Way back at the beginning of April one of my very best, life-long friends had her very first baby shower. Jeremy and I drove to Peoria so that I could be participate in her shower with her. It was at a very old historic house in a historic district of Peoria. A funny thing happened as we were trying to get there. We had just left Babies R US after getting her a gift and I told Siri on my iphone the address of the shower. We drove around, got on the freeway, crossed a bridge into East Peoria and thought the whole time it was really weird. Right at 1:00 when it was supposed to start, Siri says: "You have arrived at your destination." We were in a rundown part of town, next to the railroad tracks at a building that said, Rick's Towing or something like that. What a strange place for a baby shower!?!?!? LOL! Nope, I had said Randolph street instead of Randolph Drive. So, we had to drive back across town and finally made it! haha!
Anyway, Jeremy dropped me off and I had a great time visiting with Tuesday, Alison (pictured above, Tuesday's niece who was due a couple of weeks before me), and Tuesday's sisters! She also had a ton of friends there from Peoria.
She got a crap ton of stuff too!
It was awesome to get to spend time with her on her special day. She and Chad had to really go through a lot to get pregnant. And it finally happened with invitro fertilization. And as I think I wrote about already, she ended up having her baby, Kylie, 8 weeks early!! But, her baby is doing wonderfully and so is she!!
