Baby Shower Proposal

[mrsgreene2011]

We discussed getting enagaged and possibly married before we had our daughter. We decided against rushing a wedding, but I definitely wanted to get engaged, we had been together almost 5 years. Our baby shower was in Oct 2009 and I was due Nov.9. Needless to say he hadn't mentioned the engagement or discussed anything for months so I kind of gave up on the idea. The day of the baby shower arrives and it was a busy day. The shower was wonderful and so many guest came. Midway during the shower my FI asked if he could have everyones attention; I didn't even think anything of it. I thought he wanted to thank everyone. He got down on one knee and said a beautiful speech, (which I don't remember because I was so nervous) and asked me to marry him. It was so beautiful and everyone was crying. The funniest part of the story is my mom, (I am her only daughter) missed the whole thing! She stepped out to smoke a cigarette. She was so mad, she made him do it again, lol. Good thing my cousin videotaped it!

how sweet! My cousin proposed to his fiancee at their daughter's baby shower too, it was so sweet. He had her read a card from him then popped the question. I actually knew beforehand but it's so sweet how it all played out. She was so surprised.

Thanks everyone. It's weird because with everything that was going on, I can't remember the moment cleary.

That's so wonderful. When that would happen to me , I think I'll get that nervous too. By the way does the words he mention out sink into your mind or your just heard your heart pumping out loud??

I think I just heard my heart beating so loud. There were so many emotions I think it just went out of my head. I am a little sad that I can't remember what he said.
