I've waited a LONG time to have a baby shower!!! And now I'm gonna
have two!! Thanks to the lovely ladies in my BSF (Bible Study
Fellowship) leaders group, my wonderful mom, and mother-in-law, we will
be showered with love twice.
When
my fellow BSF leaders informed me they were going to throw me a shower I
thought "a few gifts, some punch..." but they really surprised me! I
guess I shouldn't have been surprised though cause they are all so sweet
and generous.
The shower (Dr. Seuss themed!) that my
mom and mother-in-law are giving me isn't until this coming Saturday, so
I'll share pictures from that one later. For now, I'll share pictures
from the lovely shower thrown by my fellow BSF leaders. They really went
all out.
They got me the cutest cake and balloons! Squeaks slept through the whole thing in her wrap.
Loved the decorations!
The balloons floated into our skylight and Squeaks enjoyed looking up at them from her bassinet.
A few days later, and a few days before Squeaks turned one month, our talented friend Becca (same friend who took our adoption "maternity" pictures) came over and took some beautiful pictures of our girl. I'm having a really hard time deciding which ones to frame!
She's
growing so fast and eating like crazy! She officially finished the last
of the milk I pumped and we are now relying completely on donations.
Thank you God for generous mothers!
We
still haven't started cloth diapering but as soon as she gets a little
bigger and needs to be changed a little less often, I'll take the first
stab at it.
I
did find the first down side to the wrap. I kept noticing little bits
of sparkle in her hair but didn't know where they were coming from. Her
head was always sparkly! Then I realized its the makeup bronzer I wear! I
can't help but kiss and snuggle her perfectly round little head when
she's all snugly wrapped on my chest.
She's so pretty. Congratulations! :)
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you.
ReplyDeleteHave you thought about trying to regain your milk supply by putting baby to the breast or pumping again?
