Baby Shower

Today was the actual/virtual baby shower, thank you so much for everyone who attended whether it be in person or signed onto the web cam and or called in on the conference call. We had a wonderful time. Lisa was so gracious to hold it at her house and Matt and Chris worked hard to make sure all of the tech support for the web cam and conference call worked and went smoothly.
The whole gang playing shower games.
Opening presents and telling everyone on the conference call at the same time what I was opening


Nikki was very helpful with handing me presents and opening them.


A quilt from my mom

My travel system (car seat and stroller) from San And Grandma Gwen. Raymond was very helpful and quick to get me anything I needed. (in the photo he is opening the box with his scissors)

Fun Surprise

Today we got a call from Babies R Us to come and pick up a gift that was waiting. When we arrived we found this fun gift waiting for us. The only problem was that it didn't say who it was from so we don't know who to thank.
