April Showers Help Welcome May Benjamin

I am so lucky to have so many wonderful family and friends.  They put together the most adorable baby shower for me.  They created a nautical themed party filling the house with anchors, boats, red, blue & white candy and decor.  I was so amazed by how adorable and thoughtful everything was.  Benjamin has so many people that love him so much already.  We are just so lucky to have the support and love of our family and friends.

Benjamin moving while I was opening gifts.  He's going to be a wild one!

Joy wrapped each gift with blankets that she made for the little guy.

So cute!

Baby Shower at School by Marci

I am also very lucky to have such a wonderful group of teachers that I work with at school.  They all took the time from their busy schedules to attend my baby shower.  Marci, the best friend & the best coworker anyone could have, came up with the most adorable decor.

I love how she "borrowed" pictures from Facebook to use as sails.

I'm obsessed with this bag... don't know why I'm making such a silly face though.

Baby Shower at my Mom's 

I just love all of the precious baby clothes out there now for babies!

I think we got 3 boxes of diapers from our family.  I know this will only last a couple months!  THEY say a baby uses 10 diapers a day!  WHAT?!

My mom gave us a monetary gift to go pick out the baby monitor we want.

We spent the whole day learning and laughing as the family gave us pointers on how to get through the first couple of months with baby Ben.
