Allie's obsession with babies



Allie has been asking, praying, throwing pennies in wishing wells, daydreaming, and so forth about having a baby sister. We keep telling her that she just might get another brother (when the time comes) and that she better not get her hopes up.
Soooo Allie was having a bored moment (imagine that) and decided that her and our neighbor (Savannah) were going to host a baby shower. This baby shower was for Allie and her baby that she had already had. Anyway, they got out the scrapbook paper and made decorations and signs pointing to the restroom which they plastered all through the house. They found an old bottle of Brock's and filled it with candy for a guessing game (which they made ALL of us do)...Jason won...BIG SURPRISE. Anyway, they then decided they needed to make cookies for the refreshments. So Allie, Savannah, and I made the baby shower cookies and put them out for the guests. It was almost time for the guests to arrive so the girls (and Brock) put on their fancy dresses and waited. Anyway, we all played games in the living room, ate cookies, pretended Allie was a new mommy and watched Brock prance around in a slip that he thought was a dress. I know Jason won't be proud of these pictures, but look how cute he looks even if he thinks he's a girl sometimes!!! He does have a bat and ball in his hand throughout most of the "shower." Don't worry honey...it will pass!
