Baby Shower

My friends from church threw me the best baby shower for Andrew! We planned it so the shower would be a few weeks after Andrew's birth so he could enjoy the special occasion with us - and so my Mom could partake in the fun while she was in town visiting her newest grand baby. The food was awesome, the gifts were appreciated and needed (1st BOY!) and the company of my friends was a reprieve from the long stresses of the week (John leaving for OCS). I thought it would also be fun to bring along Aubrey and Jocelyn so they could have a night out with their mom and grandma. Both seemed to enjoy themselves. There was a point where I didn't know where Aubrey escaped to - until a blessing was being said for the food. Music pouring out of a piano in the basement was a dead giveaway!! LOL She loves to play the piano and anytime there's one nearby she's on it in a heartbeat. Many thanks again to my friend Heather for taking a lot of the photos from my shower! Not everyone at the party is pictured below but I was so happy to have my friends there to celebrate with me. I had so much fun. It was a great night! :)
