The lovely ladies I work with

Yesterday started out like any other day. I went to work like I do every day. My co-worker S and I had the same lunch time and like usually, decided to eat together. We had both brought our lunches and I figured we’d go down to the cafeteria and eat. Late in the morning she tells me that another girl in the office, K, wants to walk to the market for a burrito. I got one last time we went and she wants to try them. I agreed and we made plans to walk over for lunch. S comes to get me around quarter to 1 and says we should go to lunch early since both she and K have meetings at 2. No biggie, the phone were covered so we left. Lunch as usual was good; you can’t beat a $3 stuffed burrito!K had to get back to make her meeting so after eating we walked back to work. Before heading upstairs, K wanted to check out one of the conference rooms that she needed to schedule a meeting in. When we got there it sounded like there was a meeting going on. She knocked and went in. I was going to wait in the hall, but they told me to come in…SURPRISE! All the girls from nursing Admin and Recruitment were there for my surprise baby shower!!!! OMG was I shocked!I totally wasn’t expecting it! I figured I’d get a card and maybe we’d do cake at the last staff meeting before I’m due, but nothing like this!
The girls had lemonade, a cake, and gifts. It was so awesome. I got a lot of really great stuff including my diaper bag, blanket, washcloths, books, stuffed animals, baby care products, and the program I support pitched in and bought the convertible car/booster seat we registered for!
I have the greatest co-workers ever! Thanks girls for making an ordinary Monday extra special!I would post pictures, but I didn’t have my camera with me!
