Work Shower

Today my girlfriend and co-worker Theresa hosted a work shower for me. I feel so special that so many people came to celebrate with baby and me. We got a lot of fantastic gifts and I just can't wait to use them all! Chris and I went through all of the gifts this evening and found a home for each and everyone of them in the nursery. Thank you again T for making today so special! And a big thank you to all of you who came to the lunch shower as well. I truly feel so blessed to have such amazing co-workers.

As I mentioned we got a lot of great gifts but there is one in particular I thought I would share as I about died when I opened it! My friend Ryan, who I took to the NKOTB Concert a couple weeks ago, got me a ticket to go with him to see Britney in April!!! I am so excited as I have always loved Brit and can't wait to see the show! He also included a really funny book. At first glance I refused to take it out of the bag. Remember I am at work when I am opening the gifts and everyone is staring at me waiting to see what I pull out of the bag. Well the title was "Porn For New Moms." I instantly was beat red and thought "oh great Ryan what did you get me!" After some pursuading I took the book out and found it wasn't anything too naughty but really funny quotes with pictures of dads that any new mom would enjoy! Here are a few quotes that made me laugh...but first you have to picture a really cheesey photo next to it of the dad posing (fully clothed) doing whatever the quote is talking about. I really can't do this justice but trust me it's pretty funny! Chris even got a good laugh out of it but quickly said, "I don't think I like this book too much!" LOL
- First Quote: "Let's not have sex tonight. Let me just rub your feet while you tell me about the baby's day."
- Second Quote: "Sure you girlfriends can drop their babies off here while you girls go to the bar. The more the merrier!"
- Third Quote: "Don't worry honey. Your mom and I will take wonderful care of our baby while you and your girlfriends are at the spa"
- Final Quote for now: "No, no! Sit down! I'll do the dishes. After nine months of pregnancy, 26 hours of labor and 18 stitches, you don't have to do a damn thing around here!"
- Ok one more...."You say your breasts have gotten smaller since birth? I hadn't noticed. They look amazing!"

I will share more of these quotes from time to time as they are sure to make you smile...at least they do me.

And of course my fellow Coug, Theresa, got me a WSU onsie! Being his parents met roaming the streets of Pullman it is so appropriate. Also, as you all know I am originally from Kentucky. One of my other co-workers is also a Kentucky native and knows just how die hard us "Cat" fans are and got us a UK Onsie. So looks like before our little guy arrives he will already be a Coug and Cat fan! Maybe he will help one of these teams back to getting some "W's" here soon!
And here are a few other of the gifts we got...

Airplane Robeeze (perfect since dad is now a pilot!)
Cow Bib (so freakin' cute!)
And, of course my favorite...
Lastly, here is a pic of my almost 32 week belly! Seriously I don't think I can get any bigger...but still have a little bit further to go! It looks like a basketball is stuck to the front of me! How did this happen?!?!?
