We had a surprise baby shower for a girl at work today, and I'm so happy it all came together well. I was the one that put it together and it just seemed like everything was so last minute but it all came together so I guess that's all that matters. I had been planning it for a couple months and it was put on the clipboard 2 weeks ago that we were having a "potluck" and to ask either me or another girl that works with me for details... well unfortunately, some people didn't read. I asked for everyone to contribute 10 dollars or whatever they were willing to help with so that we could buy her a crib and of course the crib mattress.
They kept asking me how I was going to convince her to come in because she wasn't scheduled to work. So I told her that I would bring puerto rican food if she came to the potluck, so that worked out well!
Wish I had gotten a clip of her when she saw the gift, because it was just so precious and sweet to watch... She was in tears and made quite a bit of us also tear up. I love seeing other people happy and helping people! It's an amazing feeling!

Woohoo :) We got our first apartment in Reno! :) So excited!!! Very stressed though. A lot has been going on these last couple weeks but such is life. We will be in at the end of this month so it's going to zip by really fast I'm sure. Going to be very nice to finally be in our own space again
