Baby Shower #2

Yesterday was our second baby shower, held at our home church, Creedmoor Rd. There was a great turn-out! Everyone had been telling me for weeks how excited they were about this shower (especially all the older ladies-- there hasn't been a new baby in our church in a couple years). My mom got to come down & my brother & sister-in-law made it, also. We had great food and fellowship, and we were definately showered with gifts! This time people did much better with buying off the registry and I'd say 75% of the items we got were off our registries. I really feel much more prepared for this baby now & we only need a few more things, but really she could come any day and she'd be just fine.

We got one big gift that about 10 or so of the older ladies all pitched in together to get, and that was our travel system-- the stroller/ car seat/ carrier combo. Though I still think it is huge and will take up most of my trunk, I'm really excited about it. My sister-in-law Chela has taken a class in installing infant car seats and so she helped us install that one and the other one we got from the Pregnancy Center. I rode around a little while yesterday with the actual seat in place in my car, and oh how much more real that made it seem. Soon we will have a living breathing human being in that seat!
