Today I pulled off my very first (and only) baby shower. My sis-in-law (and dear friend) Stacey, is due to deliver baby Gracey very soon. Just like me, Stacey was blessed with 3 awesome little boys. We share much in common with the many things we do with our boys. It's always been neat to be out with our 6 boys and just Stacey and I. People always ask if they are ALL ours. We always said that if we had girls we'd do this or that. One day long ago I promised that if she would ever have a girl I would have her a shower. Knowing me well, she knew this was a big deal because baby showers are not my cup of tea. I begged her not to have me a big shower for Lucy (she followed my wishes and gave me a small private shower, which was perfect.) Today was her turn and I have to say that I quite enjoyed myself.
I can't wait to meet my newest niece. We'll share many baked cookies, paint tiny toenails, do arts and crafts, and hang out the way only an Auntie and a sweet little niece can do. I can't wait to see her dressed in pink and wearing sweet ribbons in her hair (if ultrasounds are true - she already has lots of hair...here's hoping) I'm so looking forward to shopping trips with "the girls" on our hips. Lots of good memories are to come!
She's "alittle" excited about all the girly stuff.

She was just GLOWING yesterday! I have seen her happy before but the GLOW was just overpowering her entire face.
Thanks Tina you did an AWESOME job getting it all together!
Stacey, I can't wait to hold baby Gracey either.
