I am so excited to be an Aunt for the first time I can hardly stand it! So, I went a little overboard with
Pinterest and helping to plan her shower. Thought it would be fun to share the wealth of what we put together for my sis in law and her baby girl to be!
This shower truly was a gift of love because I couldn't have been given a better gift of a sister in Aunt Ricki! Which, by the way she hates that I call her that (obviously not her name) but I love it. Its the only pseudo sister like thing I think I do to her! HA! I don't have a real sister and am honestly very thankful for that. HA! Seriously-all my friends with real sisters make me love the fact that I have a brother! Aunt Ricki tcame into our lives almost 5 years ago and just embraced our family! JD called her Aunt Ricki well before she was actually married to Uncle Badgeman! She and Uncle Badgeman now live just a few seconds down the road from us now and it is so fun to be able to see them all the time! I can't say enough about how much I love her, how much I think she is PERFECT for my brother in law, and what an amazing mother I know she will be...frankly she already is!! She has been such an amazing aunt to our kids I hope to be able to be the same for hers!
