My Baby Shower PIP

Bridezilla in Training · April 2011

Hey ladies -- My baby shower on Saturday afternoon was absolutely wonderful!! I had family and friends who even made 4+ hour trips just to see me. I definitely felt the love! The party was at La Terrazza and the food (as always) was delicious. My Mom and sisters did a fabulous job with the planning. We played The Price is Right which I've never seen before at a shower and instead of Bingo, they set a timer for 15 minutes -- every time the timer went off, the owner of the present I was opening won a prize. It was a packed house and we got everything we could have ever needed for Baby H and more! I can't believe how fast the party flew by! My oldest nephew helped open up all of my presents... he was too cute! My family surprised me with how talented they are -- we ended up with FIVE handmade blankets and one beautiful quilt that a family friend had made for us. I had endless gift baskets of goodies and an adorable diaper cake that my younger sister had made. My SIL had a clothesline of clothes for Baby H through 12 months. My favorite outfits were the Patriots onesies... I may have lost the baseball war but I win on football! Tom Brady, baby!

I refused to wear reasonable shoes -- they were just too cute!

Despite my family hating chocolate cake, they made sure I'd have my favorite anyway!

Presents galore!

Handmade quilt that we plan to hang in the baby's room.
