The Baby Shower

My Mom, Aunt Kathi, Aunt Kerri, and Grandma Bonnie threw me the most amazing baby shower this weekend! We played two fun games: the name game and "pin the diaper on the baby." With the name game, you get a name (we used famous mothers) pinned to your back and have to figure out who it is by asking other people yes or no questions. "Pin the diaper on the baby" is the baby shower version of a game my college roommate, Becca, made up for my sister's wedding shower called "pin the lips on the groom." To add a little of both Danny and me to the game, we used my baby picture for the head of the baby and used camo printed paper to make the diapers. It was such a fun night-thanks to everyone who came and celebrated with us!

My sister-in-law, Bree, made this cute diaper cake for me. That's what 100 diapers looks like shaped into a 4-layer cake (that tidbit of information just might come in handy some day...)
My dad came up with the caption that we put in the thought bubble for the "pin the diaper on the baby" game: "My dad is tougher than your dad!"

From left to right: Aunt Kathi, Grandma, and Aunt Kerri, hard at work. They are a force of nature when they're doing projects, so I just stood back and took pictures.

Danny's mom and sisters were able to come up from Boulder for the event.

Here's the spread (from left to right): mini pink cheesecakes, mini cupcakes, chocolate-dipped pretzels, chocolate cake, and chocolate-dipped brownie bites on sticks. In the background is a lollipop tree, and then there's bowls of pink candy all around the table: M&M's, kisses, mints, jelly bellies, chewy gummies. It was all delicious, and oh-so stylish. The tablecloth is made from some drapes my grandma found for $5.
