Even though grandpas don't got to baby showers, Sunday for me was a busy and exciting one just getting ready and seeing everyone else's excitement for your arrival. No alarm clock needed!!!! Up at 4:45 as always but with things to accomplish before church. I had a pot of chili to prepare for the girls to eat an early lunch. Also, dad, Bryce, Jeremy and whoever else was gonna stop by for NFL games while the girls were away at your shower. Got the chili ready with some of my homegrown jalapenos and tomatoes included. I had to load the van so the girls could make a quick move after church to set up for the 2:00 event. Everything got loaded except for the 40 or more cupcakes that grandma Beth picked up Saturday at her famous bakery in Muncie, Concannons.
It was kinda funny that your mom wanted to drive the car but dad insisted on bringing his truck. Good choice dad!!! After the shower the back of dad's truck was FULL of gifts. God is good with the amazing friends and family he has placed in your life. People that don't do from obligation, but, are there for you out of LOVE. We are blessed and you will be soon. Thanks to everyone who took time from their weekend to come and share this special moment with Jessica. Grandma Z and great grandma V came all of the way from Michigan and then took Mom and Dad to Lunch. Cousins from South Bend and Kendallville were there, Great grandma Armano came in from Florida for the weekend, college friends from northern Indiana and many more to list. You won't be without people visiting for a while once you decide to grace us all with your presence.
After the shower mom thought she would have me touch you in her belly. She said it was your BUTT that was pushing out of her side. I felt a bump, really couldn't define it as a butt, however, it probably was....... :) It becomes more exciting and real in times like those. I keep telling them you would be here by my guessed date. I even got down to mom's tummy and whispered in a deep grandpa voice to you. ***November 11th*** . ahahahahahaha. Funny Funny man grandpa is :) The sooner the better!!!!!! Mom wants you to follow her planned schedule so schooling and all will be easy to plan. She will soon realize you have a plan of your own!!!!! I'm sure she will adjust to YOUR schedule of things soon enough...and then dad adjust his schedule?? He doesn't know what's gonna hit him.............BUT ALL IS GOOD!!!
All in all... Another successful pre-celebration for YOU!!! Can't wait Taylor *hugs**
It was a very fun day! Can't wait to hear that Taylor is here!
