My friends, Sharon and Yvette, hosted Baby R's very first shower this past weekend. Knowing me well, the theme of the shower was books. All of the guests were asked to bring a favorite storybook as a gift for Baby R. There were so many wonderful books. . . some I had never heard of, some were favorites from my childhood.
The first thing I did when I got home Saturday afternoon was plop down in the baby's room and started reading. Josh came home to find his wife sitting cross-legged in the middle of the floor surrounded by storybooks. He just scratched his head and gave me that look that says, "I love you, but I think you're weird!" Hahaha!
The shower was perfect. The weather was wonderful, the food was delicious and it was so good to see friends I hadn't seen in a while. Thank you, Yvette and Sharon, for your kindness.
(P.S. I'll try to get some pictures up as soon as my mom sends me the files)

That's so great! It's a perfect choice for you. My sister-in-law's baby shower in March was the same theme; it was the first time I'd ever heard of doing such a thing for a baby shower, but I love it. More people need to read and grow up loving literature!
Yeah for books! I'm all for getting them started with reading young. sometimes I have to remind myself that it's a good thing when my 18 month old brings me book after book all day long!
Sounds like a fun shower.
