The baby shower was absolutely wonderful. Milly (Mike's mom) and Riann (my best friend) did a beautiful job. It was more than I expected. As soon as I arrived I was shocked, surprised, and flabbergasted because my parents were there. I had no idea that they were going to make it. My mom from the get go had stated that they would not be able to attend due to work obligations. It was an amazing surprise. Everyone who was there to see the moment got choked up.
Mike and I are extremely lucky to have such great friends and family. Even those who could not make it were there in spirit. I appreciate all the hard work and effort that was put in to making this event a success.
Below are the pictures that were taken with my camera. Hopefully, I will be able to get everyone else's pictures as well.
By the way, I am now entering my 9 month!! Only a few more weeks.

Trying to reach the gifts and of course Mike is just watching.
Notice I'm not really listening to him- I wonder if I do that often. :)
On your mark, get set, GO! Beer drinking games at a baby shower? Oh yeah! Who can drink out of a baby bottle the quickest.
