Baby Glam’s Shower!
I can’t even BELIEVE that we are so close to meeting Baby Glam! My sweet friends Dani and Caroline came all the way from DC to throw me and baby a shower on Saturday. It was so beautiful, with flowers, balloons, cocktails/mocktails, delicious food, and most importantly, the most incredible group of women that came to shower us!
When I saw my beloved DC friends, I involuntarily teared up. I could blame it on the hormones, but it touched me to know that they would actually get on a plane and come all the way to Chicago just to do something so nice for me. I’m boohoo-ing again right now just thinking about it.
The hardest part about leaving DC was saying goodbye to these girls. Like who even makes best friends in 2 years?! That being said, the women I have met in Chicago embraced me with grace and open arms, making Chicago feel immediately like home. It’s not easy to let in the “new kid” so I’m totally in awe of how many really great friends and family came to support and love on baby glam on Saturday! I’m a lucky girl.
I can’t forget to mention that my parents also came to town from Cleveland! My rockstar father (I mentioned how handy he is in the past) spent all day finishing my dopey nursery paint job, assembling the baby furniture, and mom helped me organize and schlep. Stay tuned for a nursery update soon!
