A Shower for Rachel!

About two weeks ago, Jason, Caleb and I went to PA for a visit with my parents. While we were there, our family threw a baby shower for us! This was a "pink shower", as we are all getting excited about the arrival of our little girl Rachel. Here are some pics from the party and some from just hanging out with Grammy and Pops during our time in York.

The shower was thrown at Red Lobster and just included our family (with one exception...my Mom's best friend Mrs. Bride came too)!

The two masterminds behind the shower with my parents, my Godmothers Aunt Sue and Aunt Ann (Aunt Ann is the one holding Caleb). They are always so sweet to their Goddaughter! :)

Here's a cute shot...Aunt Sue, my cousin Sue Ann and my Mom all together.

Some other family pictures above and below. Most of the Debes family was able to attend, but we missed those of you who couldn't be there!

Here's Uncle Matt with Mrs. Bride above.

And of course, Caleb got spoiled at this shower too. He got a balloon, a new truck, books, stuffed animals and more from several of the family members to keep him entertained all party long!

We were blessed with so many cute gifts, especially with lots of clothes, which we definitely needed! The adorable dress above was from John, Alexandra and Katrina who couldn't be there. Thanks guys!

Aunt Sue and Uncle Roge put together a clothes line of onesies with cute/funny sayings on them. We are totally set with colored onesies now as you can imagine!

This dress above was from Uncle Matt. I can't wait to see Rachel in it!

As the outfit says, Jason is berry sweet!

We got two first dolls for Rachel too (you can never start too early with those). This one was from Grammy and Pops!

Here's Pops and his twin (Val's Uncle Harry). Can you tell which one is Pops? He is actually the one on the right. Uncle Harry was carrying Caleb around for a while, and we were all wondering if Caleb thought he was with Pops!

Here's a sweet shot with Val's Nana. We were so glad to get to see her at the shower!

Finally, here's Uncle Matt and Caleb playing as the party was ending. Thank you so much to the whole family for throwing us such a great shower! What a blessing everything is to our family! We love you all!

Later in the weekend we went to Val's old elementary school to play on their playgrounds. Caleb was especially taken with this orange truck above.

It didn't take Caleb long to get re-acquainted with the pups (he saw them at Christmas time). He really enjoyed petting Rowdy and Roxy!

Pops and Grammy also took Caleb on a walk one day.

Finally, right before we left on Monday, Jason and I ran out to do a few errands, so Grammy watched Caleb and they did some coloring together with his new giant coloring book and markers. He looks super cute in that smock doesn't he?
