El Nino's Big Adventure

My sister, C, and mother hosted a baby shower for us. Attendees were aunts and cousins (no uncles or male cousins for some reason). The quilt is made by Mom. Lovely, lovely. C made beautiful white chenille bumpers for the baby crib, and we received many Winnie-the-Pooh themed gifts. Our heartfelt thanks and love to all!


C & Mom baked & decorated this clever cake - carrot with cream cheese frosting and blueberries as the accent. The food was delightful as was the conversation. C passed around a parenting tip notebook for each family member to share a cherished piece of child-rearing advice. It makes a lovely keepsake and one that we will treasure.



Sunday we all (Mom, C, and our nephew) went to visit Dad at the nursing home. C took these beautiful pictures, and I wanted to share them with you. Much love to you all. And I'll keep you posted as we progress. (Next week begins our third trimester!)
