Shane and Jen's Baby Party

Arne and I had such a fun time this weekend hosting a Baby Shower for Shane & Jen's soon-to-be-here little Miss. Some of the highlights were:
  1. having cleaners come clean the house (and me not having to do it),
  2. the "How Big is Shane's Sympathetic Belly" game (what a hoot!),
  3. and having over 20 people comfortably in the house on a standard San Francisco summer afternoon (foggy & cold, then sunny & warm, repeat).
Pin the diaper on the baby didn't get played, but the kids in attendance sure had a fun time drawing various excrement on the construction paper "diapers".

Lastly, we tried to do a "Conception Pool" to "guess when it all began" but couldn't really get that off the ground. Maybe the price was too high - $5. I did have a chance to deflect my nephew's question, "What's that?" to his dad (my brother-in-law). (Cheers, Dino!)

Here are some fun pictures of the shindig. We'll know next time to set people up to open presents on the side of the room across from the windows. Wish you could have been there!
