On June 7th, Grandma Sandy hosted another baby shower for us at her house in San Diego. It was a big turn out, about 30 people showed up...99% of whom we've never met! The weather was sunny, and the grassy back yard was set up with lawn chairs in a big circle, and tables for gifts and food. Everyone greeted us with such warmth and well wishes for us and the baby.
After having some food, I sat in the middle of the circle and started to open presents...and presents...and more presents. Many of the ladies knitted and hand-made quilts for Oliver. We not only received gifts, we also received great advice from these experienced moms.
At the end of the shower, I relaxed and snacked on a cabbage with cheese and salami stuck on it.
The shower was a great success! Chris helped his mom clean up and put all the gifts in the car (good thing we didn't take the train down) Then the 3 of us had a nice steak dinner at Black Angus and reflected what a wonderful afternoon we all had.
