Baby shower #1

I had my first baby shower last week. It was put on by a good friend (and teammate's wife) for my friend Amber and me. We decided to do it now so all of our "football" friends could be there before the season is over and everyone heads to their "real" homes. We had a nice lunch, cake and then gifts. It was fun sitting and visiting with the experienced mom's so they could offer their advice on the "must-haves" and the "don't needs". I also liked hearing their stories about how they got through everything from labor to air travel with babies. All of this information will definitely come in handy as I continue this journey into parenthood. Here are Amber and I and our bellies...



Our super cute cake!





I got a lot of cute stuff so the process of stocking the nursery has started! As each day goes by, I get more and more excited for what 2010 has in store for Rian and I. We'll know soon enough!
