Re: All things baby shower!
Baby #2 due 8/11/2016
Our shower isn't until I'm 36 weeks. The inner planner in me wishes it could have been sooner, but everyone had weddings the other potential weekends. So July 16 it is!

But there were several who also got me additional gifts of their own, planned, and decorated the shower. I have a list of those who got me additional gifts and of course, ones who were behind it all for planning and executing such a delightful event. For these select individuals, I wanted to write more personal cards to each of them with something...I knew a coworker who gave out lotion and lip balm but not sure! Anything else as extra token of appreciation for these coworkers?
The girls had also written on the invite "please bring a children's book with a personal message in lieu of a card.." So we have dozens of books now with special messages from our friends and family. D'aaaaw.

Were it a baby shower for someone you knew, would you pay the park fee to attend?
ETA: The main dishes/meal would be provided, as it is a 2-5p event.
Had my shower this weekend and this was the decorations, baseball themed.

I had my shower this past Saturday. It ended up being a really nice time. Due to my mom's health issues and MIL's lack of involvement, I helped my mom with most of the logistics. There were minimal decorations, but the ones we had were woodland animal themed. We got a lot of the big stuff we needed, which was super helpful. The one thing that we kept getting were a lot of jungle themed items since we had our wedding at a zoo. Thankfully, it is mostly clothes or stuffed animals so the zoo won't be overtaking our home
ETA- No pictures as of yet. A family friend took them for us and wanted to create an album for us. Can't wait to see it!
It looks beautiful! Jadite and Pink accents is perfection in my opinion.

And will be a rush to get what I need after the shower.
Going to get ready but my feet hurt from yesterday. I'll post pics later! Busy busy yet fun day to come, hopefully! After the baby-q, we plan to rest a little and reserved dinner at a cute italian place in Gtown.
DH & I mentioned last night that it sort of feels like our wedding night all over again!
I meant wedding weekend! so thankful for them coming from different states but even though I'm not throwing this event, I still feel very much like a host! Luckily, there are lots of wineries and breweries out in VA so we'll take them there tomorrow to explore while I sip on water!
