How lucky can a girl be? Over the last few weeks, I had not one, but two baby showers... add that to the shower my parents threw us in Houston, and we've had three total! We are very fortunate for these blessings and totally feel the love with this pregnancy.
Shower #2 was thrown by Khona, Neena, Hema and Nicole and hosted at Hema and Mahesh's house on 10/17/09. The food, decor and atmosphere were perfect... they did a wonderful job. Thanks to them and all of our friends who were able to make it! Swapna and Amit flew in from San Fransisco and Anu drove down from Ft. Worth. Everyone else were Austinites. The games were not the typical baby shower games, and one involved beer bottles, which I got a lot of questions about from my family... "why are you holding a beer bottle? hmmm?". Anyway, we had a fabulous shower!
Shower #3 was a surprise shower for me... it was thrown by the ladies of the ICA (Indian
Catholic Association) on 10/25/09. Shel was in on the surprise, and I was genuinely shocked when what I thought was a small dinner party at Elsa's house turned out to be something entirely different. I looked totally casual, even though Shel tried to hint at me to dress up a bit more... I was like, "why? it's just dinner"... anyway, I should have paid closer attention. We had a great time... those ladies are pros at throwing showers... everyone pitched in for the potluck style dinner. The games were quick but fun, and the gift opening was a mad rush since it was a Sunday evening and everyone had to get home to rest up for the upcoming week.
All in all... our three showers were great... all different and all fun in their own ways!
