On Wednesday, Richard's co-workers threw him a surprise baby shower! His boss called him into a meeting as a distraction so the others could decorate the kitchen for the shower. Then another co-worker came into the meeting and hoodwinked Richard into the kitchen, under the ruse of donuts. Apparently there were pink streamers in the door way and Richard just burst through without a second thought. Then he's like "hey where's the donuts?!" Then he notices a pink cake with little baby booties on it and the 'it's a girl' balloons -- and still being oblivious -- asks who's birthday party it is and how come he wasn't invited. hahaha. Then everyone says "surprise!" And Richard finally realizes it's a surprise baby shower for him! Oh classic Richard.
He had some issues opening gifts and keeping things in order. But we got soooo much stuff. Seriously, money, high chair, gift cards, swaddlers, towels, onesies, clothes, you name it! It meant so much to both of us that people went all out for the girls! Richard's boss made the favors and the cake. The favors were so cute and funny. And the cake was amazing.
It was so cool for Richard to get a shower since baby showers aren't as common for dads-to-be.

Thank you to everyone that contributed! :-) We can't wait for you all to babysit hehehe ;-)

How nice! Richard has very nice coworkers! Richard got to feel like a queen for the day. ;)
Hahahaha... I completely predicted his reaction - Mr. Oblivious indeed. We got some great stuff! And he got even more gifts yesterday - so we're still raking stuff in :-)
Score!
