A Shower A Day

Sunday morning, Keith and I went to a co-ed baby shower in honor of the newest addition to the Cooper family, a little girl schedule to be delivered into this world on December 14. Not only was it fun to get a head-start on celebrating this little life, it was also fun to watch the men squirm and be uncomfortable at a shower. They quickly got over it when the games began and their competitiveness overshadowed the discomfort. But as it turns out, I'm pretty good at baby shower games that don't involve not saying the word "baby" and tied for first place in two of the three games we played.

One of the games our lovely hostess, Danielle, coordinated was the always-entertaining "Guess the Baby" game. It's fun to see your friends a million years ago, either looking exactly the same but smaller or looking like totally different people. Unfortunately, if your name is David, you might mistake an adult woman for a male child. And then the adult woman would have to give you a very hard time about that.

I thought it would be fun to share our pictures from the game. So that no one is embarrassed by confusing us one for the other, Keith is on the little four-wheeler, and I am wearing the red dress and holding the Easter basket. Keith's picture was taken in El Paso (see all the sand?) in 1969, and mine was taken in Florida in 1971.

Now that I think about it maybe this photo shoot started Keith's fascination with motorcycles. Maybe mine started my fascination with bags.

I've never been to a co-ed baby shower before but I love these pictures of the two of you. You had good hair even when you were little! :)

That was my reaction as well. First words out of my mouth were, "Hell no I'm not going to a baby shower." All in all it was a lot of fun.
