Angela - leaving on a jet plane

Angela will be leaving this afternoon to go to Portland. Yup, it's baby shower time! Although I am very excited for her to go and to see everyone, I have to admit to a little jealousy. She gets to see my parents and all the rest of the fam, and I'll be lonely with only two pups to keep me company.

Aw, I'll be all right, and I really am excited for her.

But I'm more excited for Denisha, Angela's little sister. She's ten and has been packed for over a week. I know Angela will show her a good time, gallavanting around the city together, and talking baby stuff for 48 hours straight. That's like pure crack for Denisha. She's going to be on a high that may not stop until the birth.

I'm fairly certain I've never been to an actual baby shower (at least since I was a baby myself), and I'm hoping that she has fun. Mali has put it together, so I know she will. Who could ask for a better neice? Seriously!

As an update, birthing classes are progressing nicely, and we attended a really cool potluck at the birthing center the other day. Lots of baby fun, and everything seems to be going smooth as can be.

Anyway, for those of you who follow the blog, but won't be in Portland, wish her luck and hope she has a good time.

I hear you had your own baby shower, Kelly. Complete with a lovely bib and, I'm sure, other lovely surprises...

The girls and I are meeting up in the morning for some gallivanting. Wish you were here too....

I did indeed have my own shower. It was a bit different, I think, than what Angela experienced. Lovely bib. Lovely shots of booze. Lovely broken chair from wrestling with lovely nick (well, he is lovely). Good times.
