A Heartfelt Thanks

I just needed to send out a HUGE and heartfelt thank you to all my ladies (and anyone who was there and or contributed reads this blog) for making it possible for us to get to my son's 6th, nee SIXTH month of life before we had to go and buy ANY of these:








No really, you have NO idea how grateful we are. Max is so delighted, can't you tell? I mean, I just can't thank you enough. And to be fair, my Mom was incredibly generous and her gift to me/us was a box of diapers a month for the first year, so this was her first box having to purchase. So really, she's probably thanking you too, 6 months in she gets to start the purchase. MAN, I am so blessed! And thank goodness for hers and YOUR generosity, because yesterday I had to go and do this:



That my friends, coupled with buying formula, that is painful. Not gonna lie, might have shed a tear. $100.00 later. OUCH!! Babies are expensive little buggers. But you know what? They're SO worth it!!!

But really, please forgive me for my HUGE lameness of never getting my thank you notes out for the shower. It's embarassing really, and I have no great excuse. Ok, truth be told, Dixies and Jenny D's are written and in the envelope, have been since the hospital, just never handed them to you. UGH! Just let it be known that my heart is overwhelmed at the love and generosity of my friends and family. I am MORE than grateful for ALL you do, have done and continue to do for me and my little family. Thank you so MUCH for all the gifts. Max is a studly little fashion plate because of YOU!

Diapers and divas,

Allyson

What completely amazes me is that it still is in your consciousness about your thank you notes. Shows what a kind person you mask behind the sarcasm!
Growing up, that boy!
