Shower Shots!

So...on Saturday afternoon Momma and Christopher arrived at Nanna & Poppa's house all bright eyed and ready for a party! Well.... Momma looks bright eyed anyway...the little guy -- maybe not quite so much, but he looks comfy anyway. We had supper and visited for a while until bed-time. Momma and Chris were up a couple of times during the night, so he could have a snack, but over-all had a fairly good night. Apparently the Munchkin liked Poppa's cradle just fine and slept well. In the morning we had breakfast and got Chris ready for his big event. Then Poppa had a little chat with him, while Momma & I got cleaned up and ready.

Momma, Chris and Nanna hastened over for a quick stop to see Great Gramma Robert and then made our way out to Granny Maureen's vacation station. We were greeted at the door by Granny & Auntie Tricia (Gramps was there too, but didn't hang around to get his picture taken).

Chris had a bit of lunch while the rest of us organized snacks for the older folks and got the coffee & tea ready to roll. Soon people started arriving and waiting for their chance to visit with the guest of honour...like Auntie Denise. After an interval of arriving guests - including Great Grandma Duffy, Gramma Mayhew and Great, Great Aunt Peggy, amoung others - it was deemed time to have snacks. Granny Maureen and Auntie Cecile had made ample amounts of appetizing snacks and some pretty yummy desserts too. Not to mention a beautiful cake emblazoned with the name of our guest of honour who just kept on snoozing while we all partook of the feast. I don't even remember all the presents - there were soooo many. Momma had a great time opening them all - while Christopher snoozed happily on someone's lap - didn't seem to matter whose! In due time Dadda arrived to help finish opening the last of the presents and load them in the car for the trip home. It was so nice of him! The guests slowly took their leave and Momma & Dadda took the little Munchkin and headed for home. A good time was had by all....and nobody was very hungry for supper. Momma spent all day Monday sorting through the stuff and putting it away...and still had some left for Tuesday!
