I arrived back from Scotland on Fri 22 October. The next day, my very good friend, Wanita invited me over for tea and an update on the holiday. When I arrived at her house, it turned out that she had arranged a surprise baby shower for me! There were people there that I hadn’t seen for years. It was absolutely awesome to feel part of the “baby world”. Everyone made such a fuss of the fact that I was going to be a mom soon. I was really, really spoilt. I got completely kitted out with everything (and more) that a baby could possibly need. My then sister-in-law who has 3 boys had been saving all her stuff for me so she bought me a boot load of goodies! It was such a dreamy, perfect, exciting, fun, amazing afternoon. Needless to say, Sunday was spent arranging the baby’s room, unpacking all my new goodies and moving the cot, bath, compactum, pram, chair etc into their new places.
First thing on Monday morning, I called the social worker to let her know I was back and VERY ready. I told her about the baby shower on Saturday and how the room was ready. She sounded a little odd and said she’d call me back later. I didn’t take much notice as I was so excited and wrapped up in my new baby goodies! I went to work with a spring in my step.
