The baby shower yesterday was great. We had lots of great food:
And I ate plenty of it:
We played some games, and then I opened lots of generous loot:
I'm sure Norah will appreciate everything too:
And when I got home, Jerry helped carry it all in and then we both sorted through it all. Scooter wanted to assist, but he mostly wanted to play with the stuffed aimals because he thought they were for him (we may have small issues with training him to separate the baby's toys from his toys).
After the shower, I was tuckered out. Who knew that opening gifts could exhaust a girl? So, Jerry and I went out to a really nice dinner and then went to the bookstore (because we are nerds and that's where we like to spend our Saturday night). We picked up a few new reads, as well as some cheesecake, and then came home, read, ate our dessert, and went to bed. It was really a nice evening.

Sounds like a great Saturday! Looks like you got a lot of nice gifts!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Looks like you got some great baby loot. You look adorable BTW.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice time, you look so cute in your purple dress!
ReplyDeleteAnd today's lesson is that it is not necessary to give Jess if you are concerned about wearing her out. Noted!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got so much good stuff.
Man, what a haul. Looks like a great party. Glad you had a good time. Next one is scheduled for Saturday, May 23rd. Invitations will be in the mail Monday.
ReplyDeleteLooks like an awesome haul!! I'm not sure if I mentioned this but I love the name Norah so much...great pick :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got a ton of loot. Good for you. My hubby and I love to go to the bookstore too. We call them 'dates'.
ReplyDeleteI still feel bad for Wrigley. She knows Brookes toys arent hers, but stares at them with longing. And when we get Brooke a new one...Wrigley comes running. She always hopes its for her, but it never is. Poor dog...I really should go out and get her a few new toys ;)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got some great stuff.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to know another couple goes to the bookstore. We love to do that.
We are bookstore bores as well. I love it. Though, we write down titles and buy them off Half.com because we are cheap like that. :)
ReplyDeleteShower looks like it was fun! Cute outfit!
Great stuff. I'm so glad that I never have to go to any of these "shower things". Soon you will have your hands full, so enjoy some alone time while you can.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful day. Look at all those gifts!
ReplyDeleteJerry is looking really slim, btw! Is he still losing weight?
Mmm, books and cheesecake, does life get any better?
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a such a nice day, gifts, food, books and dessert. Perfecto!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwhhhhh yeah! Showers are always fun! You look super cute!! ;D ;D
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fab time and loads of loot to boot! :)
ReplyDeleteLoot = nice evening :-)
ReplyDeleteGee Jerry is looking so thin. I haven't seen him for a while.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Norah made a HAUL at the shower. And the best part...more to come! Yeah!
Looks like a great time! Nice loot! ;o)
ReplyDeleteThat's so fun! I'm glad you had a good shower and got lots of loot. I love bookstores too. What books did you get?
ReplyDeleteSo that's what happens at these shindigs! Even with two kids I missed both of them...or at least I was told to go out!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a blast anyway and I will be updating you on the spaghetti w/pecans!
Looks like a really nice shower! :>)
