The hostest with the mostest


Daddy was looking through recent photos of Gwendolyn today and found this little gem. Last weekend, the Ronaghans hosted a baby shower for our good friend Jennifer. There was another wee one at the party (Natalie -- apparently she's not a big fan of clothes) and she and Gwendolyn got busy with playing while the adults enjoyed their tea and conversation. Of course, Gwendolyn couldn't resist also helping out with the opening of the gifts and charming everyone in the room with her lively personality.

(Note the toque Gwendolyn is wearing; it's one of Grandma Ronaghan's creations. G. wouldn't look out of place at a Reggae concert wearing that colourful number...)

BTW, a lesson was learned by Mama and Daddy post-shower. You see, Gwendolyn enjoyed her fair share of chocolate cake during the party, mooching bites from several plates. We've been quite careful with Gwendolyn and sweets, but were a little lax this time around.

Unfortunately, that decision came with some consequences; it was clear from Gwendolyn's behaviour well into the evening that she was on a big, crazy sugar high. As you might expect, we're back to being careful.
