Boy, babies - for such small creatures - sure require a whole lot of stuff! I started panicking in the first aid aisle and didn't really recover until I returned the "zapper gun" to the registry clerk. If you'd like to check out my lists and see how I fared (all comments/suggestions welcome!), you can find us at Babies R Us and Buy Buy Baby. Thankfully that's over ... now onto the fun stuff - The Shower!
Mom has organized a wonderful baby shower for this weekend, August 1st. It'll be a "tea-themed" lunch at the Townsend Hotel in Birmingham, MI. The menu includes all things "frou frou", including finger sandwiches, dainty salads, hot appetizers and scones. And tea, of course! She has even been working on cute games to play that hopefully won't be too terribly cheesy. (wink)
A huge thank you to Aunt Cory, Sara and Auntie Anna for their wonderful gifts (and for being so kind as to ship them to VA!). Thanks and hugs to Auntie Anna for the diaper genie and insert refills. Our noses thank you! Our first gift - a pack 'n play with bassinet and umbrella - was a GREAT surprise recommended by a super-savvy new mommy (counsin Sara), and with her eye for design, it's no surprise that it'll match the nursery perfectly (black & cream damask print). Signing off for now. Promise to post pics from the shower soon.
Gina, Ringo and "Baby L"
