Baby Shower Fun


This past weekend, Eli's sister, aunt and mother threw us a baby shower for our family and friends in Decatur.  We had a wonderful time hanging out with friends and family, and Colin got a lot of goodies:) Here is a picture of the hostesses and Cade monster (his nickname his Uncle "E-I" gave him).

                    

Eli's parents gave us our Pack-N-Play and our Travel System. We had fun putting these together Sunday night. The pack-n-play can be tricky, but we will get the hang of it!
                               
                    

Memaw gave us a handknitted blanket, hat, and stuffed animals.  So precious and will be a keepsake for sure!
                              

Granny and Aunt Sue gave us a houndstooth picnic basket with TONS of Bama gear for Colin.  Granny also gave him a baby Bible and a letter for him to open on HIS wedding day.
                    
                     

Carrie gave us our matress for the crib and a huge plastic tub of goodies including diapers, wipes, baby utensils, bowls, bath gear, and more. She also told us about another gift that she is still in the process of making. She is making a photo book on Shutterfly of Granddaddy (Colin's middle name is Ollie after his Great Granddaddy). I am very excited and can't wait to see the final product!
                     
                    

Here are pictures of some more gifts that we got from our sweet family and friends:)

You look great and Colin racked up! I loved getting at the new things and putting them together right away! We have the same pank n play and it is so wonderful to first few weeks. We had it right by our bed and it helped so much during night time! We are almost there!!!!
