We made her name (to hang on the wall in her room) as a gift for their baby girl...I started cutting out the letters on the scroll saw in our garage, and then it started acting funny, so Rob checked it out, all that vibration had stripped out a screw, so he ran to the hardware store and got a new one, replaced it and meanwhile I was inside decorating cupcakes and stuff...Rob finished it. Then Rob, Hannah, Olivia and I sat on the front porch and painted each letter pink.
She got a Boppy pillow with cherries on it from Marina and her Godson, Michael. Hannah took notes of who gave what gifts, so Mary can write "thank you" notes.
I have a list of the gifts that we got when I was expecting Hannah, in her baby book, we still look back at that and remember all those kind and generous people. ♥
My 2 year old niece, Natalia, has a gift for Aunt Mary.
Paul's mom, Luba, with Mary...and the best picture of her baby bump so far. Kathy gave her that yellow chewbeads necklace, it is a teething necklace! Isn't that so fashionable and cool?
Opening more gifts...A snowsuit...I know she'll need that in Canada in the winter!
Cupcakes, fresh fruit and baby carriage cookies that my sister, Susanna, made...
The back of a quilt that Susanna made...and below, you can see the front!
Bethany knit her a very soft white hat...everyone wanted to feel it.
Thank you to everyone for your prayers as my sister and her husband wait to welcome their baby, Elizabeth into this world!
