Mine is this Saturday!! It's the first shower that I haven't had to plan or do anything for! LOL.

[readinglove]

Woohoo baby showers!! I have my work one this Friday!

Here are some pics of mine! My mom and sister hosted at my house. They did a Woodland Animals theme. It turned out adorable and baby got a million cute things.






I apologize in advance if the pictures are huge, I'm still trying to figure Imgur out.

[adorebel]

(Ours is woodland animal too - are you doing the nursery the same way?)

Thanks! Our nursery theme is actually hot air balloons (I'll post some pics today in the nursery thread) but I love the woodland animals stuff too. It was hard to pick a theme!

Wow! They did a great job! Love all the details.

[SheilaTheTank]

I'll post them hopefully later tonight. I have none of the pics, so I have to have them sent to me.

rosetyler72, the cuteness!!!

[DanaScullyX]

I will post in a bit! It was so fabulous!

[daydreamsam]

I had my shower on Saturday and it was really, really nice. We had onesie decorating and a really nice lunch at my favorite restaurant. My sisters did a good job of making it special without making me uncomfortable (I don't like being an AW)

[FunniBunni]

Can I play too? No shower for me this time. (2u2) But these are from my last one. I was 37 weeks.

The theme was
"Sugar and Spice? Or Frogs and Snails?"

(This is a page in DD2's baby book)


Everyone had to pick team pink or team blue and put on a name tag declaring their team, it was fun.







ETA: I've had 2 baby showers. One for Baby #1 in 1999, and one for Baby #4 in 2014. (H's 1st baby, and 10rs after my Baby #3)

[iwubrory]

Can't wait to see all of the pics!!
rosetyler72 I really wish I'd had a plate full of glazed twists at my shower! Want!

No shower for me since 3rd baby in 4 years (whoa wording it like that sounds like a lot to me).

[DanaScullyX]

My shower was Saturday! It was book themed and my friends did amazing themed food and decorations.

[adorebel]

DanaScullyX, so awesome! Your hair looks gorgeous, and the themed food is so cool! The cake looks especially awesome. Is it an open fairy tale book? So cool.

Sorry these took so long. I've been trying to scrounge up pics and this what I have so far. The theme was dragons. My mother made all the desserts from scratch and she got the cafe she works for to make the decal for my cake which matches the nursery. She also made chocolate dragon lollipops for favors. I wish I had pics of the real food but all the guests decimated everything. My FIL called them a pack of starving vultures because there was next to no leftovers at the end of the day. I have pics of the aftermath of the cake, it's pretty impressive.

[awkwardturtle]

SheilaTheTank, so so cute! Love the dragon.

[rosetyler72]

SheilaTheTank, LOVE the dragon theme, that is awesome! That cake is adorable.

Yes, it sure was! And square pink cupcakes. All made by my mom.

[adorebel]

Hey everyone! Now that I'm a little less violently ill, here are some photos from my shower!

It was a book themed shower like DanaScullyX 's, so the snacks were all book-related, like "Three Pigs in a Blanket" and "Green Deviled Eggs and Ham," etc. Everyone brought and signed a favorite book from her own childhood, so we have quite a library going for the baby already! The guests made THE CUTEST onesies for the baby by cutting and sticking fabric animals, and everyone wrote her a birthday letter, so she has one to open from a woman who was at the shower for each of her first 17 birthdays! It was really special. Oh, and the first photo is of my mom and me. [PDQ the pics!]

It's funny to think all this fun and loveliness was less than 5 hours before I was puking my brains out haha...

[adorebel]

Oh here are the onesies people made: adorable right?

[rachelilly23]

Cute dress adorebel!

[awkwardturtle]

you have some talented friends with those onesies adorebel- super cute

[rosetyler72]

adorebel ,Wow those onesies are adorable! Looks like a beautiful shower and cute theme! People brought books for mine as well, it is so fun to see what book everyone chooses.

[katespade]

LOVE the squirrel onesies! You are so pretty in your flower dress!

My "friends" shower is Saturday. I will have pictures!

[FunniBunni]

Looks like you had a good time! Everything is super cute.
