Girl Celebrations

The night we found out that we are having a girl, we left the doctor's office to buy a bottle of sparkling grape juice to celebrate. There was already a bottle of champagne at home, compliments of the Shaver/Bishop wedding last summer. After stopping at the liquor store and CVS with no luck, we ended up at Kroger buying an assortment of appetizers to celebrate, too!
So we went home, drank our bubbly, toasted to our daughter and enjoyed our evening. It consisted of appetizers, baby Scrabble (which Mike invented requiring every word to be used in a sentence regarding a baby), reading a few letters-worth of the baby name book and catching up on our daily baby journal. It was wonderful!

Then Mark and Sonya came by with dinner and a surprise for the baby. We toasted some more with the Jameses and basked in our wonderful news. Here are a few shots from the evening...You can disregard the incredibly small words. It was just for fun. :)
