A Showering of Gifts

So, we had Paxton's shower this weekend.  Some braved the weather and made it out, others were not able to. 



But that didn't stop a continuous flow of presents for the little guy.  Of course, as soon as we got home this happened:


Caitlynne calls it nesting.  I call it Caitlynne dumping everything out.  Of course he got a lot of clothes.


 He got a lot of other stuff as well.  My favorite?  My Mom still had my first teddy bear that was given to me by BG's sister, my Great Aunt Wanda.  She cleaned him up, and replaced the voice box.  She included a note with his brief history including the his smashed nose is because I used to use him as a pillow.


There were several things he got that were a blast from our past.  The kind of things you want your kid to enjoy that you also enjoyed growing up.

As you can tell, he has started a stuffed animal collection including a classic favorite, Max from The Grinch that Stole Christmas.
 
And, like his Mom he has started a shoe collection.

Some people got pretty creative with custom made stuff including the bedding which Caitlynne's Mom made.




Our good friends Ryan and Tabatha started his OU collection off nicely with his first football and a board book explaining everything a baby should know about Sooner Land.


But, we got the most important thing of all:
