Baby Shower

On Saturday I had the privilege of co-hosting a baby shower for my brother in law and sister in law on Saturday. This is their second baby, but under the circumstances of their daughters birth, we were so very excited to make it to this point and have a shower!

I do SO love a party! I love to host, organize, plan, put on and in general be part of a party! I really enjoy all the finer details of making a plan! This was an especially fun party because I wasn't totally responsible for 100% of it! I had help from David's Aunt and my Mother in Law. I thought we did a pretty good job of pulling a wonderful party together.

 I've attached some (ok a TON) of pictures. I did 4 different "diaper things", 2 diaper cakes, a tricycle and a motorcycle. We used this as center pieces and then Robert and Amy were able to take them home and all the diapers(well almost all should be)are usable. So they make great gifts as well as great decorations!

I cannot take credit for coming up with these ideas, I found them online, but I did make each one by myself, with a little help from Avery!

The first attempt - diaper motorcycle!

The first diaper cake.

The tricycle.

I think this was my favorite!


The "bath toy" cake!

the tricycle with it's rider! Amy's using monkey's in the nursery!

the completed diaper cake, flowers and all!


Gotta have some pretty fruit at a shower!

The candy was the guest favor. It looked really pretty! 





I have some pictures also of the cupcakes that Heather, David's cousin's wife made for the shower! They were not only beautiful but probably the best tasting cupcakes I've ever had! SO GOOD!!!

Pretty and delicious!

Wow, these baby shower cakes are just so fabulous. That tricycle cake is my favorite among all and I am definitely going to have this for my sister’s weekend baby shower that I am going to host at one of the Los Angeles venues. It is really exciting time for all of us. I am sure that it is going to be a fun bash.
