VA Baby Shower was Great!

What a wonderful weekend!! Jess put together a great shower and I even had a surprise visit from my mom and sister! We had a great spread with tons of food and drinks... chocolate cupcakes to boot! The games were fun - found out I'm 42" round, after about half the party (including my mother in law and sister) guessed closer to 80" with the ribbon game :) Amy Meli rocked everyone in the "name baby related items" game with over 40 items in 4 minutes... I had about 14 - think that means I'm in for a surprise, with how much we need?! All the gifts were perfect - useful, soft and blue, green or yellow... putting them away for baby was even fun!

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who attended and contributed to the party. There were plenty of east coasters we missed but we LOVED hearing from you guys too! Grandma and Grandpa Tunila (my parents) got us the crib so baby's room is officially a nursery and looks AMAZING... I keep walking in and just looking around smiling. Grandma and Grandpa Grant (Mike's parents gave us funds for baby as well - we've earmarked it for another big purchase and are just waiting on the next shower to see what it'll be :)

Next week we're off to Cali for the family baby shower - one spoiled baby that's for sure!
