*4/4/09- Couples' Shower
We had a fabulous time at our couples' shower two weeks ago. Hosts Jamie & Jill and Jared & Carrie provided an awesome meal (two different kinds of lasagna!), which allowed everyone the chance to visit and catch up. Then came the gift opening, and everyone was so generous:
baby bathtub and dino toy, from Jamie & Jill
sound & light toy, book, blankets, "udderly cute" onesie and other baby gear from Jared & Carrie
baskets, books, paci clips, pirate rubber duckie and outlet covers from Ryan & Becca
Then, in lieu of your "typical" shower games, we all spent the remainder of the evening playing Rock Band on Wii. Yes, that's right. And we are not ashamed to admit it. : )
First, the guys took the stage......

After a startling rendition of Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer", it became clear that the ladies had to show them how it was done by rockin' out to Blondie (and two of us are pregnant, mind you):

Dear Sprout: Let these next two photos stand as proof that your parents were at least a little cool once.

Thanks to our hosts and guests for such an awesome shower......we had the best time!
* More Gifts for our little Sprout
We seriously have the best family and friends ever, because gifts for Sprout keep rollin' in. Colleen gave us a couple of sleepers, Mom W. gave us a Diaper Genie (and yes, it is quite magical), Tanya gave us an adorable giraffe planter to place in his nursery....
Val gave him an cute onesie and sock set, plus a stack of books for his library (including her published juvenile sports books....awesome! I made her sign them.)
....and Judy gave us a great cookbook, as well as knitting a cute panda hat to keep Sprout warm next winter! 
Thank you again to everyone.....your generosity is astounding and VERY MUCH appreciated! : )
Love,
Farrah, Jeff & Sprout
