Nolan's Shower, Day One!

Our wonderful, sweet friends Jennifer, Lisa, Michelle, and Jenny coordinated something very special for our new addition, little Nolan!  They coordinated a "virtual" shower for this week and invited our closest friends and out-of-town family to participate by sending wishes/gifts/greetings for Nolan throughout the week. 

Day One photos!

The "It's a Boy!" pin that the girls sent for me to wear to work tomorrow!  Another surprise, which will be here tomorrow for Day One, is cupcakes from a local bakery!!!  How exciting!!!


The boxes that have come so far!!  Wow!


The boxes all unwrapped!!


From Aunt Kala, a wonderful start to a good financial future and some super cute pillow covers :)  Thank you, Kala!!!!


A sleep machine and pacifier or "binky" clips from Uncle Q.  :)  Thanks, John Q!!!


Part of Nolan's gift from his great-grandma, the high chair Nolan will use.  The other gifts are on back-order but will be here before Nolan arrives!  Thank you, Great Grandma!!!


Uncle Flounder sent Nolan's baby monitor and a great, super handy accessory for Nolan's diaper bag--a reusable wipes case by Skip Hop!  Thank you, Flounder!!!!


And from Aunt Sam and Uncle Greg--something Nolan will get lots and lots of use out of--a bottle warmer and cooler!!  Thank you Aunt Sam and Uncle Greg!!!  We can't wait for when it's time for YOUR baby shower soon!


From Nolan's Grandma Fifi, a great lightweight city stroller!  The picture is off a little, but it's a pretty tangerine color (reminds Josh of Auburn) and we can't wait to take it out of the box!  Grandma Fifi (and Grandpa) also are sending Nolan his entire set of Avent bottles from newborn size to when it's time to swap over to sippy cups.  Thank you so, so much!!!


Uncle Baby Bear and Mary Peyton sent Nolan a super-fancy bathtub!  It only lets in clean water for the baby and Nolan will love it :)  Thank you both very much!!!


Nolan's owl toys from his great-grandma! They will be here soon!!! :)


Thank you, everyone, so very much.  Day One was wonderful--and I can't believe there is, as I'm told, more to come tomorrow!!

We are blessed and thankful beyond words for friends and family like you all.  Nolan will be one lucky little boy to know you.
