Baby Shower Gift

I told my mom that I would post pictures of the baby shower gift I made recently.  I found the carrier tote idea on my new favorite website Pinterest - very addicting!!  Granted my version isn't nearly as fancy, but I thought it turned out cute.  I basically covered a beverage carrier with scrapbook paper, ribbon and stickers with each name.  The baby side included soap, lotion and Boudreaux's Butt Paste.    

 Even though you can't see what's in the mama side, I included Bath and Body Works body wash/foam bath aromatherapy for Sleep, Energy and Stress Relief (every new mom could definitely use a little of each).

We can't wait to meet Lexy in a few months!

Fantastic Birthday and Shower!

Yesterday was my 28th birthday and our last baby shower. Brad and Beth (Gabe's sister and our brother-in-law) hosted a football themed couples diaper shower. All I can say is they went way above and beyond any expectations and we had a wonderful time! We are so blessed to have Beth and Brad in our lives that care so much to put so much time and effort into the wonderful night!

We played several games that included taking me out of the room and everyone had to write down what I was wearing - whoever remembered the most accurately won. After that they had the guys compete by seeing who could drink tea the fastest out of a baby bottle without taking the top off. Mike (Gabe's dad) won easily by ripping a hole in the nipple of the bottle - very creative! Then we all played a game where Brad read several questions and the answers to the questions were a candy that had been placed on the coffee table (What will the hospital bill cost? 100 Grand candy bar, etc). It was so much fun!

Thanks to everyone who came to the shower! We are loaded up with diapers and wipes! It's hard to imagine that we will ever run out, but I know that is far from the truth...

Regions Baby Shower

Thanks to all Gabe's coworkers at Regions, we had yet another wonderful shower! We even had a cake with our picture on it (look familiar?)!



We received lots of great gifts - clothes, blankets, Alabama gear (of course), and one of Gabe's favorites Boudreaux's Butt Paste and Butt Bath.

Another Shower

Thanks to the hostesses Dawn, Elizabeth, Kim and Jessica for my awesome shower last weekend. We received a ton of great gifts including a travel system, baby monitor system, high chair and lots of other cute stuff! Needless to say Nicholas won't be hurting for any cute outfits as we have a closet full already!

MMP Baby Shower

Thanks to all my coworkers in Kennesaw for my work baby shower! We had lunch at a restaurant in downtown Kennesaw and then they gave me a Baby Einstein activity center! I know Nicholas will thoroughly enjoy it - as will I to get some hands free time. Please ignore my crazy eyes in the pic below!

Bunco Baby Shower!

Last night was our monthly bunco night. I walked into Janna's apartment and saw a bunch of baby gift bags! They decided that I got all the bunco gifts for this month! I was completely surprised, which is why my reaction was Whoa - what's going on?

Thanks to all my bunco girls for last night! It was awesome and I can't thank you enough for the great gifts! I even had a stork cake that Alicia brought - it was the cutest ever!
