My Frist Bab(ies) Shower!!!!!

This past Saturday, I had my first beautiful shower in Dover, DE with my mom's side of the family. My best friend, Kim and my sister, Christine drove with me early Saturday morning to get up there in time since my Mom and Dad went on Friday night and Tim had to work on Saturday and couldn't make it.

I couldn't sleep the whole night before because I was so excited and well, I don't sleep much anyway so that was not really so surprising.

We dropped off my sister at my Grandma's and then Kim and I went back to the hotel to rest until the shower and change our clothes. Finally around 12:30pm, I called and begged my sister to let me come!

I walked in and everything was so beautiful (even all in pink) My grandma does such a great job hosting elegant parties and this was no exception. I am so thankful it was so beautiful. We had appetizers and talked to everyone coming in, which was so nice. We played some games and I got started opening gifts. (We were having a huge family dinner at the end of the shower with the whole family.)

My mommy and my sister!

The gifts were amazing, unbelievable, overwhelming...I couldn't stop smiling! We got LOTS and LOT and LOTS of clothes and socks! Oh my gosh, I think the girls have about 30 outfits a piece already! We have a lot of dressing up to do and lots of pictures to take already! The little socks are so sweet. We also got some blankets that were Pooh, which I love! My mom and my sister just gave me a small gift at this shower, which were beautiful lilac and white polka-dot crib sheets from Pottery Barn.

Off of our registry, we got the Pack-n-play, the soothing spa baby tub, a boppy with cover and the bottle rack.

My Aunt Carole (mom's sister) made me (the girl's) BEAUTIFUL baskets full of things! She made them each a blanket with a poem and a bottle holder...oh my gosh I was literally in tears! (see photos above)

I was saying..."it smells like babies!!!!"

The clothes were ENDLESS!!!!

LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of diapers and wipes...so thankful!

We then had dinner, homemade lasagna and sides! SO yummy, made by my Grandma! And then it was cake time and I almost fainted when I saw the cake! It was specially made and made so beautiful! And to mention it was soooo good! I have been eating it all week!
