You know while I was pregnant with you, your daddy was working on his master's in music to become a better horn player and teacher. While we may have butted heads with his private instructor, Dr. Spence, she had her moments when she was really thoughtful and kind.
On October 1st, she planned a surprise shower for us with the rest of the horn studio. Back in September, she asked me what was something that I needed before you arrived, and I said, "more diapers, and not newborn-sized ones." We got a huge amount of diapers, mostly size 2, which was a huge help when you were born. In fact, we may have to exchange some of the 2s for 3s - I'm not kidding when I say we got a LOT of size 2 diapers!
The diaper shower also included a game where Daddy had to sample a bunch of baby foods and guess what they were, and when he got one then Dr. Spence would give me a present to open. You got so many Mizzou-themed baby gifts that day, which you wore with pride.
The shower took place at a pizza place called Shakespeare's. If we ever make it to Columbia, Missouri, when you're older, we're going to take you here. It's such a fun place to eat, and your dad and I have made a lot of memories here.
