{Generous friends & baby goods}

I am still waiting on more pictures of my AMAZING baby shower to be sent over, but in the meantime, although it is the season of GIVING, not receiving, I thought I would share some of the AWESOME treasures that I received as gifts at my baby shower. Obviously I don't have my baby in my arms yet, so my L-O-V-E for these items is yet to be 100% determined (depending on how he likes everything), but I am SO excited to try them all out and am stunned by the love and generosity that my friends have shown us.

To start (and this doesn't really go along with my statement above because I don't have to have my little guy to know that I already LOVE these items), my sweet and talented friend Cassie made me two amazingly adorable gifts....

First being this ADORABLE crate....
...and second being this very wise-looking Owl....
She shipped them all the way from Maryland, and they got here just in time for the shower. SO awesome!!! She is too sweet for words and I cannot wait to incorporate these items that were made with love into Oliver's nursery. :) Thank you Cassie!!!!

For these other items, they were on my gift registry because they either got great reviews or I just plain liked them (all images/products are from Babies R'Us).....

1) The Fisher Price Papsan Cradle Swing - My Little Lamb

(that baby looks so cozy!!)

2) Tommee Tippee bottles & accessories (several friends use these and LOVE them, so I thought I would give them a shot)
3.) The BOON Frog Pod Bath Toy Scoop and Storage...

4) The Summer Brand Video Monitor
5) The "Boppy" Flying Circus Play Gym...
6). The Skip-Hop Wise Owl Stroller Toy...

7) The Combi Pod Bouncer-Bee bouncy seat....

(This thing is adorable, and you can also hook up your ipod to the back for some tunes! I can't wait to put him in it!)

8. And the ever infamous "Gymnic Rody Hopping Horse in Orange" with the rocking horse attachable base...

(He is Sooooo cute and he looks great in the nursery already ;) )

I received a ton of other really nice gifts, but those are some of the cutest ones that I wanted to share.

I also got quite a bit of cute clothes, shoes, socks, etc., but I will wait until he is here and wearing the goods to show you all of that. Although, possibly my favorite item (in this category) are the baby TOMS that my sister bought...

The Tiny TOMS - Black Flying Machines:
They are sooo stinking cute!!!! I know tiny babies don't really need to wear shoes, but still.....could-not-resist!! :)

I am such a lucky girl and Oliver is a VERY lucky (and stylin') little boy!! I am 31 weeks now, and we are counting down the days until we get to meet him!!

Happy Thursday! xo
