Let's Get the Party Started!

Welcome to the online baby shower for Cali and the Snork! Leave a comment to say hello and wish Cali congratulations.

I got us a picture of some snacks. Enjoy!

(I think I am hilarious. Cali finds these creepy because of how much they must have been touched. I personally have consumed two of these and I find them delicious. And look, I sprang for the one with the chocolate!)

Hmm - I'm with Cali on the fruit creepiness. I brought some hummus and carrot sticks with me though, so I'll tuck into those - help yourselves.

Cali,
Sometimes words cannot express true feelings. I am so very excited and happy that you are finally going to become mommy to the Snork. I have followed your journey for some time and can hardly wait to meet your "lil guy". Congrats!!

Just a lurker but wanted to wish Cali a big Congratulations! Lots and lots of warm wishes on the upcoming arrival of your little one :)

(I love those fruit things - yum! - but they are super expensive. I'm going to try to make my own one of these days...)

Meg said...

Cali, I'm so happy for you :)
I can't wait to see photos of Snork's not so little bitty baby feet!

I'll pass on the fruit because I'm also weirded out by how much they need to be fondled while being assembled.

Congrats, Cali!

These fruit bouquets are the creepiest!

Cali, I am so very excited for Snork's grand entrance, for this dream to finally be flesh and blood real. You deserve every speck of happiness that comes from this.

Much love to you. xoxo

I'm hope I'm not late to the shower (on California time). Happy shower day, Cali! I've been following along for a while now, and I'm really so happy for you. Can't wait to "meet" Snork.

Having some fruit on a stick to celebrate with you!

Elowyn said...

Yum. Pass the pineapple! The ooey-gooey-touched-by-someone-other-than-me pineapple! :)

Congrats, Snork-momma!

Fruit on a stick. Add chocolate and I'm a happy woman, grossess of finger-fondled fruit be damned. :)

Cali I'm so glad you are getting all the fun hooha that comes with having a baby. We don't "do" showers in Australia....well, only occasionally and never on the scale of our Amercian friends! Our gifts are usually just little items, and are more just about having a tea-party for the girls. I think I've only ever been to one, thank goodness as being on the IF rollercoaster for so many years I would not have handled them very well I'm sure. Our present giving is once the baby arrives and of course by then it's too late for the big ticket items! Usual pressies are cute clothing and soft toys.
Hope you are enjoying your cybershower.

oh forgot to add, that I love the look of the fruit basket, I bet it's yummy to eat....oh yes with dipping chocolate too please!! But I too am grossed out about the idea of the fingers touching, and for how long the fruit has been cut and exposed.... mind you if I knew the person who made it and knew it was super fresh...then I'd eat it ALL, oh, after taking a pic first of course!

Sending all the love in the world from all of us in the O Family. We love you, Snork, and can't wait to wrap you in all our love on the outside!!

Lollipop Goldstein said...

I didn't think they were creepy until you just said that...and now I'm going to think twice about edible arrangements...

Happy shower, Cali!
