babies and frog legs
August 1, 2012 Leave a comment
In June, Drew’s sister threw us a joint baby shower with Drew’s cousin Annie and her husband Keith who are expecting their first baby a month before us. It was a great chance to get to Missouri to see family since we won’t be traveling for a while (and missing another cousin wedding in September.)
There were yummy cookies shaped like baby carriages and fried frog legs! I’d never had frog legs before, but they were delicious – tasted a lot like chicken!
Kari planned a game for Drew and I and Annie and Keith – it was more of a race. We had to race against Annie and Keith by diapering and clothing a doll, eating a jar of baby food and then Drew had to suck down a baby bottle full of beer.
I started with diapering the doll to show Drew how it’s done, then he had to undiaper and rediaper and cloth the doll.
Then we both scarfed down a little jar of baby food. It was fruit – not bad!
Then Drew tried sucking down the beer in a slow flow bottle and quickly decided to just down it without the lid, or else we would have been there all night.
We won!
We got a lot of nice loot for the baby and plenty of cute outfits!
Thanks family for the wonderful shower and all the great gifts!
