A Shower for Reese

We are so blessed to have a family that thinks of us, supports us, and loves us enough to recognize every milestone in our life. Granny, Nana, & Tia threw Tyson and I shower for our little Reesey Cup. The main things that we needed were girl clothes, pink blankets, hair bows (I am told this is a must), and of course, diapers. We had a small shower with just family and a few friends here in Muleshoe at Nana & Papaw's. We were overwhelmed with how much our family provided for us and our little girl. Thank you to all of you for making our second baby just as exciting and special as our dear Rylan is to us.

There are a lot of pictures, and I will explain more about our shower through them.
This is my Granny, whom I adore. I was so happy she and my Papa came to celebrate our upcoming arrival with us.
Each hostess had a job; Tia - invitations (which were beautiful) and games (which were very cute and fun, even for the men folk who were at the shower), Nana - provided all the food and hosted at her house (which was delicious and perfect for so many people), Granny - who did all the decorations and worked in collaboration with Tia on the games.

My momma chose to do Fall themed decorations, which was perfect since it is fall and pumpkins are in abundance. She had pumpkins with pacifiers, and little punkins everywhere, along with some pumpkin pictures from our maternity shoot. It was really cute.
One of the many sweet gifts we got with Reese's name on it. I love embroidered gifts for babies, so sweet.
I love that Tys got to open such cute, sweet, frilly gifts for his daughter. He kept saying, "so this is what girl stuff is all about."
Little girl clothes are so different than boys' clothes. Most things are pink and frilly. When I did a load of laundry with all of Reese's stuff, the lent actually came out pink (just like Tia said it would).
Another example of the frills that girls come with. Too sweet!
I was so happy that the grandmothers and great grandmothers didn't forget about our boy. Rylan also had gifts to open at the shower. I loved this because I felt like it let him know that he is still very loved by everyone.
Tyson and I posing at the end of our shower. I am almost 38 weeks in this picture (like you can't tell).
Some of Reese's goodies!
More of Reese's goodies, she is one blessed little girl.
We played three games, and all three were perfect. They included the men and didn't make them do any girly stuff.  Good job Tia & Granny.
Granny, Nana, Me & Tia.
Thank you all three for making this shower perfect, you are all so special to us, and we are so grateful for the roles that you each play in our lives, and especially in our children's lives. We love ya'll and couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening.

Until the next post................which will hopefully be introducing you all to our little girl!
