Showers, X-mas, & Nesting
Well, December was a busy month and I was not able to blog more often. On the weekend of Dec 8th, many friends flew in and we had a busy weekend of group dinners, our baby shower, and a Christmas party.
The baby shower was a lot of fun, and thanks to all of you who helped organize and run the shower as well as those who attended. For pictures, you will have to check out Chris Wasserman's blog or Logan's blog, as I did not have time to take a single picture with my camera.
That night, we enjoyed dinner and yummy desserts at EuroCafe with our friends who flew in from out of town, Jeanne, Carole, the Smiths, & the Muszynskis. Afterwards, everyone who was staying with us watched Never Been Thawed and hung out in the hot tub. It was a fun night!
The next day after seeing off a few of our guests to the airport, I helped Raquel cook dinner for our party (which they used to host annually). It was a fun night and Nathan had a great time opening gifts.
By the way, this is what happens when you light the gas fireplace and forget to move the candles away from the heat...
On Monday the last of our guests, the Muszynskis, were dropped off at the airport to go home, along with Bob, who was flying to St. Louis for the night to see the Rams-Bears game in the owner's suite with his sister. He had a great time and would love to tell you all about it! :)
The rest of the weekends in December were filled with getting ready for the baby as well as a few more holiday events, including the Entrepix Christmas party. Mom & Dad painted the nursery and I helped Mom put the border up.
My brother, Bernard, drove in from Sunnyvale Christmas weekend and we had a nice duck and beef brisket dinner on Christmas Eve. On Christmas night, Bob's band came over and we had a fun jam session.
The rest of the holiday week was spent nesting...Much laundering & cleaning & assembling of new baby things was accomplished as well as a trip or two to Ikea for a dresser for the nursery. I also did Part 1 of an art project & gift for my friend's 1-yr-old babies ( Julian Gil & Daniel Johnson )...where we had fun getting the babies' foot & hand prints on canvas. I'll post the final version after Part 2 is done...
