Baby Showers for Baby Awesome!

What a weekend! I went home this past weekend to attend baby showers being thrown for my sister and myself. It was a fantastic weekend full of family, friends, and fun! To kick my visit off my mom picked me up from the airport and we went straight to a Mexican restaurant for some delicious queso… my eyes were much larger than my stomach! The showers started Saturday with a joint shower for my sister and I . My aunt’s Laurie and Lynn threw this baby shower for us. My aunts and grandma were able to come from Topeka and Colorado, my family from Minnesota, my grandma, mom, mother-in-law, co-worker Karen and her daughter Mallorie were all able to attend. We had a great time guessing baby foods, eating delicious foods, and open gifts. Thank you to everyone who participated and those who couldn’t make it; you made it a special day!

Sunday my friends put together a shower made just for me  We went to a local Mexican restaurant where we ate queso, a delicious lunch, and tasty cupcakes! As part of the party theme everyone brought a children’s book instead of a card! They know me too well! The baby received such wonderful gifts, while I received wonderful attention! Thank you girls and to everyone who was there and sent love from afar!
