp wrist...)
