The Aunts Came Marching In

This weekend my Aunt Yvette threw us a beautiful baby shower. We were honored by many guests, a few of whom came in from out of town. Aunt Claudia, Alyssa, Hannah, Daisy and Aunt Joetta came in from Minnesota. Aunt Rachel flew in from Colorado. Krista, Klaire and Karoline drove in from Dallas that morning, and Noah's Gammy drove in from Lake Charles. We thank you all for coming in, and thank everyone for all the beautiful gifts. Noah is a loved little boy already.



Alyssa caught the most people saying the word baby, so she racked up on the baby clothespins. Notice her left shoulder. She gave us no slack.


How many toilet paper squares around do you think my belly is right now? It is actually 10 squares at this point in time, with most people guessing around 11.


Thank you Krista for helping me write down who gave what, and a special thanks to Daisy and Hannah for helping me open gifts.


Aunt Claudia gave Noah his first fishing pole and his first tackle box. His Daddy is very excited.
