i could get used to this...

At this point, I think it's safe to say that I'm baby-shower spoiled. We have had two more showers since my last post. We are overwhelmed at the number of people who have "showered" us with love and goodies for Baby Eli. For those of you who are reading this, we cannot thank you enough! I am posting pics from our shower in Cherryville and from the one at my work.

This past Thursday, we picked up Eli's bedding and furniture, so the nursery is really starting to take shape. We have a whole closet stuffed full of diapers and wipes! What a blessing! I will post updated pics of the nursery soon...

mcadenville wesleyan shower...

We had another shower this weekend that was given to us by our church family at McAdenville Wesleyan. It was a really nice way to spend a dreary and rainy Sunday afternoon. Since day one of coming to the church, we have felt loved and welcomed there. We are so thankful for the many, many prayers that have gone up for Baby Eli from our church family. We need those much more than anything that we could receive at a shower. A few of our neighborhood friends also came up for the shower, which made it even better...

pwc shower...


"diapers and pins...the fun begins"
After work today, I headed to Charlotte for a baby shower that Jesse's co-workers were throwing for us. I was pleasantly surprised by how much effort they had put into making it a special afternoon. They had decorated, gotten a really yummy cake, and purchased a ton of gifts for Baby Eli. It was not only nice to be "showered" but also to meet some of his co-workers that I hadn't met before. Needless to say, it was a very good start to our weekend. I feel so blessed to have so many people who want to share in this special time....
