Baby Shower

It’s been hard to find time to write lately. I’m trying to organize our new school schedule, Aaron leaves again for Thailand tomorrow, we finally finished all the unpacking, we had a baby shower, oh yeah, and I have a newborn. Though, truthfully, he is the most chill baby ever. I just put him down on the bed a while ago, because I needed to go to the bathroom, and then I wandered off and got busy and literally forgot about him lying there in the bedroom. He didn’t make a sound. When I remembered he was in there I thought he must have surely fallen asleep, but no, he was just looking around at stuff, wide awake. So I left him there a while longer and got stuff done.

Anyway, my fabulous friend Shannon organized other fabulous friends and family to help out and throw a baby shower last weekend. Here are some photos. And you sort of get  to see our new house in it as well. (There dad, yah happy? I tell you, once your parents find out about your blog they get so demanding, especially if they live in another country and don’t see the grandkids very often. I keep telling him about facebook, pretty much everyone else is better at posting current pictures of my kids than I am there too.)

But I digress. Here are photos.

The lovely Shannon

my mil’s floral arrangement ideas.

Some of the fab food.

Milly also thought up using the potty as a place for the diaper fund.

I had lots of help opening presents.

lots and lots of help.

The piano became a temporary art station for writing favorite songs to sing to kids to add to the song book as a surprise for me.

more fun decorations

Post party-the guys hang out

gratuitous sweetness

Did I mention that 2 days prior my Milly and a team of people showed up to help with the last of the unpacking and get my house in order? I feel so loved.
