Baby Shower!

On Thursday, May 7, I had my first baby shower! It was at school with all my friends from work. There are four of us preggo so they had a big joint shower for us! It was so much fun! I am so lucky to work with such a wonderful group of people!

Of the four of us, I am the last one in line and we are all due within two months of each other. Dara, another second grade teacher that I team teach with, is due June 14. She is having a surprise, but we THINK it is a girl! Sara, the ESOL teacher, is due July 25 and she is having a boy. Kim, the music teacher, is due July 4 and she is having a girl. Then there's me, due August 18, with a boy!

Here's a picture of the four of us in our "throne" chairs :)


Whenever we have parties or meetings, etc. at school they usually take place in the library. So that is where we had our baby shower. It is in the library of RVES. :)





It smelled like a florist in there because of all the pretty fresh flower arrangements! (and check out those fancy chocolate covered potato chips!)




Mom/Nana came to celebrate with us!

We played a game with "clickers"... it was a trivia game about the four of us...


CAKE! (such a good cake-- my favorite chocolate cake with a lot of icing!!!)

one of the third grade teachers is making Jayden a quilt!


Jayden got a lot of toys and rattles!


how cute... little bibs!


look ath all these gifts... we are so lucky!


I can't believe how perfect everything was. The hospitality team did such a great job putting this shower together. I did not get pictures of the prediction charts or favors, but they thought of everything! Every detail was really nice. Jayden is so lucky to have gotten so many nice gifts- toys, clothes, towels, and lots of other things!!! And we got very generous gift cards to Target, which we are very thankful for. We have started a diaper fund of gift cards! :) Thank you everyone!
