I had my baby shower on December 4th during a quick trip to Seattle. It was small and sweet. It felt so good to be surrounded by my closest friends and some of your Cody's family. My two friends Jill, Katje & I started out the day by watching an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie called "Junior" where a Arnold gets pregnant somehow and has a baby. (If anyone knows anything about the man I'm married to, you'll understand why I thought the pregnant Arnold movie would be most appropriate. Cody probably has every Arnold movie memorized and can impersonate Mr. Schwarzenegger better than the Terminator himself. I still think it's totally hilarious every time he does it.) Once everyone else arrived we munched on butterbeer cupcakes and fruit skewers and hot chocolate while I opened gifts and read cards. We got so many cute little outfits and toys. People were so thoughtful with the gifts they'd picked out. The coolest part of the shower was the onesie decorating. We all made at least two onesies each and they all turned out so cute! I can not wait to try them on my little guy. Definitely never getting rid of any of them.
I had such a good time & it was so good seeing everyone! Makes me so excited to move back up north in a couple of years. I am really lucky to have such awesome people in my life.
Here are the pictures taken by Jill's momma! Thank goodness she remembered a camera, because my pregnant brain forgot my camera's charger, so all I had was my iPhone! :(
Hostess Jill, me & Katje who drove up from Portland just to hang out for the day!
We're so lucky to have Jill watching over us.
Warning: If you pretend to burp a stuffed animal at a baby shower, people WILL make you keep doing it for a dozen pictures.
I think I'll put this on baby in the hospital. So cute & Tiny! Thanks Nancy (aka Lily's mom! Haha)
It fits!
Giana was kind enough to try out each new toy :) She approves.
Katje thinks I'm hilarious.
Cody's grandpa's card was so sweet, I almost started crying like a wee baby.
I miss these guys!!
My NC buddy, Katje! Love her!
Our onesie creations!! I love them!!
Can't wait to use these!
Grandma Shell & I!
