Today was such a great day! We had our church baby shower this morning and we were so incredibly blessed by our amazing church family (and actual family!). :) We had a beautiful shower with a great turn out! The friends and family there had great well-wished and sweet thoughts to pass on to Michael and me. It was such a blessing to celebrate with them today! They are all so very excited to meet our little girl. We are very lucky people to be loved by such an amazing church family. :) They were so generous to us, giving us diapers, wipes, wash cloths, formula dispensers, a bottle sterilizer, rubber duckies, and bathtub toys! Not to mention several gift cards, which we'll probably save until after she's born to get those items we didn't realize we needed. We also got a number more of cute outfits! Wow! So great! So generous! And then, 2 people who I think are the most generous of all, Mama and Sis came. I love my sweet and wonderful family so much! Even though they had already spent TONS of money on us to throw us an AMAZING baby shower last month, AND bought us gifts to give us at that shower as well (not the cheap ones off the list either!), but they chose to come to our shower today and once again bought us gifts (again, not the cheap ones off the list!). My sweet and wonderful mom bought us our monitor, one of the last items on our "must have" list to get before our baby girl was born. We are so incredibly greatful. Mama, thank you for your generosity. You are too kind to us. Over and over you spoil us (and our little girl). We will never be able to repay you for all that you do for us. We can only say thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We love you so much and are happy and excited to be bringing you your first granddaughter (sometime!) in the next few weeks. :) Then, there's my amazing sister. :) Sis got us our big gift pack of Dr. Brown bottles today. These were another item on our "must have" list. We might have waited to get them for ourselves until our little girl was born, but Sis saved us the trouble. Sis, thank you so much for continuing to spoil me and our baby girl. You are such an important person in my life and I love you so very much. I could not be more blessed with a better sister than you. Our little girl is so lucky to have you as an aunt! I'm sure she will quickly come to appreciate you and your wonderful heart and spirit as much as I do. I am so blessed to have such amazing family in my life. I wish I had more to pay them back with. They continue to overwhelm me with their love and generosity. There just aren't enough words to describe what my family means to me. I could never ask for better. :) So today has been simply wonderful. The family, friends, food, fellowship were amazing and a blessing. What an amazing life I have. Wow. :) Blessed.
