When: February 24, 2007 in Homewood IllinoisMy Mom and sister Cathy threw me a bumble bee themed baby shower. I remember being so nervous about flying up that late in my pregnancy (literally a week before you can't fly anymore) and having flight attendants ask me not to go into labor while on the flight. I have to laugh though looking at this photo because we did a game where you cut a piece of yarn and had to guess how big my belly was (like I didn't already feel like a beached whale). My niece Lorren won I think, but she cheated, she measured it around her waist and then eyeballed my belly. It was such a fun day with great food, which let's face it was all I was concerned with, and great friends/family. Thank you again Mom and Cathy for throwing such a great shower for me!

Great memory!
ReplyDeletethat's awesome! i'm bummed that I didn't measure my triplet belly at the end. I didn't want to know then, but it would be fun to know now!
ReplyDeletePs, I know lots of people from homewood. My grandparents and Mom used to go to Homewood Full Gospel Church.
You're a braver woman than me. I refused all embarrassing games etc at my baby shower. I was 29w at mine and would've bitten the head of anyone who tried to measure my waistline lol
ReplyDeleteI think you look LOVELY!!! Not at ALL "whale" like!
ReplyDeleteWhy ARE baby shower games all so "big mama" oriented?
Thank you for playing along with Way Back When-esday, Amanda. I hope you'll play often!
