Brandon, Barb & Maya too!

Barb had her Baby Shower on Sunday, December 7th and it went great! We had far more friends show up than I would have imagined. Due to Barb now being on bed rest, we had to move the shower from its original location (Wild Wing Plantation's clubhouse) to our home which actually proved to be far more intimate and appreciable.

Everyone was beyond generous with their gifts to us. In fact, the baby will now have a humidifier for every room in the house! (We received three of them). Onesies, bottle warmers, socks, booties, caps, rockers, bouncers -- you name it, someone gave it to us. We can't thank everyone enough for what they did.

The food was outstanding. Darla Domke-Damonte made some amazing pull pork with Sticky Fingers sauces, some Italian meatballs, brownies capped with icing, cole slaw and several other items that slip my mind right now. Basically -- the food was damn good!

My mother was a tremendous help all weekend long, cleaning like crazy on Saturday and Sunday and then spending time with Barb and taking her to the doctor's on Monday. We can't thank her enough for everything she did. I'm not sure any of it would have been possible without her help.

Finally, Kay and Erika were wonderful hostesses. They planned everything out perfectly. They made cute little treats, picked out a great invitation card...they simply did everything as perfect as it could ever possibly have been done.

I'll post pictures of the shower in a little while!
