Did I Forget / A Belated Thank You

I think I forgot to mention that the wonderful women of my ward threw me a baby shower on the 8th of January (Thursday). They had to trick me out of the house for it because I had made it clear that there was to be NO SHOWER!

So I got this call from Tyler saying that Rachel was really sick and he needed to take her to the hospital, could I come over and sit at their house while their kids slept. I was tempted to say no because the Dr had put me on bed rest but it was just a few houses down, they needed me and I wasn't going to be lifting anything or doing anything so I hurriedly put my shoes on and made my way slowly down the street. By hurriedly I mean...I didn't brush my hair, put make-up on, change my stained clothes or anything else you would do if you were going out (I did have a shower that day but I just threw my hair up in a pony tail and didn't even comb it afterward). When I got there Rachel answered the door looking totally fine and said, "come on in!"... yea, at that point I knew what had just happened.

The food was yummy, the company was wonderful and the gifts were super fabulous. Everyone made freezer meals to stock up our freezer in anticipation of the girls arrival and to help out while I was on bed rest - HOW THOUGHTFUL!

So to all you wonderful girls - I thank you, my family thanks you, our tummies thank you and our freezer thanks you!
