Cumberland Baby Shower

HJ was thrown a wonderful shower in Cumberland by his aunties (Nicole, Cassandra, Chantal, and Jasmine) and Grandma Schubert.  HJ and Liz were able to laugh and chat with some of my relatives.  The boys went golfing, and the shower was followed by a surprise 70th birthday party for my dad.  It was a great day, and once again HJ was showered with love, laughter and joy. 

The night before the shower, Liz and I made our first diaper purchase.  We had some great coupons and decided to pull the trigger.  Throughout the pregnancy we've passed small milestones which have made HJ's arrival more "real"...like having diapers in our cart.  Can we say "paradigm shift?"
 

HJ received a butt load (that's more than a ton) of Wisconsin gear...and I couldn't be happier.   Aunties Nicole and Kim also gave HJ some Cincinnati Bengals goodies.  We won't show any of those things because they're hard on the eyes and stomach.

What a fun time you had with Nathaniel's family.
Now that I know how to blog, you will never be rid of me. The next step is Skype, don't you think?
