Was absolutely amazing. Our girl is so, SO loved, by so many people. DH & I feel incredibly blessed. It was very emotional, funny, and fantastic. I couldn't have asked for anything more. I started the day SO nervous. I talked to my bloggy BFF Melissa, asking her if it was "odd" that I was nervous. She told me no, that having the shower makes it all real...and boy was she right. I was almost in tears when it started because I never though we'd be here. Having a shower for OUR baby!! Now, for some pics =)
This is me & my Aunt Bev. She quilted this as a surprise for me. This is kind of the "theme" of Baby E's room..Lots of bright colors, not much pastels. It's SO gorgeous!!
This is Baby E's "autograph frame." We had all the shower guests sign it & leave a little message for her. I "stole" the idea from SIL's wedding. I think it will be really cool to explain it to her when she gets older.
These are some of the table decorations. Our theme is also frogs, obviously =) I love them and she got SO much frog stuff, outfits, bouncy seat, bathtub etc.
This is me, looking HUGE (34wk1d).
Aunt Lindsey, Nana Becky, Grandma Gail & myself
Grandma Gail (my mom) & Nana Becky (DH's mom) =)
This is the quilt my mom made for Baby E. I requested this a few months ago when I couldn't find bedding for her that I like. My grandma (her mom) made one for her (and me) and I wanted the same thing. I picked out the pattern & the quilt pieces, she did everything else. It is ABSOLUTELY the most gorgeous thing ever. It is amazing.
Yep, I'd say our gal is loved (and maybe a bit spoiled already?)
Nana, Grandma, & Me. Man, I look like my mom..lol
So I'm looking quite teary in this pic, but I had just opened the quilt that my grandma (who is now passed away) made for my mom (and me) 28 years ago. I couldn't even explain it to everyone because I was crying. It is so fantastic. There wasn't a dry eye in the place as Kathy read the label & the card that came along with it. It was beautiful.
There are a TON more, but I don't want to overload anyone. Also, the cake was amazing, and tasty, but it has her name on it, and I'm still a little superstitious, so I will post that after she is born. It's a must see =) Okay, off to do laundry and watch football. Hope your weekend was great!!
