Last Saturday (9th Jan) was my baby shower. Although the day was hot the party went off without a hitch, thanks to Beth, Fee and Namu. Thanks goes out to Beth for the lovely handmade invites (see below), decorating the house and the creative party hats. Thanks to Fee for letting us use her house and the yummy choc-honeycomb mudcake and thanks to Namu for organising and making the delicious food (especially her secret recipe, marinated chicken wings) and for organising the games. With everyone pitching in tidying up was quick and painless and with the abundance of food we were also well fed for the next few days!
The party started at 3.30pm and with all the eating, drinking, game playing and opening pressies we didn’t finish until about 7pm. I received an array of beautiful and useful gifts for baby which were greatly appreciated and will definitely come in handy. Fiona let her creativity shine by making a ‘nappy cake’ with a toy topper and it turned out really well!
This weekend I posted out my baby shower ‘Thank you’ cards and sorted through all the pressies, attempting to arrange them in bub’s room.
For those of you that couldn’t make the party, here a few more of the memorable pics (still waiting on more to be sent to me), including; my big (and rapidly getting bigger) belly, guests, me and my pressies and the famous ‘drinking from only a baby’s bottle’ (thanks Namu)!
I will upload more photos as they come in.
