Baby Shower











A couple of weeks ago I was off to Omaha where two of my dear friends (pic left) threw me an awesome baby shower. I was so honored!!! When we found out we were pregnant and then left Omaha I was so bummed that friends that meant so much to me wouldn't be around as I got the chance to experience pregnancy and Motherhood. So many awesome ladies in Omaha that I had the privilege of watching their families grow and the opportunity to celebrate with them and now I was moving. Immediately my friends started planning and welcomed me back to Omaha to celebrate with me. What a blessing!

The few days I had in Omaha were wonderful. I had a lot of time with Sbb to just hang out and to see her new place... she has great taste and a really nice home. Also she is so sweet she even gave up her bed so I could stay there with her. Thursday I had plans to meet with 3 friends, on at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was so awesome to have the free time to just really talk and catch up. When I lived there I always had somewhere to go or something to do so having time to just talk and listen to my friends was wonderful.

The day of the Baby Shower was amazing too. I love showers and big events because you get to see so many people you may not get to see on a daily basis but it is great catching up and just seeing them again. Also my Mom and SIL (pic middle) came in town for it. Since my SIL is pregnant to it was a lot of fun to see her and just get to talk about our babies and little "inside tips" we have gathered from our "mom friends". And that wasn't it as far as family goes. Mom Lokker, Dad Lokker, other 2 SIL's (pic right) and Niece from my hubbies side were able to come in and celebrate with us. As I sat there in the "Pregnancy Chair" at the shower I was just overwhelmed by the wonderful friends and family I have been blessed with. If any of you guys are reading this thank you so much!!! You truly are blessings from the Lord and I love each and every one of you.
