The Los Angeles Baby Shower

Posted by Stuart on 01/12 at 05:26 PM

Today we had a wonderful baby shower thrown for us in Los Angeles by our great friends Irma, Gary, Jason, Gail, Will, Kim and Michael!  To say we have an abundance of riches is an understatement!  Our little Quentin promises to be the best-dressed boy in the neighborhood.  We have joked that he has more clothes than his daddies do! 

While we loved all of the amazing gifts (many purchased through our friend Schuyler’s new company, http://www.preshbaby.com), the most important part of the shower is being with people who are going to be a part of our little boy’s life.  We are so blessed to have so many good friends and amazing family members.  A real highlight for me was that some of our out-of-town friends could make it.  My friend Olivier from Paris (yes, France) and my friend from Dallas, John, both made it.  And, my friend Scott’s mom, Marty Brassart, came in from Indiana!  It was so wonderful to have all of them!  Many of you who couldn’t be there sent lovely gifts as well and we so appreciate them.

My mom from Tennessee couldn’t be there but sent some adorable clothes for the baby along with my silver baby teething rattle and baby ring.  I had forgotten all about them and Allen had to read her note as I was too choked up.  Many others had tears as well. 

The time is now drawing near for Little Quentin to make his debut.  We are anxious to meet him but also hope he’ll stay in as long as he is supposed to!  The due date is February 25th but I am guessing the 19th. If any of you have a guess, let us know! 

The nursery is all done now.  Allen has washed all of the baby clothes and put them away.  Thank goodness Allen is so organized!!!  My sister-in-law Barbara will be out when Quentin is born to help and then Allen’s sister joins us. 

Not sure if we’ll blog anymore before the birth but we’ll upload baby pics as soon as possible.
