Xander's Wilmot Shower


On Sunday, March 2nd, we headed from Sisseton to Wilmot for a wonderful shower.

Becky, Arne's wife had called about doing a shower for him and we were lucky enough to have an open weekend while Rachel and Carter will still home. Seth and Meredith were also home, so it was nice to see them too.

Around 2 everyone started showing up and there was quite a crowd. Many people from Sisseton came, mainly from the clinic, and all the relatives on my side from Wilmot were there, and some from even further away.

The ladies played a few games, guessing the baby food, a baby letter game and some others while I entertained (or tried to keep Carter busy) in the basement.

There was lots of food of course, all good food, so no one went away hungry that day.

After lunch it was time to open all of Xander's gifts. Of course he was being held by various people the whole time so he was in a great mood.

We got tons of great gifts from everybody, lots of things we can use now plus a bunch of clothes for later. It's nice to get clothes that will work for later because he is growing so fast!

Thanks again to everyone that came and celebrated another special day with us.
