It's a Girl! - the Baby Shower

I feel very blessed to have made few but very good friends here in Saigon. I am in my most comfortable when I am with these lovely people!:) So last November 5, they staged another baby shower for me, Paolo and the little girl! It was a great night indeed because all the people who were there are the ones i know who will shower love and care not only for me and Paolo but most especially to Gianna Lucia :)

I'll make the photos speak for what went through the whole night of fun!

(the bunting Dick, Fel, Kat and Eric painstakingly cut and prepared the night before the shower party)

(Well done to both Kat and Fel for making this diaper cake!)

(Kat and Eric hosted the shower and prepared a sumptuous dinner for all of us.)

A baby shower won't be complete without the games. And I am really amazed at how much they have thought of all the things that were done.

(Majority of the girls are preschool teachers except for Fel and Kat. And so when this game was done, all of them were very competitive as to how they want the decorate the onesies for the Gianna)

(Look at the finished products! Well done girls!)

Next game involved the couples! The wives were blindfolded and were tasked to feed the husbands with baby food. Paolo and I lost unfortunately:( but it was sheer fun to have both Eric and Dick joined the game.

This time, Dads were asked to put a diaper on a baby doll, both Dick and Eric were really good at it whilst I commend Paolo for trying his very best despite of taking the whole sticker off the nappy :)

(Gianna is indeed delighted to have all these gifts but I know she is more grateful for having so many people around her.)

It was a lovely evening full of fun and enjoyment and it was made more special with people whom we know will always be there for us as we take a journey to parenthood.

I am now just waiting for the Big Day (am now on my 37 weeks). I am getting really excited to meet our little girl and i know my family and friends are also looking forward to see that precious little bundle of joy that we have been waiting for.

I'm patient baby girl and I will wait for you when you are ready.

Mum and Dad love you very much.
