There's a baby on board!

Because we live hours away from so many of our family & friends, I decided a blog would be a great way for all of you to have a closer look into what's going on with Baby Ripley, Mommy & Daddy as we anxiously await & prepare for January 2, 2011.

Ohio Valley Baby Shower

Sunday, November 28th was our Baby Shower & was it ever perfect! It was held at Generations Restaurant in Wheeling (a halfway point for both families). Everything was PINK & I LOVED it! We had such a great turn out. I couldn't have asked for anything better. We had about 50 in attendance, played just a few games (nothing too cheesy) & gave out awesome gifts from Bath & Body Works products, homemade wreaths my Aunt Jacki made & poinsettias that were the centerpieces on each table. We were served a light lunch of chicken salad croissants & fruit salad.
Everyone was so happy because Brett came to meet everyone & open presents, sometime not very common at showers. He was such a great help & it was so nice to have him there with Kinsley & I. She loves her Daddy & was excited for him to see all the new things she had gotten! We got soooooooo many gifts I couldn't believe it. From essentials, home made blankets, clothes, toys, bouncer, shopping cart cover.. just everything! And my absolute favorite.. my COACH baby bag!! =D
My mom also had a golf bag diaper cake made for Brett & surprised him with a pair of golf shoe slippers for little baby girls that he got to open. He was so excited, and is hoping for a little golfer in the future!


We actually got soooo many presents we couldn't fit them all in the Trail Blazer to take back to Buckhannon. My mom ended up having to take some home with her & bring them down later! Kinsley-Baby hit the jackpot. We had such a wonderful day though & are so blessed & lucky to have such wonderful friends & family in our lives & to welcome Kinsley too.
