Work Baby Shower!

As if one baby shower wasn't flattering and overwhelming enough, I was completely bowled over with the super sweet ladies at work that threw me another one! (Warning: lots of exclamation points ahead)

Look at that diaper cake! Isn't it amazing? It even had little baby socks rolled into roses. Cutest thing ever!

And the food! So much good food! I got to take the leftovers home and I'm not going to need to cook for a week. (Cameo from my "work mom" Cynthia. Isn't she adorable in her festive pink scarf?)

And super cute party favors for everyone to take. The buckets and bottles are full of mints.


We had a great time! We played a few games, ate the delicious food, and then opened the presents. Lots of cute outfits, receiving blankets, baby socks, and an overly generous amount of giftcards. The people I work with are absolutely amazing. They even made me wear the "mommy bonnet" which is a hat that was tied to my head, and then each time I opened a present, part of the wrapping got attached to the hat. It was ridiculous, but fun. Pictures were taken, but I haven't been able to get ahold of them yet (oh darn!).


And just in case you wanted to see me in my super unflattering maternity uniform, I try not to disappoint.

I wasn't as diligent at taking pictures at this one, but I know lots of other pictures were taken. I'll have to collect them from everyone else. This party was so much fun!


Special thanks goes out to Cynthia, Cathy, and Diane for putting it all together! You ladies are amazing!

Here's what I wore to the baby shower for those that are interested (although clearly that's not the most important part).

I also got mass quantities of the some of the cutest outfits, hair bows, and shoes ever, essentials like bottles, diapers, and wipes, and super soft, snuggly blankets. This baby is already spoiled.

Then everyone walked away with these cute party favors:
