My Shower June 10th...."LOADS of Pics" Long
Good Morning Ladies!!!
This is going to be a long one....LOL We had our (my) baby shower on Sunday and it was a HUGE success!!! Shaelyn is SO spoiled already
and I LOVE it!!! We had a huge turn out and it took us almost 1 1/2 hours to open all the gifts, I was getting leg cramps sitting there. The pics I included are taken by my niece, I haven't received the ones from my mom's friend (the actual photographer) as of yet, hopefully soon...LOL It was a very HUMID day here and the weather co-operated beautifully other than melting our butts off...LOL
The little girl in the pics is my 4 year old Great-Niece Morgan who designated herself as official present passer. She was great and so strong, even carrying a case of wipes by herself (we all know how heavy and awkward that is to carry), she has super muscles I told her. That is also my Mom sitting beside me, she was official card writer (wrote items received in gift bag in card so that it is easier when writing Thank-you cards).
I also recieved the crib set from my DH that I wanted for Shaelyn's room (he was sneaky about going to get it too).
In the pic you will see a little trunk, my Niece made in and her and my SIL filled it with tons of stuff. It is called a memory box, it is themed Winnie the Pooh and has her name painted on the top of the lid. Awesome!!!
My Shopping story…..
Went yesterday to buy the next stage car seat as I already have the infant car seat. I went to Sears, nothing I liked, went to Babies R Us, nothing I liked, went to Wal-Mart, asked the dept manager if any of their seats were stage 2-3 with rear facing option (we all know babies grow out of their infant seats in a blink of an eye so I need rear facing still for stage 2) well no was the answer, so we looked at the stage 1-2-3 (not that I needed the stage 1) and I seen 1 I liked, but the price $174.98 canadian. Now the dilemma I have is that I need 2 seats. One for my vehicle and I drive school bus and I am going back in September and I need one for the bus as well. Well after taxes that will be $496.00 canadian…..eek that’s a chunk of cash. The Dept manager seen me trying to figure out the math and she says to me…" I’ll tell you something, when I came in this morning they were on sale. If you are serious about wanting one, I will give it to you for the sale price." I am thinking, hmmm, what $20.00 off, still pricey. So I ask what the sale price was. She tells me they were $98.00 this morning. I ask can I have 2? So I got my 2 seats and saved $273.00 can on them. Awesome deal if I don’t say so myself!!! We also spent the money and gift cards received at the shower, so it didn’t cost US anything.
Well here is the spam... There are plenty of pics but I only included a few so far..LOL
Here is the link for the short video of me opening the Crib layette set form DH, the paper read to our baby girl Shaelyn, Love Mom & Dad!!! So sweet!!! Damn hormones, just thinking and typing it out makes me teary eyed!!!
