Work Baby Shower

My sweet friends at work threw me a baby shower last night at the office and it was so much fun!  I got so many great things (or I guess I should say Allie got so many great things) and I truly appreciated everyone that came, it really meant a lot!  Here are a few of the highlights:

Yummy Gigi's Cupcakes!

An Edible arrangement w/ white chocolate & coconut covered fruit...Amazing!

So many presents!! I couldn't believe it!!

Not really sure what's happening with the baby doll here, but I found it amusing.

I was so excited Smirn came :)

And look who else showed up for the party....

Welling was a good friend of mine that I worked with and he sadly passed away earlier this year.  For those of you that didn't know Welling, he was quite a character, as you can see from this life size cardboard cutout that we have in our office (which used to be above his desk).  Welling never misses a good party, so it was only fitting that he showed up to my baby shower...and he even brought a gift! (before you get creeped out...Linda actually got this gift from Welling's Estate sale and gave it to Allie as a gift from Welling).   How cool is this????

This is by far the coolest pop up book I've ever seen, Allie is going to LOVE it! I'm pushing 30 and I was highly entertained by it. Here are a couple of the
pages... 

And of course in true Welling fashion, it was signed by the author. Thank you Welling!

This is a Michigan State onesie from Linda V., it's going to make an awesome burp cloth.  Just kidding Linda...I'll let her wear it, but only on days that UT isn't playing.

Speaking of UT, Michelle got Allie her own tailgating chair, how freakin cute is that?!?!

Makes me ready for football season!

Kari gave me this adorable crochet hat & diaper cover for Allie's newborn pictures...her friend sells them on you guessed it, ETSY!! I can't wait to have her pictures made in them! 

Which reminds me that I forgot to take a picture of the knit cocoon that Amanda gave me at the shower last week...also from Etsy and also for her newborn pictures....needless to say, I am super pumped for her newborn pics!

Me & the hostesses, not sure why we decided to stand this way, but just go with it. 

Thank you ladies SOO much, I had a great time!

And just when I thought the party was over, I got home and had two more awesome surprises on my doorstep...they were gifts to Allie from Heather...oh and Allie's mattress that I had ordered but I won't bore you with a picture of that, I'll just show you the good stuff!

Bunny robe with Allie's name, but I couldn't figure out how to

take a good picture of it to show you just how cute it is

so I'm also going to show you the picture from PB because it makes me smile :)  Can't

wait for Allie wear it!

Doesn't that make you want to talk baby talk?  Well it does me.

And Allie's step stool, adorable!!



Thank you again to Heather, Michelle, Linda & Sandy for throwing me such a great shower and thank you to everyone who came and for all of the wonderful gifts!!  I got so many cute clothes and lots of necessities!

We also had a Dr.'s appointment this morning and everything looked/sounded great and we are right on track for delivery in or around 6 weeks!!! AHHHHHH, I can't wait!!

Happy Friday, I hope you all have a great weekend!
