Baby Shower for Baby John!

The shower that Chris threw for baby John yesterday was so fun and so cute! Thank you again for putting it all together. Chris made the cutest quilt for John and we tied it at the shower, which went really fast. The food was delicious. Jen made an awesome lemon cake that my friends even raved about on their blogs and there was delicious carrot cake and of course the Clark favorite pineapple slush, which I especially loved because I have been craving slurpees lately. The gifts were too nice, everyone gave such wonderful things. Thank you to everyone that came and made me feel so special.

Chris and Gillian gave us an awesome ear thermometer, so we won't have to bother with those bum kinds. Thank you! Nelva and her daughters were so kind to give John two cute outfits, some baby spoons, a car seat toy, and a cute "I love daddy" bib.



My friend Val gave John these award winning bottles(she's having a little boy just two weeks after me) and my friend Kalli who couldn't be at the shower gave John these hand made burp cloths and cute onesies.



My friend Rachelle got me these bath time essentials and some cute clothes from the Children's Place.






My cute sisters-in-law got me these. Tana gave John the cute monkey onesie and washcloths and Jen gave him this "Totally cuter than daddy" shirt and sweat pants and she also made this way chic wipes holder. Nice!



And thanks to Adrianne for leaving these diapers at Chris's house, John will put them to good use. Also, the cute little blanket I took the pictures of the gifts on was made by Jim's mother. Thanks to her too.



It was such a nice afternoon. Lance and I are so excited for John to arrive and meet all his wonderful family, especially his Grandma Clark.

That carrot cake was to die for! I love carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. Yummy.

Me, Abby, Leah, and Lauren sure enjoyed the city park while you ladies were doing whatever you do during baby showers. It was a beautiful day. -Jess

I'm glad you had such a good time. I'm sorry I couldn't be there. I miss a lot of things now. I'm excited for the baby to come.

Congratulations with the baby shower stuff! I'm so sorry I wasn't able to be there! You two will be FABULOUS parents.

It was fun to meet your friends and hang out with the girls. I found it funny that the men stayed in the kitchen until I kicked them out. We love them, but we needed the room. :)
Your reactions to each gift was delightful to see and watch. It helped remind me how anxious and excited I was to have each baby.
We can't wait to meet little John.

You don't just feel special, you are special. And I cannot wait to hold that new son. If he is only half a neat a person as his dad (and his mom) he will be very special, too.
