Woods Clan Baby Shower in Des Moines

We spent this past weekend in Des Moines with Brian's family, and were so blessed to be treated to a beautiful baby shower on Saturday hosted by my sister-in-law Amy and Brian's Aunt Sherri. The afternoon was absolutely lovely - it was so nice to spend time with the Woods Clan Ladies and their family friends. I even got to wear a tierra - it doesn't get much better than that! We started out with introductions and baby advise, and then got to play three really fun games that Amy came up with - it got pretty competitive! Sherri had delicious Petits Fours cake for dessert (Brian is still raving about it) and she even had a cheese and cracker plate just for me. Everyone was so generous with gifts - Baby Woods is one lucky boy - he is so loved and spoiled already! He got a couple weeks worth of cute newborn outfits and even a few matching blankets - he'll be one coordinated little dude. He has all sorts of books to read and toys to play with now and some great bath/first aid items. Brian and I were especially excited to get a few essentials off of the registry. The video monitor, bouncer, and diaper genie will come in so handy! I'm thinking we might have to test these out on Bella ;) A huge thank you to Amy & Sherri for hosting! We're so lucky to have an amazing group of family/friends in Des Moines - your support means the world to us!
