I mentioned in my last post about Christmas cards (which are on their way – yay!) that we had a really busy November. This time of year is always so busy between the holidays, our anniversary and of course, football season, but with a baby on the way, that just added to the hustle and bustle! I already blogged about our anniversary, but since then, we’ve had 2 baby showers, 2 doctor’s appointments, family in town, and a holiday out of town!
First up – the first baby shower, which was thrown my my sister Katie, sister-in-law Kelly, and friend Amy. The baby shower was on the 13th of November and I am finally getting around to sharing pictures!
My sister made the invitations and almost all of the decorations at the shower – she’s so creative!
My sister-in-law made this adorable “bootie bouquet” behind the “cute as a button” chocolates. When I brought them home, Matt seriously thought they were real flowers!
Part of the spread – homemade from scratch cinnamon & caramel rolls courtesy of my dad!
Melissa gets the prize for being the most off on the “guess-the-size” game; my grandma was almost right on (although it does look like she’s a little bit high as she’s going around the bump)
My sweet friend Liz MADE this quilt for Hadley! So precious!
Some of the guests…
Baby James was all tuckered out after all the attention from the ladies
Family shot – my mother-in-law came up from Houston, my mom came up from Austin and my grandma came down from Minneapolis!
Matt and I feel so blessed to have family and friends who care for us and are so excited to celebrate with us during this time! In addition to this shower, Matt’s office threw us a baby shower the following week! Unfortunately, I didn’t get any pictures there, but we had a great time and were so blessed by the people in his office as well!
