My girl friends threw me the best baby shower ever. The party was just an absolute success. I could tell that they had put a lot of thought and planning into the whole thing, because they pulled it off without a hitch.

After everyone arrived, we did the basic introductions where everyone introduced themselves and said how it was that they knew me. Then we started the games. The first one was one where everyone was instructed to never say “baby.” We were all given a yarn necklace with five safety pins. Every time someone said baby, the woman who called her out got one of her safety pins. We also did the one where they guess my tummy size using yarn. These women all thought I was bigger than I am, darn it! The real hoot was bottle races though. All these grown women were sucking on baby bottles to see who could finish first. I couldn’t stop laughing!

Then it was time for the gifts. They were just so thoughtful. One of my friends gave me a water distiller which I really appreciated. Another one of my friends who is a homeopathic practitioner brought an organic baby Moses basket which will come in very handy. All things said, I will remember that party forever.
