This past Monday the wonderful first grade teachers threw Elizabeth and I a joint baby shower at school. It was perfect and so much fun! They really outdid themselves. James was able to come and he was a great sport with all those ladies. ;)
The team had a cake made for each of us - one with a train on it for Baby Jack and one with a monkey for Baby Liam. Both in the shape of a onesie and both adorable!!! The people that I work with really are overly generous and the best to work with. After the shower, James said, "I don't want you to stop working there! Everyone is so nice!" And he's right -they are. I will really, really, really miss them. :(
We ended up getting some really wonderful gifts. A couple of grade levels went in together and got the SnugRider, which I mentioned in my last post. We also got the space saver high chair from our Babies R Us registry, the hamper and tons of other stuff. Oh! One teacher, that I love and is hilarious, got us Pee-Pee TeePee's! They are for little boys....so we don't get an extra bath! They are so cute and have airplanes on them! So exciting and overwhelming. Here are some pictures:

Here is our super cute and very tasty onesie train cake!! A parent made it (she has a catering business).
The changing pads for our changing tables from Genie, our former principal. So sweet of her to come! She came to our wedding, too!
James and I with our awesome diaper cake that Natalie & Katie put together as a gift from our team. It is full of diapers, washcloths, blankets, onesies, bibs, pacifiers...all kinds of wonderful goodies and it's so cute! Very creative!

And finally some new side view pictures!! James thought the second one was hilarious and it kind of is!!I am still feeling good and feeling lots of movement. Feeling tired is starting to make an unwelcome comeback, but that's okay... I am tired but still want to always be on the move doing something. I just do everything a lot slower than I used to! I always have to ask James to walk slower now. :) And yes, it did finally warm up here! Shorts and flip flops are exciting! It has actually been in the high 80's. What strange weather we've been having!
