Baby Shower hosted by my High School Friends!

I have a group of friends from high school who are great!  These are the kind of friends that you could go 1 hour or 3 years without talking to and then meet up and pick up where you left off.  I know that if I truly needed something these are the people I could call.. Honestly with this being baby #5 I did not expect a baby shower from anyone.  Imagine my surprise when I ended up with 2 baby showers.  The surprise one that I wrote about before and this one that I knew about ahead of time.  A few weeks ago I got an email asking when would be a good time for me as the girls wanted to throw me a baby shower.  Call it hormones of a pregnant woman but I was so touched I cried.  I really was not expecting anything more than maybe a dinner after baby arrived to greet the new little one.  Anyways, this group of ladies truly were a blessing and I love them all!  Here are a few pictures.

Here is the whole gang..  Well most of the gang a couple of ladies couldn't make it.  I told them we really should have a high school picture to go with this one.. lol








This is the lovely lady who put it all together.  She sent the invites and got all of the food together.
Thank you to this friend for offering her home as the meeting place for us to have the shower.

And my favorite..  Present Time! Present Time! Open a Present and see whats inside..  LOL  If you are wondering where that came from it was too many days watching Blues Clues when the twins were small..  Crazy Blues Clues Never goes away!!





Last but not least..  It was found out that I really wanted this diaper bag but would probably never buy it for myself so they all pitched in and got it for me.  I was beyond thrilled.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!


Thanks Ladies for being such special friends.  I love you guys!!  We need to get together more often!

A Surprise Baby Shower!

A few of my friends decided to have a surprise baby shower for me as well as for another mutual friend.  Jo is expecting her baby in early July and I am due in Late May or early June.  Jo and I both arrived at the "Baby Shower" thinking it was for the other person.  I brought gifts for her and W and she brought gifts for me and Baby B.  We were equally surprised to find out the shower was for all 4 of us!!

The Present and Cake table. The cake on the left is an elephant diaper cake for Jo.


I made Jo a baby carry wrap and gave her a bath towel set.  She also got a gift card from the group.

They were great they got the last two things I really wanted my Space saving High chair.

And..  My travel Swing that uses my car seat I was Thrilled!!!

It is wonderful to have such great friends!!  Thank you guys!!
