I truly am so lucky that so many wonderful women in my life are pregnant. Kt Huber is due on Christmas and since we have been 16 years old, we have dreamed of having babies at the same time. It's almost too much to think that our dream came true!! For those of you who need a reminder, Kt and I met at Camp St. Croix and spent years as counselors together. She has also been my #1 adventure companion-- we went to Northern Ireland together for a summer and spent months traveling and volunteering in Central America.
It is so much fun to think that her adventure in motherhood is just about to begin!
Molly Cooney, Katie Pfaff, and I planned a non-traditional baby shower for Kt called a "Blessingway." It comes from the Navajo Native American tradition and it was truly one of the most special things I have been apart of.
We did a lot of different rituals, all focusing on Kt and her transition into motherhood. Here are some of the highlights--pampering Kt with a foot soak, hand and neck rubs; putting together a labor necklace for her to use, stringing a web of support, and of course, lots of eating!
