baby shower #2

This past Saturday I had my second Baby Shower!  My sister in law, Cindy, was sweet enough to host one for me and invited Rob's side of the family to attend.  I was so excited for this shower for a bunch of reasons--one of them being that there would be pimento cheese sandwiches. :)

Here is a view of the top of the centerpieces.  Cindy wrapped mini candy bars with a baby dern wrapper.  Everything also had a rubber ducky theme which was so cute!

Cindy also covered tic tacs with labels.  Here is the front....

And here is the back!  Isn't this a cute idea?!

Cindy also made these yummy caprese skewers!  This is absolutely one of my favorite foods--so so delicious!  I didn't get a picture, but in the back you can see my special gluten-free plate of food that Cindy set aside for me.  I definitely ate all of it--plus the 3 extra cupcakes!! They were seriously the best GF cupcakes I've had.  So yummy!

Here is the cupcake tower--aren't the cupcake toppers so cute?  I love that everything included the theme--so cute!  And, I know that Cindy put so much time and effort into it. :)

Cindy also included all of my bump pictures on a bulletin board.  There are several people in Rob's family who I don't see regularly so this was the perfect way for them to see the bump's progression.  We also had a good time discussing which pictures I looked bigger/smaller in. ;)

My sweet sister Rachel helped me keep track of the gifts as I opened them.  Little Bit received so many wonderful gifts including the stroller/car seat combo, an activity mat, exersaucer, some fun Baby Einstein videos, and a Gymboree gift card.  I am excited to put that to use once I know if LB is a boy or girl! :)

Rob stopped by the shower at the end to help us load everything up.  Several of the gifts were pretty heavy so I am very thankful he was there! :)

I love this picture of my mom, me, and Rob's mom! :)

I love this picture too!  Our niece, Cindy, my mom, me, Rob's mom, and my sister! I am so thankful each of them were there to help us celebrate.  Isn't my niece awesome--I love her side ponytail so much!

The baby shower was such a fun day and I loved getting to spend time with so many ladies in Rob's family.  I am so thankful for Cindy who threw such a fun shower!  We also played a few games that were fun.  One of them was writing down words of wisdom to Rob and I on one side and then guessing the gender on the other.  I was surprised the count was so close---9-7 boy!  :)
