5/30/08 Sat: Surprise Baby Shower!

Current Mood: Blessed

Well today baby had a surprise baby shower! Mommy was TRICKED! Mommy thought her and her Mommy were going shopping all day to snoop at baby things. At the mall we got a call on the cell phone and the pastor of the church wanted us to drop in so Grammy could pick up her paycheck. Grammy asked Mommy to walk in with her so she didn't have to hang out in the car. We walked downstairs and SURPRISE! Then Great Grandfather played a dedication song for Mommy and it was the theme song to Hogan's Heroes and he stood up and had a Hogan's Heroes shirt on that had a picture of Sgt. Shultz and it said "I see nothing, I hear nothing, I KNOW NOTHING!" Mommy started CRYING at that and was very touched.

Here is the story behind the song. When Mommy was a little girl, her Grandfather moved in with her and her parents for a little while. He was a school teacher then, and his favorite thing to do was watch Hogan's Heroes while grading his class papers in the recliner. Whenever the theme song would come on, Mommy would JUMP up in her playpen and jump and dance all over the place to the theme song. This would make Grandfather laugh and laugh and one time he was laughing so hard he tipped the chair back and all his papers were flying all over the room!!!!! So that's always been a favorite memory of Grandfathers, and he hopes someday to see the baby following in Mother's footsteps with that!

Lots of Mommy and Daddy's friends were there. It was so nice. Mostly Mommy and Daddy's fri ends were there, and some of Mommy's family were there also to show support and it was just a very nice day. There was awesome food and punch, and CUPCAKES of made of lemon, strawberry and brownie! We had chicken wraps, ham wraps, lemon pepper cucumber sandwiches, crab dip and crackers, chips....it was just so yummy!! And let me tell you, BABY MADE OUT! There are just a few things Mommy and Daddy have to pick up yet, but even today, there are still friends dropping off gifts for the little one!

Here are just a few pics....I won't post them all, lol!





Can you tell I'm not happy about them making me wear a hat?! LOL!

My Mom made this wreath totally out of diapers and toys! And you can take it apart and use the diapers!
