Twinkle Twinkle Little Star What a Tiny Miracle You Are!

My mom and Dave's mom threw me a baby shower on April 27th in my hometown.


I actually picked the decorations for the baby shower.  I thought the blue whale decorations were so cute.  There were even matching plates, cups, and napkins.




My mom found this quote, framed it, and displayed it for the shower.  I think it is such a cute quote and so true.

We served lemon water, cinnamon rolls, muffins, mini cream puffs, fresh fruit, and mini candy bars.




 The baby shower was an open house so guests were able to come, eat, visit, see/hold the baby, and leave as they needed to.
 Dave's aunt and cousin drove all the way from Kamas to attend the baby shower.

 People from my hometown- Mandy and her daughter.

 My Aunt Tricia and I spending some time together.  My Aunt Tricia is from Scotland.  My cousin met her there when he was on his mission.  He set her up with my Uncle Richard.  Tricia's mom back in Scotland is such a sweetheart.  She is Catholic and has been lighting candles and saying prayers for Dave and me to be placed with a baby.  We are so thankful for her prayers and faith in a loving God who answers prayers.

 Ward members from my home ward.
 Charlotte and me.  Charlotte's daughter adopted her children so we had a great visit about the blessings of adoption.
 Vicky, Dave's mom, visiting with Carolan a woman from my home ward.
  
We received so many gifts from family and friends.  We are so blessed.  Baby blankets, clothes, baby toys, baby wash and lotion, wash cloths and towels are just some of the gifts we were given.


On May 4th my visiting teachers threw me another baby shower so members of our ward could attend.  We played games, had treats, and then I opened presents.  Wilson was greatly blessed at this shower too.

Yummy treats.

 My visiting teacher, Sister Griswold, gave me a dinosaur diaper cake.  It was so cute.  Wilson loves the stuffed green dinosaur that came inside of it.
