Lovin' on my Brenna Girl

Time continues to speed by around here--Friday we are moving all the stuff out of our house, the following Thurs. we are headed to see the parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends that we have missed so much. Needless to say, LOTS to do! So, going to try to do a couple of catch up posts today and then I will probably be MIA again for a while...you'll forgive me, won't you?!

A few weeks after Brenna was born the sweet ladies at my church had a baby shower for my lil' sweetie pie. It was a wonderful, relaxing time of food, fellowship and fun. Just what I needed to help me get through all those tiring days of paperwork.

All dressed up and ready to go!

No, they are really not that lumpy! LOL

Presents!

2 tiny sweaters

All the pretties

Bib Magnet Souvenirs

Yummy Cake

My dear friends

Candy "pacifiers"

Beautiful Brenna

One of my dearest friends was not able to make it to the shower because she was dealing with her own sick baby, but she surprised me by bringing this to church--

It looks like a ginormous frosted cupcake made of diapers and 2 super soft fleece receiving blankets. Then it was decorated with tiny hair clips and ponytail "sprinkles". So cute!

And this sweater is the most precious thing of all...my friend Yanel's grandma made this sweater, along with some blue ones, for her future great-grandchildren before she passed away. But, so far, Yanel has 2 boys and no girls and so she wanted me to use it for Brenna. Isn't that super sweet?! I was very humbled that she wanted to share such a special gift from her grandmother with me and to keep my little girl snuggly warm. Such a kind and giving spirit! The Lord has truly knit our hearts together and I will sorely miss her and all my sweet friends at our church here. They have been so patient with us and have been such a blessing to me and my family. I always say that they are my Argentine family and they will always hold a special place in my ♥.
