Baby Showers

Ok, so I know this is a little out of order, but in November we were able to go home for a week! We had a great visit with both of our families, our best friends Ryan and Sarah and did so much that our time there flew by! We were able to see my grandma in and out of the hospital and I am so grateful for that. I also was fortunate enough to have 2 baby showers! My best friends Sarah and Kristi threw me an adorable shower on Saturday and my mom and sister threw me a great one on Sunday! It was a fabulous weekend I must say! This is at Sarah and Kristi's shower. Kristi Brewer and I, she just had a baby boy in April, she looks amazing! Sarah got onesies for everyone to decorate, they turned out so cute!
One of the games we played was the baby bunting game, where people raced against each other to see who could diaper and swaddle the "baby" the fastest. It was really fun to watch!
Dani made this awesome cake, it was very appropriate for the fall, and SOOO good! She even included some chocolate in it for me!
Dani and her new baby boy Quinn, I can't believe she just had a baby 6 weeks ago!
My friend Michelle is also having a boy, she is due February 22, just a couple of weeks after Hayden is due.
Kristi made this amazing scrapbook for Hayden, Paul was there at the end of the shower to see it. She is amazingly creative and talented.
This is just one of the many things that Sarah got me. She threw a great shower and got us so many amazing things. Somehow we managed to not get one picture together! She is a great friend and I can't thank her enough for all that she does for me.



My mom and sister's shower on Sunday.
This is my mom, or should I say "Grammy" as she wants to be called. Somehow I didn't get a picture with my sister that day either.
My sister made me this adorable diaper cake, I wish I could have kept it in tact to keep in Hayden's nursery, but it didn't travel well :)
My dad made blue punch, it was actually really good, and so cute I had to include it!
The cupcakes were so cute, and yummy too!
Finally, a picture with Sarah. She is pregnant with her second little boy, due March 28th.
Kristi and Braxton, what a cutie! He is such a good baby, we didn't hear a peep out of him the whole shower!
I have to say this will probably be on of the only times that I let people measure my waistline. It was all in good fun though.
The favors were baby bottle candles, super cute.
We got so many gifts, I couldn't believe it. People are so generous! Thank you mom and Ash for such a memorable day.

Paul,
I know this is coming a while after you were out in Raleigh, but I wanted to get your contact information. When you have a moment send me your phone # and address (you have my email, it hasn't changed). Hopefully you will make it out this way again.
