Baby Shower!

What a great weekend we had!! It went by so fast!! Of course this past Saturday was finally baby shower time!! I spent the night Friday at my sister-in-law’s since we were having the party at her house.  We had a lot of things on the to do list and we accomplished most of them Friday.  Saturday we were able to not rush and take things easy getting set up for the party at 2:00.  As hostess I was crazy busy the entire time and didn’t have time for pictures so I’m praying that other people took some!! I did take a few of the decorations before the party got started but none of the new mommy to be (Yes, I suck!).

Our invite! (I took parts of the names, addresses, and phone numbers off if you are thinking it looks funny).

Our invite that I designed!! Pretty proud of this!

Everyone brought a onesie to hang up! Loved this idea!!

I have only been to a couple of baby showers and each time after the gifts were opened I was pretty much ready to leave.  We had games and lots of things going on so people stayed pretty interested.  The party started at 2:00 and at 4:00 everyone was still like OK WHAT’S NEXT? That’s how I know it was a great party!

Yesterday Adam and I enjoyed a quiet day.  We had a late breakfast, went to a movie, did some grocery shopping, and caught up on some DVR stuff.  It was great to just have a day where I didn’t have to plan something.  But now I’m kind of floundering.  I need something to plan and keep me excited!! I’m going to devote my time to getting my weight watchers back on track!!

The shower decor and food look amazing!!! I love the onesie idea a lot! I'll have to remember that one! :o)

I love quiet days! I finally got one on Saturday. It had been so long since I'd relaxed that I almost didn't know how to!
