Showered with Love

What a weekend! We're still recovering from the excitement of our baby shower, thrown by my amazing friends and hosted by Foodie is the New Forty in her lovely home. It was overwhelming to have so many friends in one place at once and the love in the room was palpable. Not only were we showered with generous baby gifts that will help us take care of, dress, and read to our baby girl, but we ate lots of yummy food with a pop culture and Asian flare.

Pop culture cookies for everyone! A sweet favor.

A popcorn buffet, Asian noodles and chicken lettuce wraps, piles of dumplings and other dim sum treats kept us all satisfied and happy. Even the selection of Dry sodas and desserts were chosen with our tastes in mind. It was all so touching!

It was also delightful to have some family present. It was humbling to have my aunt and cousins take the very long car ride to Austin, and my sister flew in from Philadelphia even though her schedule is crazy. It's a weekend Chris and I will never forget and we are so, so grateful! I'm excited to fold baby clothes and start unboxing all her tiny little things, as well as to write thank you notes.
