Let's see if this works...the link above is to the Kodak Gallery slide show of a few of the photos from the baby shower given to me last weekend by our good friends Bianca and her mom Martha. If you haven't seen them already, take a peek. It just so happened to fall on my birthday, so we celebrated a little of both.
I was lucky to have my mom fly in for the occasion from California. We were concerned that she wasn't going to get in due to Tropical Storm Fay (it was ironic that my mom's last name is Fay). But she braved the storm and safely landed in Orlando during the worst of it last Thursday. It was a quick trip for her though it was totally worth every minute! I only wish we could see each other more often. I look forward when she comes to visit when the baby is born!!
So while we are on the subject of showers, I was definitely "showered" with lots of wonderful gifts. Now the challenge is finding a place to fit it in our place. K is finally realizing that this little child growing in my belly is actually going to take up space in the real world. All of the sudden he is interested in getting furniture and a crib for the baby-space (not exactly a whole room has been dedicated for the little one :). ) This way the stuff has a place. I hope we take advantage of the Labor Day weekend to get things a little more organized. Once it is presentable, I'll post a few photos so you can get a visual of what I mean by baby-space. In the mean time, I don't think a photo of a mess would be interesting. Anyway, maybe I should get a head start and work a little bit on it now....
