We were lucky enough to have two baby showers. The first one was thrown in Columbia by some of our posse here.
I work with some pretty awesome people. I have been so lucky to make some really wonderful friends in Columbia - friends I was so sad to be leaving when, for a short time, we thought we might be headed to a new city. I'm thankful to have good people around me every day. On April 6th, Matt and I had the pleasure of attending a shower that felt like a happy hour/baby shower thrown by these lovely ladies.

And this lovely lady! Isn't her Weston so darn handsome?
[Here I am with one more hostess: Jayme + her son Weston]
I'm not kidding about the laid back happy hour vibe - just what the doctor ordered for a Friday night baby celebration :-)

The girls went all out and decorated with an elephant theme :-)
They organized a really fun baby trivia game which earned lots o' giggles.
[We put on a good showing, but alas, we didn't win. Our team was comprised of
Matt, me, Liz and Beckie.]
We were showered with tons of books, gifts and a delicious cake with whipped cream icing. The group went in together and bought darn near all of our cloth diaper registry. Score!!
[One of my favorite gifts was from Cara - a homemade quilt in our nursery colors of grey, white and yellow. So soft!]
[The cake. I definitely took the leftovers of that home and definitely had a second piece later that night. I'm not proud.]
Thank you, friends! We had a lovely time and are so thankful for your generosity and support.
