Phil and I feel so incredibly blessed by the thoughtfulness and generosity of everyone who made the shower this last Saturday so special. My sister-in-law Katie created a beautiful, sentimental message board that had a baby picture of Phil with a message from his mom, and a baby picture of me with a message from my mom that all the guests also signed. Someone should've warned me to wear waterproof mascara! Katie also did a ton of work on amazing decorations and flower arrangements, fun games, and a delicious ice cream cake! She really did an exceptional job. And thank you to my mother-in-law Doris, for hosting the shower at her home, for all the great food, and all the work she did as well. What an unforgettable day!
I was overwhelmed with emotion when my Grandma Ruth surprised me by flying all the way up from California to attend the shower. I totally didn't expect that. I can't believe how everyone kept such a good secret! She also passed down a silver spoon that was used by my dad as a baby. It will be a family heirloom for each generation.
Baby Lott is going to be a very stylish baby! We received lots of cute clothes. And the super-soft blankets make me so excited to cuddle with my little son! We are also grateful for all the baby necessities, accessories, and toys we received that will be very useful. I'm starting to not feel so overwhelmed by all the stuff we need. We washed the 0-3 month newborn outfits and blankets, and as we were putting them away, Phil insisted he just had some lint in his eyes, but I know the truth... ;)
I'm excited for the next shower my sister is throwing for us on April 15 and the one Robin from church is throwing us on April 22. We really appreciate all the friends and family who are celebrating this special time with us.
