Baby Shower

As many of you know, last week and weekend I was busy getting ready to throw my sister in law, Gabriella's very first baby shower. Wow, what pressure. Her very FIRST. I have to say that I think it was a success and Gabi ended up getting a lot of wonderful things for her son, Gabriel Scott. I had a wonderful time planning and throwing this baby shower for her. Oh how I have missed my "planning" days. (You may not remember that I used to be a wedding planner and absolutely LOVED it) Anyways, we had a great time... I say WE cause little miss Caitlyn was quite the assistant. Really, Im not just saying that cause I am her mother. A lot of you know how quiet my little miss is when it comes to crowds. Well, she passed out to all the ladies their clothespins for the "dont say baby" game. She also announced the winner in front of everyone, the "guess the amount of gumdrops in the bottle" game. (this game was her idea) She also handed Gabi EVERY present and removed EVERY present once they were opened. She took care of collecting and saving tissue paper and tossing the wrapping paper. I was a proud momma. Below is a picture of Caitlyn and I opening our thank you gift from Gabi. Gabi made the bag and it was full of a couple of fun goodies. :O)

This is me and my sister in law, Gabi. She is two weeks ahead of me. Love this girl, she makes my brother very happy. (YES, I am wearing a skirt. I know, hard to believe)

Sounds like the baby shower was a success! That's so cute that you had your little helper to help you out! Baby showers are fun to give, but lots of work for sure.
