Juvenile precipitation

It rarely rains in California, so instead they have to organise baby showers! Anyway, today 8-month-pregnant Christine was treated to a surprise party and the full range of baby related merchandise. Only one post-birth baby was present, Logan, and he lapped up the cooing and attention like a pro.

Looking up "baby shower" in Wikipedia gives you a range of traditional activities we could have indulged in. Apart from the cake and the presents, these were mercifully ignored.



Pleasingly non-gender-specific banner.



Amanda, hostess extraordinaire, organises.



You're eating for two now.



Elise (she's done all this before) strikes a pose and husband Elliot can only watch astonished.



Dana, my blogging arch-rival, shows off that she has a much better camera than me.



Surprise!



Expectant parents. It's so good that they can still joke about what's to come.



Sagy (in focus), Moran (slightly out of focus) and Jesse (completely blurred).



Logan steals the show, as ever.



A mother has to get her iron supplements somewhere!
