Baby Showers Galore!

Since we got pregnant the very first month here in Tennessee, we didn't think we'd have much of a baby shower.  All of our friends are in Utah, David's family is in Alaska, my family is in California, and we don't know anyone here in Tennessee.  So as soon as we found out we were pregnant we knew we needed to make friends.  We knew we needed to get involved in church because we needed a support system.  

Little did we know that our dear friends in Utah were all planning a "long distance baby shower"!  They each signed up to send us a gift on a certain day and this would go on for about a month.  Some days we'd get one gift and other days we'd get 6! 

It was like Christmas coming home from work everyday!!  I'm still shocked by all the love and support from our Utah friends and family.

Of course my California family and friends got word of this and wanted to join in.  I had girlfriends from high school who I hadn't talked to in years send some of the most generous gifts!  Cannot believe how generous some people are!

Then there were some church ladies who found out that I didn't know anyone here and asked to throw us a baby shower.  WOW.  Ladies I barely know all coming together to shower these babies with amazing gifts.

A couple weeks later, David's work ladies let him know they were planning a baby shower for us as well!!

Last but not least the guys I work with (I work for an engineering firm) wanted to do something for us as well.  They had lunch catered in and gave us a nice stack of money.  Can't go wrong with that right?

So here we are 41 days away from my due date and we're completely ready.  Yes we still need to order a couple things, but we have plenty in gift cards to do so.

We have a wall FULL of diapers...

And a closet FULL of clothes...

We cannot thank our WONDERFUL friends and family, both new and old, enough!!  Y'all have a heart of GOLD!!  Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!
