Baby Shower for the Little Man

I just had my baby shower on Tuesday night and it was such an encouraging and fun time! I definitely came away feeling loved and very uplifted. It was a great time to have the shower...just inside the four week mark...making me feel like I can make it through the final push. I am so blessed to have wonderful friends, new and old, that inspire me, make me laugh, challenge me, and encourage me all in their own unique ways. Life is definitely rich with such great friends. I am so so grateful for them all.

So, Lindsay, Jai, and Kristen put on the shower and it was AWESOME! Jai, of course, kicked booty on all of the crazy fun decorations and the food was super tasty and the games fun! They thought of all of the things that I love and hold dear to my heart from a food standpoint: Prosecco (yes, I had a glass and LOVED it!), chocolate covered strawberries, cheese (Brie being the highlight of course) and crackers, fruit parfait, and tons more. If only I didn't have a baby taking up most of my belly space....I would have eaten twice as much! We did some fun games and one on the more meaningful side where everyone wrote down one quality that they feel I have that they would hope the little guy would also possess and one quality from a man in their life that they would hope that the little guy would have as well. It was very very encouraging to hear all of the hopes for our little guy, and I pray that our little man is blessed with many of those qualities.

We ended up with so many generous gifts too. The little boy is going to be super stylin' in all of his new clothes. Here are some pictures from the event!

My wonderful friends and family!!!!!








So many fun gifts from generous friends!
