More Baby Shower madness - Canberra style



















Saturday was spent celebrating the impending birth of my little one with my Canberra buddies. Sixteen friends in my tiny loungeroom was rather overwhelming - especially with the loud bunch of tourism buddies in tow - but it was a lovely afternoon spent with great friends and good food. Once again, my little one was blessed with so many lovely gifts which will come in handy once he/she arrives and I thank everyone for being so generous. Guests present were Donna, Fiona, Shea, Deb, Kerri, KJ, Jo, Louise, Bianca, Rachel, Carissa, Kate and Angela. Mel also came down from Sydney to join in the fun again and was a big help with icing baby cupcakes, being the official photographer and doing loads of washing up! Grandad Jeff was a big help with cleaning up the pergola so we could enjoy the nice weather outside, and very kindly took Chloe and Ruby for a big walk around the lake to keep them occupied. Nana Christine was also a marvellous help with cleaning up and making more delicious food. Thanks to everyone for making Baby Shower Mark2 such a memorable occasion.


PS. Thanks also for the very inventive suggestions for bub's names - I'm seriously considering Persephone, Eggbert and Gertrude!
