One day my sister in law Lauren called and asked me if she could take me shopping. Well after a morning of trying to keep up with Matt and him wanting to get the house clean. I was very ready to go shopping. We had been gone for a while. Matt started calling my phone and wanting me to come home. The guys wanted us to go with them to Cabela's. I was so tired I didn't want to go. I told him to just go without us. I told Lauren let's keep shopping. They'll be gone. They won't know we're still gone. Well her phone started ringing. I was getting annoyed why don't they take no for an answer. Well Lauren was talked into coming home. I will admit I was a little disappointed. I was having fun. When we got home. I honestly didn't notice extra cars. I just assumed they were for the neighbors. I walked into my house. Came around to the living room and SURPRISE! Matt's sisters and mom had put together a surprise shower for me. It was so sweet. Matt had invited some of my new friends from my ward, my family, and friends. I had a lot of people there for not knowing about it.
I remember I got a bunch of blankets and receiving blankets. I kept thinking what am I going to do with this many? Well I have advice to any first time mom that may ever read this. You will need that many blankets. New babies pee, poop, and puke on everything. And when you are tired you don't have the energy or time to keep washing the same 5 blankets over and over. So keep all the blankets you get.
Same thing about diapers. If you get a ton of new born size or size 1's you are rolling. Don't take them back. You will need all the diapers you can get. The safe thing to do is wait until after the baby is here for a month to start taking anything back.
