babyshower

my lifegroup friends have been really thoughtful and they organised a baby shower for me on 20/10/2007. Below are some pics of the day's event. they have secretly decorated the venue up and needless to say i was speechless when I arrived.

I was 36 weeks +2 days and I have definitely swollen up.

here, i am in the church kitchen doing last minute prep for the food.

the familiar tart -i made 3 flavours this time, brocoli, cauliflower and asparagus.




2 games were played , musical chair. there was a dressed up preggermom but he's ousted out in no times. the people were so competitive. the next game was passing the pacifier with a pen..again, the women won 3-0.

after the games, it was sharing time. usually, the baby shower is a women's only affair over here. this time, the men also get to give their input.

then it was opening the pressie's time. i receiveda good variety of gifts ranging from baby clothings and blankies and parenting book, bopster pillow etc.




special thanks to these ladies here, from left Jennifer (pastor's wife) who led the sharing, Wynne, who gave me many good advice since he just had Ryan about 17 months ago and i will be goign to the same hospital and maternity unit as W. Then it's Elly who decorated the place tastefully, and Candace and Cora who helped with organising the events and games and lastly Jacqui (Cora's DIL) not in pic who also helped with decorating and providing baby music.
