Babyshower

So Saturday was the Baby shower and it was a great success! We had a wonderful tea party in my mams house with lots of guests! Gemma made some beautiful cakes and I made the sandwiches. My mam got out a tea service that she had gotten as her wedding present from my uncle Mairtin. There were 12 guests all told and everyone had a good time and got some cake to bring home! The baby is being spoiled already with beautiful baby grows and vests from Leanne, Emer, Gemma, Marianna and Lorraine. Niamh bought the bambino a moses basket which is going to be very helpful and Donna bought the baby a lamb toy and a lovely photo frame. My aunt Mary had knitted a gorgeous baby blanket and so had my mam along with lots of cardigans! But the "classiest" present came from my uncle Richie who bought a Tiffany's silver spoon so the baby can be born with a silver spoon!
We got the all clear from the Hospital scan too so for the moment its a natural birth not a c-section which has me very relieved I must say!
Brad and I are on a few days holiday now and we have been painting one of the bedrooms but that's all we're up to.
