More thoughtful gifts.....

I have some of the most amazing friends in the world....and all over the US at that.....It always means so much to me to know that they think of me/us especially during times in our life like now.....I love all the friends that I have met....in grade school....in college....in Connecticut and now California.....I have been so blessed!  

Yesterday there was a knock on the door and I was surprised by another thoughtful gift from a great friend/family of ours back in Connecticut.....The Sines!  Jeread was on the USS Alexandria with Josh and Annette(his wife) was so welcoming to me from day 1.  She has always made me feel welcome.....I can't tell you how many times I would come home from work in CT while the guys where gone to find cookies or some kind of goody made/left by her and their son Cooper!  Thanks Jeread, Annette and Cooper!

I had to take a picture because I was so excited b/c EVERYTHING they sent us where things on our "still to get list" before the baby comes......

The book was picked out by Cooper...and we don't have very many books at all so I was super excited about it!  We don't have any bottles so the bottles were a definite need!  We only had one pack and play sheet and since that is where she will sleep when she first comes home we needed more!  The pacifiers weren't necessarily a NEED but definitely a want for me b/c we don't have any girly(pink) pacifiers....the only ones we have were gender neutral...which is fine...but I wanted some pink(thanks Annette)!  Lastly are two pink hooded towels and 4 wash cloths......and did I mention that they are Kitty cats and Animal Print!!!!!  I love love love them and can't wait for her to get here so we can give her a bath and take a picture of her cute clean self wrapped up in them!
