Shower #2

This weekend, Pam and Tim threw us a lovely shower, and no offense to Mike, but in his previous blog entry, his brief rant about the naming discussion did not adequately describe how nice the shower was. So here goes...

Here is a picture of the spread, complete with bell pepper flowers, smoked weenies, and a yummy orange punch.

Notice how cute the diaper cake is - by the way, G-Baby's room is brown and blue, so the diaper cake perfectly complements our colors.

Look how cute these cupcakes are! As it turns out, there are definite advantages to having your nanny studying to be a pastry chef!

We played two fun games, one of which was listing all the different ways our lives are going to change once G-Baby arrives. The answers included a lot of sleep deprivation, various bodily fluids projectiled at the face, and a change in, ahem, anatomy. Mike commented that this game is really a game that needs to be played PRIOR to conception. :)

As our guests left, Pam gave everyone bud vases that had brown and blue ribbons tied around the stems. As a sometime event planner myself, I was very impressed - Pam really outdid herself! All in all, Mike and I were very appreciative of all that Pam and Tim did to make the shower a special event for us. Thank you, Schabers!

In other news, Mike and I made a trip to Babies R Us this weekend and bought our car seat and stroller, so now we are officially ready (well, legally ready) to go to the hospital and come home with G-Baby!
