Big Ups to the MI Baby Shower Committee

The MI Baby Shower is occurred this Saturday and it was great. I'm not big on the whole baby shower concept because they're usually pretty corny, BUT the MI Baby Shower Committee did an excellent job! I had a great time & the vibe was that all of the guests did as well ... woo hoo! I tell Kiddo all the time that they're already very loved and they have "councils" of people who will love them, guide them, and spoil them forever and ever. I'm sure she or he hears me too because I ensure that there's a kick right before or after I say it. But yeah, this shower definitely proved that and so I wanted to definitely give a shout out to the committee. Also, thank you to all who attended, gave gifts, gave some love our way, etc ... I'll post pictures and whatnots as soon as I can.

The GA Baby Shower will take place after Kiddo's arrival so I'll keep you all posted on that too for those down that way. The GA Baby Shower Committee will set a date after Kiddo's arrival.

In Other News:

We had our last Childbirth Education class this past Tuesday and it was quite an experience. The class itself was very informative and our teacher was very laid back and completely honest about what to expect. Plus, she's had 7 kids (including a set of twins) so I'd call her an expert in the childbirth department. Anyway, we watched a DVD that really had us a bit uncomfortable. It was a DVD with 5 birth stories and the video camera was all up in the process. We actually saw the babies coming out for the 4 that had vaginal births. I mean I was in the room for my Coco-boo's birth, but I didn't see all of that because of our angle and I figured that'd be the angle this camera would take ... ooohhh was I wrong! I don't consider myself a squeamish person, BUT I do know that I'm more modest than most and I didn't enjoy seeing the birth process from that perspective. Funny thing is I had considered allowing my birth to be recorded, but I always thought it would be very the perspective of the support person who doesn't move from my side. Oh well ... Due to St. Joe's configuration, we may have to skip that!

Kiddo News:

Anyway, I don't really have any updates on Kiddo because we haven't had any more (nor do I think we'll be getting another) ultrasound. The doc at my last appointment did say that the baby was in the proper position. However, she also said that Kiddo could always turn again since there's still a bit of room. Kicks are pretty impressive these days, but I contribute that to the fact that room is running out and so pushing on mommy's tummy from all angles may be more enjoyable these days ...
