July Recap

At the beginning of July, my oldest friend had her baby shower. She and I have been friends since the first week of kindergarten!

Comparing the bumps… Can you believe that our due dates are only 4 weeks apart??

For her gift, my mom¸ sister, and I all pitched in and made her a diaper cake:

At the end of July, we celebrated my nieces second birthday. She is really into Minnie Mouse right now, so that was the theme that my sister decided to go with.

My mom made the cake – isn’t she amazing!

The birthday girl had an announcement to make during the party!

Not sure if you can read her shirt, but it says “Big Sis”… I’m going to be an aunt again!!!

For some reason I can’t seem to remember what else happened in July, but I do remember being really busy… Guess I just forgot to take pictures of everything else.

Can you believe that we are in August already?!?!?

My First Baby Shower

Two weekends ago, my sister, dad, and step mom threw me a baby shower in my hometown. I have to admit, that it could not have been any more perfect.

We chose the theme based on the location. My dad has a hookup at the local Single A Baseball Park, so we had the shower in their Hall of Fame Club.

Tiny Prints just so happened to have pink baseball invitations that went perfectly with our theme:

 We used all different sizes of mason jars for the décor:

And we even used them for the drinks:

For dessert I made petite cheesecakes ­ - some topped with fruit and others topped with candy:

We also made cookies in mason jars as give aways for each of the guests:

 

Unfortunately, my sister has the rest of my pictures from the day, so I will have to post a part 2 in the near future…

Like I said, the day couldn’t been better… I am so blessed to have such great people in my life!
