This post is WAAAAY overdue (the shower was on March 13th), but I wanted to share it with you anyways... :)
During the first weekend of Andy's Spring Break (boy do I miss that!), Andy, Wayne-Dog and I drove down to Houston to visit our families and for the Baby Shower that my sister Jenny threw for us! We had a BLAST and are SO grateful for the wonderful, generous gifts we received! The shower was great fun (serving wine and margaritas at the shower probably didn't hurt either)! ;-) And Jenny and Mom worked so hard with all the food, games, and decorations! It was jungle themed - even the invites were super cute!

We just wanted to say a special THANK YOU to Jenny and Mom, as well as all the guests who showered us with an abundance of love and gifts! It had been a while since I had seen some of the guests - I sure enjoyed catching up! Here are some photos to enjoy... Thanks again!
The cute sign-in table with a signature mat that read "Welcome Baby John" for everyone to sign:

The SUPER CUTE diaper cake that Jenny made for us made a great centerpiece for the gift table! It was filled with all sorts of goodies!

The clothes line... can't wait for Baby John to wear these!

This one shows the main room with all the decorations and the abundance of gifts! Thanks again to everyone!

Check out this SPREAD!!! yum!

Cute decorations...

I had to get photos of all our guests... these 3 lovely ladies travelled all the way from San Antonio! Nicki (far right) and I were best friends in elementary school and hadn't seen each other in years! She came with her mom and sister, and our moms are still the best of friends.

More of our guests, including my mother-in-law and aunt-in-law from The Woodlands. So glad so many friends and family could make it!



We played some great games - definitely entertaining! This one was funny - it was making fun of pregnant ladies running/waddling to the potty... :) Everyone was a good sport!


Here, Pam (middle) won the prize for winning the "mystery diaper" game... it was pretty gross but funny at the same time! ;-)

Check out the BEAUTIFUL baby quilt that Mom made!!! Baby John will LOVE this special quilt from his Grandma! It has all these cute animals all over it, and she even made the puppy dog look like our very own Wayne-Dog! :)

Mom and me with the beautiful quilt -- she is SO talented!

Jenny and me with the super cute (and loaded!! the photo doesn't do it justice) diaper cake she made!

The Bergman Girls - thanks again, Jen and Mom!

A little belly photo... our profile shot at 31 weeks:

How handsome is this little guy and his mama! Our nephew Ethan was instant entertainment at the shower - all the ladies loved him (and his shirt)!

Playing with Grandma in the tissue paper after the shower -- so much fun!

Here he is the morning of the shower... what a cute kiddo!

Uncle Andy and Ethan up early on Saturday morning... Aunt Abby was jealous that Uncle Andy got to snuggle him!

And of course Wayne-Dog LOVED seeing his cousins Mia (below) and Zoei!

All the pups running and playing together:

We had such a WONDERFUL weekend down in Houston! Thanks again for EVERYTHING! Hope this finds each of you doing well. Take care and God bless!
Love,
Abby, Andy, Baby John, and Wayne-Dog
P.S. Our countdown has just one month to go!!! :-D
Everybody looks great! We can't wait to come see you all!
