As promised, we meet again! This past Saturday my sister & two of my best friends hosted my baby shower. It was a lot of fun getting everyone together to celebrate baby Marlon. He made out like a fat rat too!
Everything was wonderfully special. From the adorable diaper cakes to the delicious pineapple cake with raspberry filling to the cilantro cream & chicken chalupas to the monogrammed diaper bag to oddles of diapers to a beautifully hand crocheted blanket to a pack of Nike onsies to a crib to my dad trying to get Simone to make him some fried chicken to Michael's sister driving in from Temple to Morgan acting like my mini hostess to the hilarious tips from all the mommies… I could go on & on. Michael was a super sport too, eating spoon fulls of random baby food & guessing the mystery flavors… I’m sorry but the green one would have been an automatic pass on my end.
We were missing Shawn Patrick at the shower, which would have made it an over the top event. He’s so excited for his “baby brother Marlon” & we know he's going to be a great big brother. Michael & I are starting to use the term “the boys” more & more frequently, so our home is going to be even more filled with love in just a couple of months.
This Friday marks 30 weeks into the pregnancy & I’ve got to be honest in telling you that I’m so anxious & so nervous at the same time! As much as we prepare for his arrival, I just know that we’re not going to be PREPARED…if that makes sense.
I have SO many questions & I just want to be great for him so I need you all to prepare for random, late night, personal questions about parenting cause I promise I’m going to need help & guidance!
XOXO,
Mel
