Bene's Baby Shower

Even though this will be Bene's 3rd child, it will be her first to be born in France. So Robin and one of Bene's French friends decided to throw a baby shower (that, and the fact we will use any excuse for a party!). There was a nice mix of Bene's American and French friends at the shower. It was also a great chance for Jen Page, who just moved here 3 days ago, to meet everyone. We had lots of good food and wine, and even a shower game. The object of the game was to estimate how many squares of toilet paper it would take to go around Bene's belly. I guessed 11, which was close. The correct guess was 9. The big hit of the night was the diaper "cake" that Clarrette made complete with ribbon and little booties and one-sies tied to the side. It even had 2 pink necklaces for Bene's two older girls.
