It's Raining, It's Pouring

Chris and I had our virtual baby shower last night, and we again are overwhelmed by the blessings of our family and friends! We are so appreciative of all the gifts that have been sent to Josiah. We had LOTS of fun playing the games with you. Chris used his new video camera to record the fun we were having. The file will be too big to download on the website, but we will put some still pictures in an album for you to see.

We are so thankful for all the gifts that were given to us. Josiah's nursery is ready to put together now that we have his rocking chair, bedding set, mobile and hamper. Now, we just need to find him a nursery! : ) We are praying that it will be sooner than later, but know that God will have us move when He is ready.

We look forward to dressing Josiah in all the adorable clothing that we received. It's hard to image someone that small fitting into it! We can't wait to cuddle him in his new blankets and to play with him on some of the bigger floor blankets we received. Bath time will be a big splash when we use his new bath seat and wash clothes we received. I'm sure that Josiah will get use out of his new swing when he has his "wake time" (aka-crying time). We look forward to putting him in his bebe seat as he learns to sit up and when we have special picnics in the living room on rainy days. Daddy looks forward to reading the new books we got--Josiah already loves reading time with Daddy. I look forward to when Daddy uses the bottle warmer so Mommy can have a night here and there without having to get up! : ) We look forward to worshiping with Josiah with his new worship/lullaby CD and capturing memories in his photo album and journal. We also appreciate all the gift cards we received. I'm sure there will be plenty of things we will need to purchase--um, more diapers--after he is born. : )

Again, we want to thank you for celebrating Josiah's upcoming arrival and helping us to prepare for our precious little gift. You will never know how truly grateful we are to all of you!
