Showering Babies

Aunt Vikki (Mommy's BFF Vikki) had her baby shower for baby Lily Victoria due May 9. Okay, those details are a little fuzzy, but I think they're right! Vik's BFF Melissa hosted the party at her home, her son Tanner joined us halfway through so Elle had a playmate. Tanner is our friend who is CANCER-FREE now!!! (And Melis and family will be bringing home baby brother Chase today! who was born 9 weeks early!) Anyway, Elle and I went of course, and got Vikki and Lily adorable clothes, three pair of shoes, and cloth diaper needs! Here are pics from her shower:

The Bat Show

Yesterday, I picked up Elliot from Ronnie's house and brought her back to my school. We actually picked up a Wendy's lunch, and ate it at my school. After lunch, we went to an assembly my school was offering, showing Chinese culture, a Chinese acrobat show. Elliot was very excited to see the "bat" show like the bird show at Disney World. As the acrobats performed, she kept looking at the ceiling looking for the bats. Once she realized it was just going to be people, she got very excited by what she was watching. Between the two performances, she got to meet, talk to, and high-five the performers. I wasn't sure how much attention she was paying to the show, but she came home and told Daddy and later Nana by phone what she saw in quite a detailed account! I wish I had had a camera and could have gotten a picture of her with the acrobats, but alas, no. :)
