Well, it's over! Some 30 or so people in our house with great food, silly games, top-notch gifts and some really amusing gag gifts.
Josh didn't figure out the surprise man-shower the entire time. The shower was at 1pm and he didn't realize that he was having a party and getting some attention until noon! We made biscuits and gravy in the morning for everyone who was setting up, and then the three of us just sat back and got spoiled. Uncle Alex tried out our video and taped the shower - we'll have to look at that soon, and maybe post some clips if there are some good ones (an hour or two of material to sort through). Meanwhile, I recommend visiting Kayla Lehto's Facebook page for shower photos, nobody else has posted any yet - I love hers, there are some good ones of her visiting us too. I'll post just a few shots of hers here and everyone can see some more 7 month belly pics. I'll hold off on posting shower photos until some more are posted to other people's Facebook accounts.
Alex has become even more active and we can see pointy limbs scraping and wiggling and making my belly move around. He doesn't move much when I'm talking, laughing or moving, but the moment I sit down and relax, he celebrates. I don't mind, since it doesn't keep me awake. He's around 3 pounds now, which is pretty nuts since that means he has to double or triple in size over the next 9 weeks! We have tons of stuff to unpack, wash and store/display in his room, so that should keep us busy. We've just got a few things to buy and a load of clothes to inherit from the cousins.
Thanks again to everyone who helped, especially Heather, Jennifer and my mom!
