On August 31st my Grandma Wanda gathered the special ladies in my family for a little "Sprinkle" in honor of our precious "Gem." We enjoyed a lovely lunch with my favorite cuisine (Chinese), delicious cake and wine (well, everyone but Clara and I). It was a fun opportunity to get together and celebrate our new little girl, plus it made this Mama feel very special and celebrated! It feels amazing to know that you are bringing a child into the world when they are already loved by so many people!

Clara and Mommy surrounded by a bounty of beautiful gifts. We do still have a lot Clara's beautiful clothes and baby accessories, but it is nice to know "Gem" will have some of her own new things as well.

It is almost unbelievable how tiny the newborn clothes are! They feel even smaller this time around because I am used to Scout-sized things (she is already wearing a 4T and size 8 shoe)!

Clara liked being a part of a "big girl" event and kept a close eye on the cake all of the afternoon. We couldn't get her to look at the camera for this picture, but her face is priceless!

Grandma Wanda, Mom and I (with baby Gem) - I value everything I have learned from these exceptional women!
Thank you for such a special afternoon! The day made me all the more excited for the arrival of our precious little one!
