April Showers


This is us April 11, 2015. 4 weeks to go!




This past Saturday Mister Zelbot had a baby shower at our old local favorite Flatbush Farm. My sister, mom, Mary, Tamika and Wislene all pitched in and put it together. It was fantastic! We had a great brunch, painted onesies, played silly games including sculpting babies out of playdoh. Cristina and I got to judge the best overall, creepiest, best hair, best accessories etc. 

We have some amazing friends! We felt very loved and celebrated. It was what I suppose people feel like when they celebrate a wedding. Honestly it exceeded my expectations and I was surprised at how having a baby brings people together. Everyone has been very generous. 



The winners. 

Cherry gets best hair award!


My mom and sister Catherine came to New York a couple days early to see our house upstate and help out with the shower. They liked our house (phew). We are so excited to see what spring brings at our home in elizaville. 

 In fact they helped me build the crib! Catherine bought a big bottle of bourbon and said that was as important as the screwdriver or wrench. 

Nice crib yo!

While I don't reccomend buying a home, getting engaged and having a baby in under 6 months time ... I wouldn't have it any other way. We are so lucky. So thankful for all of it. 

It feels like we a planning for a moment in time, when in reality that moment will be our future ongoing. Hold on tight Cristina!
