I had a beautiful baby shower this past Saturday to celebrate our sweet baby boy. The countdown is on around here, and we're less than three weeks away from his scheduled arrival date. It seems like a million years in some ways, but I know I'll blink and be getting my things ready to check into the hospital. I love how fun and intimate this shower was, it was at my house and I invited my closest friends and family. It was nice to be able to sit and talk, to catch up and laugh with everyone who came.

Rubber Duck Baby Shower

Susannah’s “You Are My Sunshine” Sip and See
This past weekend I co-hosted a "You are My Sunshine" sip and see for Susannah and baby Crue. I used the adorable party theme that Sweet Birdie's Nest created for a shower that Erin hosted.

Everyone signed the book with a sweet note for Crue. I think it will be a special keepsake. The adorable Welcome Baby Crue banner. Publix is generally my go-to for cupcakes but Rachel picked these up at Sam's and I can't tell you that number of people who asked where they came from. They … [Read more...]
