On Friday, Heather, Chris, and I all flew in to Detroit. We ate yummy king crab legs with my parents and everyone (except me) stayed up insanely late drinking, playing cards, and talking.
Saturday, I was so happy to have my favorite Jimmy John's subs and get a much needed pedicure with the girls. At 6pm we all congregated at Chris's parents' place for my birthday celebration. It was a lot of fun to see friends and family, especially since we only get the chance to a few times a year. And I must say, this birthday was the birthday of babies!
Not only was there one in my belly, but I got to see little Dominic, Eliana, Vaughn, Evan, and Owen! I tried to at least squeeze each one throughout the night, but probably spent the most time hanging on to the youngest ones who just didn't have any choice in the matter.
Sunday was the much awaited baby shower. About 30 guests came and played games, ate the wonderful food prepared by both moms, and watched me open a pile of presents. I was thrilled with all of the cute clothes people picked out. And rest assured, ever last outfit has already been washed and hung in the closet. If this little girl was born tomorrow, by god she would be well dressed and sucking on a Juicy pacifier!
Again, thanks to everyone for making this weekend very special and fun for me and Chris and baby girl.
Love, Jessica
