Celebrations for Madelyn

We are so thankful for wonderful family and friends! We have had several showers so far, and we still have one more to go! We are so lucky to have gotten a lot of the things we need (and want) for Madelyn at the showers. 

Sherri, Cody's mom, along with some help from some friends at her church, gave us a shower on September 24. A lot of family and people from Sherri's church were in attendance. She decorated with lots of girly, pink baby items and balloons. She even made the cake for us--a yummy layer of strawberry pound cake and an equally delicious layer of chocolate pound cake. We had a great time and got tons of clothes, blankets, wipes, and other baby items at this shower!

Tables were decorated with stuffed animals, books, balloons, piggy banks, and other baby items.

Some of our friends gave us a shower on October 2.  Neighbors, co-workers, and people from our church were invited.  We received clothes, diapers, an activity center, and other baby items at the shower.  Unfortunately, I don't have many pictures.
