Showerpalooza

Well, Showerpalooza has come and gone, and I cannot believe the love and generosity bestowed on us. Friday night Mom, Aunt Karen and Aunt Roni threw a shower for Missy and me here at my house. They came in while I was at work on Friday and decorated the house and it was simply beautiful. The decorations were brown and pink, since I don't know the sex of the Bean and Biscuit will be a girl. Aunt Karen outdid herself with all the centerpieces. You can tell the woman is a professional! The Halls, Hollkamps and Robbins were here and it was so wonderful to see everyone. At one point I almost teared up, so grateful for all the people who love us.

Saturday was the Wilson shower, again at my house. Sue, Aunt Pat, Aunt Marsha and Aunt Debbie were the hostesses with the mostesses. Again, the colors were brown and pink, but they put their own twist on things. The baby cakes were hilarious. There was a cake for each of us, each composed of two round cakes (one for the head, one for the body) in the shape of a baby. The diaper on one said Bean and the diaper on the other said Biscuit. When it came time to cut the cakes, Missy and I decided to behead them and we'll save the little heads to serve Biscuit and Bean on their first birthdays. Twisted, aren't we??!

Sunday was Missy's girlfriend shower hosted by Jennifer and Amy. They had a creative idea in that they bought a baby scrapbook and took pictures of each guest. We each decorated a page of the scrapbook and put our picture on the page. What a great idea!

Afterward Missy had to head home and I was so sad to see her go. I miss her so much and I love just hanging out with her, as if I get to see her all the time. But I was so happy to just have her near me, as we watched girlie movies and laid around with our bellies hanging out, watching our babies move. I love my sissy and it was so wonderful spending Showerpalooza with you. Thank you so much to all our wonderful family and friends who made the weekend so special for us. We love you!
