April Showers!

I wanted to give a big THANK YOU to everyone who participated in my baby shower last Saturday! A special thank you goes to my wonderful mother who planned and hosted the event.  She is a fabulous party planner and the best mom a girl could ask for!  Thanks to my sisters and moms for providing all the delicious food!  Thanks to the family and friends who came to visit and were so generous in helping Chris and I prepare to welcome little Olivia to our family.   And thanks to Nikki Jacobson who took these pictures so I could have a few memories! (I always forget my camera!)

Everyone wrote down a small "Joy of Children" for me to read and remember when I'm having a rough day.  These cards will help me remember the small things in life and learn to look for the joys in raising children.

I was also given this pail of diapers.  These were not just plain diapers, however.  No, these had special messages for me to read during those 3:00am diaper changes when all I want to do is sleep.  Some especially hilarious messages were:"Does anybody have a match?" or "Isn't it Daddy's turn?"

THANK YOU!!
