Shower Time

My wonderful mother threw me the most amazing shower this past weekend. About 30 friends and family members were there to share the day with me. It was the first time that I felt completely pregnant. I was so exhausted and had cankles (when your ankles are the size of your calfs) by the end of the day. Chris and I received so many wonderful gifts and even got a few unexpected ones from friends and family who are out of state (Thanks JB, formal thank you cards to come soon). The day was perfect thanks to my mother’s attention to detail, a wonderful set up crew of my dad and brother, and the bartending abilities of my dear friend Brooke and her mom Donna. Even more important, Chris' mom Grandma Cindy flew all the way from Buffalo, NY to be with us. I am so thankful.

P.S. We decided on a name…Max. It was on the cake and part of the decorations so it has to stick.

P.P.S. Here are a few pictures. I’ll post more when we get them back from the photographer (a friend of my mom).
