Baby Shower

Our friend's (Colin and Margaret) daughter (Shelly) is expecting a baby at the end of October and today is the baby shower. My first memory of Shelly was when she was about a week old. Colin had called Ed and invited us up asking Ed to bring his survey equipment --- Colin had a property that he wanted Ed to check something out on. When we arrived, Margaret said Shelly is sleeping so everything should be fine. Then Colin, Margaret, Cort (their toddler at the time) and Ed climbed into a vehicle and left. Here I was alone with a new born and I didn't know thing about babies. Every five minutes or so I would get up and stand over the bassinet and place my hand on Shelly to make sure she was still breathing. Luckily she continued to breath and slept the entire time Margaret was gone. I think the shower was a success, everyone appeared to have a good time and Shelly received a lot of wonderful gifts.


Shelly's sister in-law (Sherri-Lyn) made this fun "cake" --- lots of useful baby things.
