Baby Shower!!








I'll start out by saying I don't have a lot of pictures yet, but I plan on getting them. On Saturday, June 6th, I was given a baby shower. It turned out great! I got to see great friends that I had not seen in too long, and it was wonderful seeing them. Also a lot of family came, Alex's mom, aunts and a couple of his sisters came from Utah, and it was fun to have them there! We had a game that Ryan put together that was a lot of fun! She had me and Mandy Davenport playing against each other since we are both pregnant. Two people would hold a string (two for her and two for me), we would be holding a baby (sack of flour), a cell phone, which we would hold an active conversation on, and while having and holding those things, we had to hang clothes on the clothes line, during a specific time period. Well Mandy smoked me, I didn't do too well, but we all sure did enjoy ourselves!! We talked a lot, and we ate a lot!! Then it was time for the gifts, and I'll tell you that McKelle sure did get spoiled. We got a lot of the cutest clothes that I can not wait to see her in! Peggy and Mandy made an adorable diaper cake, its a gift that I will have a hard time taking apart, its amazing! Mandy also got us the matching bouncer that goes with the traveling system, swing, diaper bag, and crib set, that we had already received. We got a lot of beautiful blankets, some hand made and beautiful. Also Ryan got her a swaddling blanket, which is smething that I very much wanted, and also an outfit, that I plan on taking with us to the hospital. There were many many more gifts, and every single one of them are perfect, and very much appreciated!! Thank you all so much for everything. I missed the ones I know that wanted to be there but had no way to be able to make it, but know that I thought of you! Love you all.
