Fun Saturday!







Tonight was a lot of fun. Lots of family is in town because of Jane's baby blessing tomorrow. We had a really fun day today, including a visit to the new OC Tanner jewelry store in Salt Lake City. Too bad the thing I picked out was more than a downpayment on a house! I was also able to get some temple names printed from the Family History library, so that was cool. We had lunch at the Lion House. Later, Sarah, Mykle, Joe, and Pop came over and we all had dinner together. It was really fun. Danny and I are always saying how we wish that every day was the weekend. We think that's what heaven is going to be: Saturday. (I actually figured that out when I was very little, but it had a lot more to do with cartoons).



My hot husband!



Isn't Jane adorable?


The new OC Tanner building. It's really beautiful inside.

Cute sock monkey nephews (and the sock monkey doll my mom made!)


"Say 'Macaroni and Cheese'!" (one of the only foods this one will eat!)


And this one is starting to talk! Tonight he said, "Bob the builder!" perfectly and surprised us all!


Auntie Ella!


Dan and his iPhone. I used my camera, he used his phone.

And now...I'm going to sleep.

Baby Shower take II

I wish that I had brought my camera, or that I had pictures. I was waiting to post about this because I wanted to put some photos up, but I'd rather post about it now.

My sisters and mother in law threw me a second baby shower here in Utah. Again, I hate the word "perfect" because it's too stressful, but again, I would have to use it to describe the party. There was as chocolate fountain and yummy ravioli. It was in Becky's "club house". It was funny because she lives in condos that really do have a club house next to the pool, but I just assumed that she meant her condo when she wrote "club house" on the invite. I thought, well that's a little funny to call your house a "club house" but okay...

Everybody was so nice and generous. Unlike the shower at home, where everything was clothes and giftcards, most every gift given was something that I would have had NO way to transport back from Massachusetts, but that I still will need. Like bubble bath (which I have used...twice...even though it's supposedly for the baby), or a diaper trash can, or a mesh baby bath chair. I am really grateful to have in-laws and friends who care about me and support me in having a baby. It was really, really, really nice.

And fun! We had a pinata, which we all had to hit! Inside were chocolates and baby things, like spoons and tylonol and outlet covers. It was way, way fun. We used a cute, frilly baby diaper-cover as the blindfold. Ahhh I wish I had pictures.

Thank you to everyone who helped make that night so fun! I had an awesome time!
