Karen's Baby Shower!

Yesterday, we celebrated K girl's t-minus 2-month arrival of Little Bit! In other, more normal, words, I threw her a baby shower!!

Yes, in just two short months, we'll get to meet the little guy! We're all so excited. It was great to get to celebrate with Karen and watch her open up all of her sweet little gifts. Really, is there anything cuter in the world than baby clothes?!

It was a great time spent with family and friends. Even the weather cooperated by giving us an unseasonably warm, almost Spring-like day. Here are some pictures from the day!






My mom makes these- SO stinking cute! Crafts are my nemesis, but I may attempt making these myself for the next baby shower I'm throwing in May, JUST so I can share the how-to with y'all. They are very Pinterest-worthy if you ask me!


How cute is she?!








haha, love this! What little man doesn't need a moose head in his room?! Nice, Leslie! ;)













After the shower, we went over to K's house to see the nursery! Aside from the rocker and the pad for the changing table, it is completely ready for Little Man's arrival!






You can get these closet organizers on Etsy. Genius!! You know I love some good organization!




We're ready for him to get here now! Moms reading this, have any words of wisdom you'd like to share with Karen?! Do tell! And maybe I'll refer back to this post when we take the plunge one day. ;)

  1. What a cute baby shower! ANd the nursery is precious. Words of wisdom....do what works for YOU and the baby! Even if it seems crazy! Take advice and try it. If it doesn't work, move on to something else. And get the book Baby 411! Most of all write things down because you WILL forget!
