today, 3 of my closest friends threw us a baby shower. it was delightful! we had a wonderful meal and wonderful conversation. quinn (all of us) were showered with lots of diapers (this is almost too helpful to describe!), toys and goodies, and a gift card to get quinn a deluxe swing, should he like the basic swing i scored off craigslist for 40 bucks. i know from others' experience that a baby swing can be the biggest trick in the book for fussy or hard-to-get-to-sleep babies. but, i also know that babies can detest the swing. so, we will try out the 40-dollar swing, and if quinn likes it (and/or needs it), he will be treated to a super deluxe version. otherwise, he will be treated to other super deluxe items, thanks to his aunties.
we are blessed.

Aww, I'm sorry I missed it, but glad you had fun. Will call you in the next day or so to pay you a quick visit... hopefully before someone decides to make an appearance! ;)
What a nice gift! I hope you are doing as well as can be at this late date, and that your little one makes his appearance very, very soon.
