My mom sent me this list of everyone’s gifts from the baby shower we had back in IL over Easter.  All the gifts got mixed up trying to pile everything into the car for the trip back here.  I have the list now, on pretty paper so I can put it in the baby’s scrapbook too, and can begin working on thank you notes.  We really got some awesome gifts from people.  I’m tremendously blessed with lots of loving aunts, great aunts, cousins, sisters-in-laws and friends who might as well be sisters.

And my mom has already made some beautifully sewn items for the baby such as bibs, receiving blankets & a few clothing items.  Not to mention the baby equipment my parents have already purchased.  I think the baby “travel system” (car seat & stroller) they bought has got to be the absolute “Cadillac” of traveling systems.  Those things have every bell & whistle I could have imagined.

So this evening I might work on that project so that we can buy stamps and pop them off in the mail tomorrow.
