We just returned from 2 weeks in Texas with family - we came back to Boston with many a bag full of baby stuff in tow (plus Nettie.) We were blessed with 2 showers while we were home. Troy's family surprised us with a family shower. It was such a nice time - we got so many girly little baby clothes. So fun! Troy's Mom and sister did a wonderful job of showering us with good things and we so enjoyed celebrating with the Douglas/West family.
Then after Christmas we had a "Taylor" shower at my sister's ranch. Sarah, my cousin Christy, and my life-long friend Stephanie outdid themselves. We had a wonderful brunch, got to visit with ladies that have really meant alot to me, and boy did they shower us with wonderful gifts! We received beautiful hand-made blankets that we can't wait for our little girl to cuddle into, goodies to outfit our nursery, a car-seat, sweet clothes, and gift certificates that will help us tremendously. This day was so special.
We are now back in Boston (just in time for absolutely freezing weather) and we are busy working on our nursery. We've put clothes away, Troy painted, I painted a little table, we put the bedding on, hung pictures (straight from the walls from Gran Taylor's house) and arranged it all just so.
We are really looking forward to our shower here in Boston in the end of this month and celebrating with our family here.
This baby girl is going to be here before we know it!
Thought you might like to see a few pictures of the nursery ...so far. The dresser/changing table is in the hallway by our bathroom (the joys of living in a Boston apartment.) But it all seems to fit just fine.
It is definitely girly, just like her Daddy wanted...
