Babies Galore.

I know so many people who are getting ready to have babies. My best friend from home, Janie, is due on December 21st and she’s having a boy. Our friend, Steph, is due December 3rd and could pop anytime now. She’s getting a surprise on the sex of the baby. Yesterday, I went to a baby shower for our friend, Kim, and she’s due in February and having a boy also. But, like 5 people at the shower yesterday were also pregnant. I’m also reading a book right now called Little Earthquakes, about 4 women who have just had babies. Tons of babies everywhere! It much be the age or something.

Anyway, the shower yesterday was so beautiful. She got a ton of gifts and great things for the new little boy to be. Furniture, swings, clothes, blankets, bottles, anything you can imagine. I cannot believe how MUCH stuff a baby needs! It’s crazy. We had a luncheon at the Chart House which overlooks the Hudson River and the Manhattan skyline. It was a clear blue day and absolutely beautiful. We had yummy food and chocolate lava cake for dessert. I scraped my plate clean on that one. It took most of the afternoon, but I was happy to be surround by friends and happiness. I am really looking forward to meeting the new baby.
