Showering baby Stella (& Todd & Laine) with lots of L-O-V-E

Yesterday was the baby shower for baby Stella (and mommy & daddy-to-be, Todd & Laine). I am so excited for them. We had the baby shower at my mom's house and Aunt Virginia and Mary Elizabeth helped host it. It was wonderful. I am so grateful for dear friends like them who helped plan, coordinate, and throw the shower. Mary Elizabeth will be next!! :) Baby Levi is due March 13th, which is not too far away. Laine looked beautiful and Tucker LOVED loving on her belly. After the shower was over, Laine put him in her lap and he just SAT and SAT and SAT and SAT for at LEAST 20-25 minutes. We couldn't believe it. He just sat there and ate the first few minutes, then just watched what was going on and started loving on baby Stella in her belly. It was SO cute. We kept telling him to rub her belly - that there was a baby in there and he didn't know what to think. After rubbing his own belly several times, he finally understood that we were telling him to rub HER belly. He started rubbing it real gently. A few minutes later, he got confused & started rubbing all over her chest, thinking he was supposed to do that, too. We cracked up because Jonathan said "how are we gonna explain this at church tonight?" Haha. He didn't do that but one time but it was so funny. I can't wait to love on that sweet baby girl when she gets here but also to see how Tucker will do with her. This will be the first little baby he will be around so ... we said he's not gonna know what to think! This would be a good time to introduce "sharing". :) Here are a few pics from yesterday..
