Oh, Baby! {Weekend Baby Shower}

This is the "season of the baby" for many of my girlfriends, and it is quite a BLUE season!  Lots of bouncing baby boys to join our crew, and we are so excited.

Saturday we hosted a baby shower for a very special girlfriend and it was just perfect.  There were eleven hostesses, so we all brought a little bit to the table.  The yarn wreath I made earlier this winter made a repeat performance, this time on the mantel and with a slightly different decoration.

The dining room had a cute diaper cake for mama-to-be...
 

...along with cupcakes and her very favorite, chocolate chip cookies!

We had a mimosa station set up for everyone at the wet bar along with sparkling water and a separate coffee station.

We also used the pacifiers I used at the previous shower.  These were a crazy lucky find at the dollar store, and they make such a fun impact when strung with fishing line from a chandelier!

Mommy arrived looking oh-so-cute in her yellow tights and fuschia flats!



We kept the brunch theme and had some breakfast casseroles and fresh fruit.



Kim was shocked when we surprised her with a Bob Stroller.

Even though I'm not a mom, I just love oohing and aahing over all of the sweet baby things!  I used to babysit all of the time and was a nanny all throughout my college summers.  Kiddos absolutely steal my heart.  I feel so fortunate that we have a lot of new little people that are joining our circle of friends.

 

Congrats Kim, can't wait to meet that precious boy and kiss his sweet face!
