Look who's been monkeying around!

Today was Courtney's monkey themed baby shower. Funny how we throw a shower for the mom but in actuality, it's the baby who gets all the loot!

I made mom's Sweet 'n sour meatballs, yummy spinach salad, & crunchy garlic bread. Kim brought her infamous pasta salad. We ate well.


Debbie is having trouble deciding which kind of poo is in the diaper! It looks like this might be a Reese's pile!

And Kim doesn't appear to appreciate the taste of Gerber baby food. No wonder our kidlets make faces when we first feed them those pureed green beans!


Mom's long piece of yarn proves she WAY overestimated the girth of Courtney's bubble tummy!


Courtney models her 'hooter hider' lovingly made by Jenny. Notice the pockets....

A flannel rag quilt made by yours truly. They are indestructible....

hmmm... perhaps Cooper will turn out to have goth tendencies?


Oops... A group photo taken after Shirley & Jonny had already left.



The loot. This child will be the best dressed infant this side of the Cascades!

On a card, given me by my best friend, Jonny: 'Grandbabies.... all you need to do is hold one to know how heaven feels.... Aren't you blessed.'

Little Cooper is much anticipated and already surrounded by incredible love. Thank you Courtney for carrying him with such grace, attentiveness and love. While incubating, he is absorbing all the vibes of adoration & good will. He is wanted. He is loved.

Come into our world soon, little Cooper!
