No matter what I do... my parents will never be happy with me. I try so hard just to be able to get close again... well I can't even get in the realm of close with my parents. Just don't understand why the first words that come from my father's mouth in years when he actually talked to me were... "Don't put those out they will melt!" And then the next time he spoke to me was when he told my aunt that he wasn't going to hold my niece until she was 2... after I had said that she was his grandaughter... he said..."She's not my responsibility!" and that was it. My mom never spoke to me at all. Not even did she say happy birthday when my grandma and aunt were saying it. I am done!

On to the baby shower.

IT WAS GREAT!

There wasn't as many people that I thought there would be but for who and what it was it worked really well.

Shelley got a lot of things that she wanted as well as some interesting things like 60- 100 pairs of socks for the baby. lol when we were kids we didn't wear socks. She also got some really nice outfits for Aurora. Aurora by the way, was awesome and slept most of the day as everyone held her. Perfect Princess.

The food was great, the people were great, the games were fun... Everyone was able to at least get one prize and then a candle to take home. I am happy with the way it went.
