Baby Shower Time!

Being away from family during my first pregnancy has been a little tough and certainly our wonderful friends here in Taiwan have helped in so many ways.  My close friend Mary threw me a baby shower a few weekends ago and made me feel so loved and spoiled.  We played games, drank mocktails and wine (except me), ate homemade chocolate cake, opened awesome gifts, and overall had a fantastic afternoon.

The beautiful dessert table

Perhaps my favorite game of the day was guess the baby photo contest.  My mom sent over some pictures of me and I can't wait to compare once Huxley joins us.

I was almost 10 pounds at birth, eek!  

I chose this picture for the game and Jeff got it right away

Here's the photo of Jeff.  I totally thought it was one of the girls!

I always loved to dress up as a kid

All the wonderful ladies!

Can't get over how adorable this cake is!

Finally what we'd all been waiting for, cake time!

Present time :-)

With just 3 weeks left until the due date, we're both super antsy with anticipation to meet little Huxley!
