Tali went to the doctor's on Tuesday and found out she was effaced 80% and dilated to a three. All week, I was worried that she would go in to labor before the shower today. THANKFULLY, she made it - uncomfortable and swollen - but she made it! haha After the shower she said she wanted to jog home since it was now safe to have her baby (I think she took my threats about going into labor early seriously lol).
The shower was open house style - I'm not a big "shower games" person - and it was fun to mingle with everyone. Instead of games we gave away hawaii treats as door prizes. We had mom's chicken rolls, fruit, veggies and LOTS of sweets (can you tell me and Tali planned the menu?). Thank you to everyone who helped set up (Melba and Amber), cook (MOM) and came to celebrate! (I apologize for the pics - I didn't really take any till the end)

| It was so fun to see all our PCC/Laie peeps - Ni'i, Mary Ahmu (she JUST moved here from Hawaii and we're so excited she's here!), Crystal, Shan, Tali, Line, Lani, Juaul and me. Love these ladies! |
I think showers are such great excuses to get together - and they're always fun because something so wonderful is being celebrated. I'm so grateful for our family and friends who are helping Tali and Inoke prepare for this exciting time. I can't wait to meet my little neice!
