On Sunday August 15th, I thought I was going for pedicures with Barb and Chelsey only to walk into there house where my mom and Barb were hosting a surprise baby shower in honor of Alex. It was amazing that the secret had been kept so well including my best friend Stacy who flew up for the party and she is not one for keeping secrets either. It was a really special day to have friends and family together especially when I was not expecting it.

There was tons of food of course, but I think a combination of the excitement and Alex taking up more room, that I didn't actually eat too much. The cake was absolutely delicious and I can't get over how perfectly it matched the nursery theme. Just amazing.

In attendance were Mom and Jackson, Barb, Chelsey and Grandma Evans, Marina Leathers and her mom Ana, Meagin Thayn, Emily Higham, Stacy Carman, Rachel Wingeier, Dana Staskherz, Debby Wohlmut, Sheryl Lindenberg and Marlene Staugler.

We played a couple games including guessing my belly size with toilet paper and guessing what kind of baby food is in the baby jars. Jackson was one of the winners of the toilet paper game which I find funny since he won that game at the last baby shower he went to. He was so excited to win, but then quickly a little disappointed when he realized his prize was lotion. Barb says she will make it up to him with a different prize...hehe.

There were so many wonderful gifts received for Alex. He is already so spoiled and loved by so many friends and family. I still just can't wait for him to arrive and getting more excited by the minute.
