Grandchild #34

I don't think I've yet mentioned that this baby we're expecting will be grandchild number 34 for my parents. That's right 3-4. You'd think by this time my mom would be tired of baby showers and such. However, if you know my mom I don't think she could ever get tired of throwing a party. Especially when my sisters get involved.

So last week my mom and sisters threw me an amazing baby shower and I have to blog about it (I promise this to be the last of the baby shower posts by the way. Ben says they're taking over the blog :) ).

Everything turned out beautifully and we had a great turn-out. It was so great to see some people that I hadn't seen in years.

My mom and sisters did all the food. The table was beautifully decorated.

My Bushman cousins gave me the most amazing diaper cake.
Really, it was a work of art.
