Weekend was very busy with family and friends as my sister and moms threw me a baby shower. The moms and Mark's Aunt Susie arrived Thurs night and all the sisters and my Aunt Linda arrived on Friday. Friday night we all went to Nina's basketball game. Wasn't one of her team's finer performances but she had fun playing and seems to improve each game on her defense skill.
Sat was very busy getting ready for the shower. My mom and Mark's mom did a fantastic job of preparing the food and helping me clean up the house. Mark escaped early in the morning to get his apparently very rare black duck stuffed. Took the thing to Clinton, MO to a taxidermist that was recommended to him. Assuming he headed straight to Tanners after that with Rooster.
The shower was so much fun. Thanks to all my friends for the fabulous gifts for the baby. I'm so excited to start on the room now and get it ready. Only 9 more weeks!! We received the bedding for the nursery from my girlfriends and lots of accessories for the room. Also got the diaper keeper and baby sling. Does anyone else have the baby sling instead of the baby bjorn? I'm very curious if I'll like this or not but seems to be much easier to use.
On another note, congrats to my friends Scott & Laura on the birth of their baby boy Colin. He weighed in at 9 lbs 1 oz!! Can't wait to see him.
So now is the day that Mark and I have been looking forward to all weekend, our day of rest!! Nina is going over to a friends for the afternoon to play and i see a nice long nap ahead of me. :)

Thanks Barb. It sounds like you had a wonderful time at your shower. I didn't want to miss it but we have been enjoying our new baby boy, Colin. He is so amazing.
Your Blog looks like a great idea for us to adopt.
