So I tried to be firm and let everyone know they did not need to get us anything, but of course no one listened to us and baby JJ ended up with gifts galore. Thank you so much for your love and thoughtfulness everyone we are so thankful for you all!
I had so much fun opening up all the little boy gifts... who says boy stuff isn't fun?!
Big Sister Johanna ran into the room when she found out we were opening presents. She was a great helper for Mommy and loved opening baby Brothers stuff.
Cheeeeeese!
I don't remember her pouting during this photo, but I thought it was pretty cute.
Thanks Grandma for the awesome baseball chair! Looks like someone approves...
Anything else in this big giant box?
For party games they had everyone split up into groups to design a onesie for baby JJ. Jeff and I had to decide between four shirts which top two we likes the best. It was very hard since they were all so cute!
So not the greatest photo to display, but I realized after the party was over that I did not get one belly shot! Or photos of me with any of my guests for that matter... I was too caught up in all the excitment!
We got to meet baby Joey for the first time and he sure is a cutie-pie!
Our friends Niki and Doug came down all the way from outside of Fort Collins, we were so happy to see them and their beautiful new addition their precious little Adley.
I love this one 'little brother'
So cute!! (I picked this one as #1 because it is perfect for little JJ, his Aunt Kara knows him well!) Jeff's pick for our #2 has the Denver Bronco's logo on the front... also perfect for our little bean!
Love this one too! What a great idea, I am going to love seeing Johnathan in his homemade onesies. By the way this is the only picture I had of my Mom from the shower (did I mention how I was having way too much fun to snap any photos?!) It was so nice having her here for the weekend and at the shower, it made it so much more special having her there!
Our guests were so kind to bring packages of diapers for a diaper raffle. I had to draw the ticket and the winner got four club level seats to the Rockies game. I felt a lot of pressure to pick the number! We were so blessed (I really can't say that enough!!!) and ended up with so many diapers, we will be set for months! Thank you thank you thank you everyone!
At the end of the day we loaded up the cars and headed home. Later that evening Johanna had a lot of fun going through all the gifts with her Daddy. She is going to love helping her baby brother.
Thanks again to everyone we love you all and it means so much to know how much you love little JJ as well. We can't wait for everyone to meet him!
The two of them checking out stuff just cracks me up.
ReplyDeleteThis "sprinkle" is unbelievable! How nice of your friends to throw this for you!! I love all of the details and nice decorations, food, gifts, and favors they picked out. I'm so happy you have such nice people supporting you-- wish I could have been there! I love the photo of Johanna pouting too, lol.
ReplyDeleteHi Ems
ReplyDeletewhat a great time that was. It sure makes it easier for us to see how well cared you are by all your friends and Colorado family! Love it.
i think Johanna is putting on or picking off the little stickers she found in the pouting picture, i think they were from the bows. What a fun time she had!
love you bunches
