My weekend was so busy, I can’t believe it’s over already! Saturday was spent cleaning at my parents house in preparation for Oma’s 80th birthday party the following day. Then, after all our cleaning, we had a little birthday party for Carlos. He got a ton of Future Crap gift cards from my family, so we headed right to Future Crap after the party so he could get some goodies. He got a second game (so now he has Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4). Both my brothers came over on Saturday night to play. Once Thom left (he had to get his gf from work), I played for a bit. I think I impressed them both because I was pretty good! I think it was beginners luck. I went to bed just after 11pm, but CT and Al stayed up until almost 2am playing. I’m glad they are enjoying it.
Sunday was spent preparing for Oma’s party and then Oma’s party lasted the afternoon. A total of 35 people showed up, which was great! Oma really loved it! So after the busy weekend, I pretty much just crashed yesterday and worked on my cross-stitch for a couple hours.
I probably mentioned a few weeks ago that CT’s cousin and his girlfriend had a baby girl. Well, I am invited to the baby shower which is on Saturday. What is a baby gift to get for someone that you barely know? Any ideas on fool-proof items that every mother needs? Maybe a cute sleeper or receiving blanket? I figure you can never have too many of those.

I got a co-worker a bunch of cheap items and made up a basket - face cloths, onsies, recieving blanket, cribsheet, soothers, etc. Packaged them all together and voila! It was my sisters suggestion.
1. You are right... you can never have too many sleepers or receiving blankets (and there are so many cute ones out there!).
2. If you are anywhere near a "Safety Superstore" I would reccomend getting a "Baby Wrappers" towel (http://www.babyproofingplus.com/item4960.htm). It is one of my favorite presents that I received. :)
