Baby Shower-My Side of the Family

Yes, this is the invitation to the baby shower--my Mom made these--aren't they so cute??

Ahhhhh baby showers...so fun. I have always loved going to them, but being the PURPOSE of the shower is REALLY way better :) It's like Christmas, but for baby stuff!! I'm so glad I'm having a girl, because I totally LOVE girl clothes--but who doesn't, right?

My aunt Shaunie hosted the shower with my Mom and it was so fun--I was spoiled, that's for sure!! My cousin, Sacha, works and Babies R Us, and got the "big items," for the group present, which was the high chair and the swing/bassinet thing for like 50% off, so I was so lucky because she was able to get more than just one item!

Here are some pictures of the evening: (unfortunately, not too many because I totally forgot my camera!! So I made my Mom take pictures on her's and most of them were blurry becuase her camera is...having technical difficulties, I guess...)

Sacha made this AMAZING diaper cake for me!! She is so awesome! She teaches classes on how to do them (as well as lots of other birth-related classes) at Babies R Us.

Here's the lovely table display--Shaunie is always so cute! I love these little booties with Jordan Almonds in them (and I LOVE Jordan Almonds...)

Here I am with (left to right) my cousin, Ashley and her baby girl, Kate, me, Rachel, my wonderful neighbor and friend, and Sacha, the queen of the night with her awesome gifts and advice!! I totally look HUGE in this photo...oh well!

Ok this is totally not from the shower, but Heather's little Lauren was there, and I have this CUTEST picture of her, so I had to post it anyway!

And here's (from left to right) my cousin, Dayna, her mom, Ruth (my Mom's sister), and Grandma Evelyn!

And me opening a present!

And...the other pics of the night didn't make it past my anti-blurr filter. So, here are some pictures of some of the stuff I got!!! (mainly the cute outfits :))

My Mom got me these CUTE onesies, and the little baby sack thing you put them in--what's it called again? And a bunch of adorable receiving blankets!! That top pattern is my favorite (the receiving blanket on top of the stack)

And this adorable outfit from Ashley! I especially love the "SWEET" on the back--so cute!!

My cousin, Stephanie, (Sacha's sister) who lives in Philadelphia and soon, Tennessee, is SO AWESOME!! She gave me this hand-made blanket that is super soft, and this adorable little lamb dress!!! I was dying. So cute!!!!

And my cousin, Dayna got me these sweet little onesies and bibs. My Grandma Evelyn got me the cute booties and a gift card... they are so awesome!!

My really HIP Aunt Tammy and her daughter, Amber, got me the coolest little leopard-print outfit!! Jordan's eyes widened a bit when he saw it, hahaa... so fun!! They also got me a Baby Einstein gym also--the one where the baby lies down and plays with the stuff above her...that thing. I definitely needed one of those!

I also got a great "Chicco" high chair, that apparently, as Heather said, is the "Rolls Royce" of high chairs :) haha... and also a Little Lamb swing--so cute, from Fisher Price. Those were the big group gifts that my aunts and uncles bought me--Shaunie, Bart, Sharon, Scott, Brad, Nancy, and my sister, Heather, and her husband, Jay. Thank you guys so much!!!!

I'm so grateful to have had such a great shower!! I'm so lucky that my little girl is going to look so cute :) Thank you to everyone!!
