So our first baby shower was this past weekend. It went incredibly well and we had so much fun! We started eating about 1. My Grandma and Angie had brought pork loin, sides, fruit pizza, cakes, etc.... and my mom made a yummy pink punch from raspberry sherbert and strawberry pop. As people came we Lana had them submit an ornament on the "advice tree". After a bit we did introductions and played some games (baby price is right, drawing baby on top of head, measuring the mom-to-be's belly, guess the baby food, a diaper raffle), and of course opened gifts. After that everyone had cupcakes and went to swim in the community pool. Ended the evening by ordering Pizza Hut and starting a firepit in our back yard. Thanks so much to everyone that could make it!! Really had a lot of fun. (pics soon)

Dear Ava,
You are already very loved. I just know you are going to enjoy all the bright start toys and especially the books someday that people brought to the shower. Daddy was very excited because someone even bought you a toy that talks in Spanish. He really wants you to learn. He also told me he had decided what your nickname from him was going to be. Evita, which in Spanish means "Little Ava". I thought that was adorable. He is very excited to teach you Spanish. Maybe Mommy will pick up some things along the way too haha. We both have so much we want to teach you. We get to meet you now in just a few months!!
Love,
Mommy
