Showered Full of Love. And baby clothes. Lots and lots of baby clothes :)

Yikes. Where do the weeks go?? I meant to write this last Sunday night! Well, better late than never right? Last Sunday, my mother threw us a very beautiful baby shower and we are so so thankful for it! I can't believe it was last Sunday already because I remember three months ago when we discussing dates and now it's here and gone! It was a beautiful day (ok no it wasn't -- it started hot, got hotter and more humid, and of course, rained all afternoon, oh Chicago weather, you are killing us!) BUT it was a beautiful shower and everything was perfect.  As I stood at Murhpy's Irish Bistro I couldn't help but think "holy crap, its like we were just here for our wedding shower and that was almost exactly four years ago!"  It's insane how fast time is flying and we don't even have our speedily growing babe in front of us yet! :(


Anywho, I want to thank everyone that came, everyone for all the wonderful gifts (our little guy is so lucky already!), and everyone who made the day so special for Scott and I.  We got oodles of awesome gifts -- carseat, highchair, swings, toys, bath gear, and tons of *adorable* baby clothes.  Seriously, the boy's dresser is so full already -- but this is a good thing because I like to play dress up and I'm sure I'll want to (and probably will!) change his clothes multiple times a day just so he gets to wear all his cute cute little clothes!! Thank you everyone so much! Here are a few pix from the day!
