If you know Sabrina, she has always had a book in her hand. Vacations, car trips, dentist appointments, between piano lessons– Sabrina had something to read. That never really went away (in fact it’s probably worse now) and she even majored in English Lit at BYU. She always knows the good books to read and when the next sequel comes out. Naturally, last weekend we threw Sabrina a beatrix-potterish book themed baby shower to honor her and her new baby girl coming early August.

It was really fun to see what everyone’s favorite books were, lots of them had stories or memories to go with them. We love an excuse to throw a party, and what better excuse than the imminent arrival of a brand new baby. We are so excited for Sabrina and Jared- both with be such natural parents. I’m pretty sure Isabelle wanted to put Jared in her pocket and keep him forever.
My guess on the baby’s arrival is Sunday, August 11th at 3:30 am. Eight pounds, two ounces and head of hair. Alright Sabrina, make it happen!
