Baby Showerin’ It Up

I am so blessed to have such great friends and such a giving church family.  Man, did we get showered…  I was so excited to finally get some baby stuff!

Nate and I have been very frugal throughout this whole pregnancy.  I always pictured myself buying cute little girl things as soon as I found out I was pregnant.  That, my friends, was just a thought.  We found out very quickly how we were going to have to save the moolah, so we hadn’t bought anything.  Like nothing.  I was telling everyone that I would feel so much better if I had a carseat and a bottle. ha.  Welp… got those things now and it’s awesome!

Church Shower 015 These great friends really threw us the cutest shower in history.  Everything was so precious… and purple!

Hostesses:  Natalie Reid, Shannon Olson, Kerri Nelson, Katrina Gillham (due in January), Me, Melissa Tennyson (she looks pretty stinking hot to have just had a baby huh?), Hollie Fuller (due in April), and Margaret Oden.  (Lauren Wendt, not pictured)Church Shower 001 Church Shower 002

The decorations were just super cute.  The food had a “Ready to Pop” theme.  Everything was popping ;)  We enjoyed some popcorn, poppyseed muffins, cake pops, fruit pops, and soda pop.

We played a cute little game where I had to guess how Nate answered a few questions.  We did pretty good.  I would say 90% or so…. I know my husband’s brain.

And then it was on to the gifts. I am glad that I made had Nate with me to open all the presents. I was exhausted by just opening the cards. ha

It was a great Sunday afternoon, and I am just so grateful for all the goodies.  Mollie has a ton of clothes now, so I’m hoping for a ton of diapers at the next shower.

I was glad to have my mom and nana come too!  I totally forgot to take a picture with them, so that stinks, but we are having a family shower this Saturday and I won’t forget again.

I’ll end this heavily loaded post with a few more pictures:  live action, me eating, and the three BFFs.
